BC856B-7-F Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC856B-7-F is a PNP small-signal bipolar junction transistor from Diodes Incorporated, designed for general-purpose switching and AF amplifier applications. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -65V and a continuous collector current rating of 100mA, with a power dissipation of 300mW. The device offers a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 220 at 2mA collector current, ensuring consistent performance in low-current signal paths.

 

This transistor is housed in a standard SOT23-3 surface-mount package, making it suitable for automated assembly processes. The package features matte tin plated leads and is rated with a moisture sensitivity level of 1 per J-STD-020. The device is fully RoHS compliant and halogen- and antimony-free, meeting modern environmental standards.

 

Complementary NPN types (BC846–BC848) are available for push-pull or complementary circuit designs. An automotive-qualified version is also available under a separate datasheet (BC856AQ–BC857BQ). The BC856B-7-F is qualified to JEDEC standards for high reliability, making it suitable for a wide range of consumer and industrial applications.
