BC846BW-QX Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC846BW-QX from Nexperia is an NPN general-purpose bipolar junction transistor from the BC846xW-Q series. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 65 V and a continuous collector current of 100 mA. The DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 200 to 450 at a test condition of 2 mA collector current and 5 V collector-emitter voltage, offering flexibility for amplification and switching designs.

 

Electrical characteristics include a transition frequency of 100 MHz, making it suitable for low-frequency switching and signal amplification. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is a maximum of 400 mV at 5 mA base current and 100 mA collector current. The device is housed in a compact SOT323 (SC-70) surface-mount package with three leads, ideal for space-constrained PCB designs.

 

The transistor is qualified according to AEC-Q101, indicating its reliability for automotive electronic systems. Additional ratings include a collector-base voltage of 80 V, emitter-base voltage of 6 V, and a peak collector current of 200 mA. The operating junction temperature range is -65°C to 150°C, with a total power dissipation of 200 mW at 25°C ambient.
