BC817-25,215 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC817-25,215 is an NPN general-purpose transistor from Nexperia, designed for switching and amplification applications. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 45V and a continuous collector current rating of 500mA, with a peak current capability of 1A. The DC current gain (hFE) is specified between 160 and 400 at 100mA and 1V VCE, making it suitable for a wide range of signal conditioning and driver circuits.

 

This transistor is housed in a small SOT23 (TO-236AB) surface-mount package, enabling compact PCB designs. It offers a transition frequency of 100MHz, supporting moderate-speed switching applications. The device is rated for operation up to a junction temperature of 150°C, with a maximum power dissipation of 250mW on a standard FR4 footprint.

 

The BC817-25 is part of the BC817 series and has a PNP complement, the BC807-25. It is commonly used in general-purpose switching, amplification, and interface circuits where moderate current and voltage handling are required.
