BC847A

The Nexperia BC847A is a general-purpose NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) housed in an SC package. This component is designed for a wide range of electronic applications requiring reliable signal amplification and switching.

Key electrical specifications include a maximum Collector-Emitter Voltage (Vceo) of 45V and a maximum Collector Base Voltage (Vcbo) of 50V. The transistor can handle a continuous Collector Current (Ic) of up to 100mA and features a transition frequency (fT) of 100MHz. The Collector Emitter Saturation Voltage (Vce(sat)) is a maximum of 600mV at typical operating conditions.

With a maximum operating temperature of 150°C and a minimum of -55°C, the BC847A is suitable for use in diverse environmental conditions. The device has a maximum power dissipation rating of 2.4mW, with a nominal power dissipation of 150mW. Its 3-terminal configuration and SC package make it compatible with standard surface-mount assembly processes.

This transistor is a common choice for engineers designing circuits that require a dependable small-signal NPN transistor. Its specifications make it suitable for amplification stages, switching applications, and general signal conditioning in consumer electronics, industrial controls, and communication systems.
