BC860B,235

The BC860B,235 is a PNP general purpose bipolar junction transistor manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It is designed for low current and low voltage applications, with a maximum collector current of 100mA and a collector-emitter voltage rating of 45V. The transistor offers a DC current gain (hFE) of at least 220 at 2mA collector current and 5V collector-emitter voltage, ensuring consistent amplification performance.

This transistor features a transition frequency of 100MHz, making it suitable for audio frequency applications and other low-frequency signal processing. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is 650mV at 5mA base current and 100mA collector current, providing efficient switching characteristics. With a power dissipation of 250mW at ambient temperatures up to 25°C, it is suitable for low-power circuit designs.

The BC860B,235 comes in a compact SOT-23 surface mount package (TO-236-3, SC-59, SOT-23-3) with a TO-236AB supplier device package designation. It operates over a junction temperature range of -65°C to 150°C and has a storage temperature range of -65°C to 150°C. The transistor is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental standards.

This PNP transistor is the complement to the NPN BC849 and BC850 series, making it suitable for complementary circuit designs. Its low noise characteristics make it ideal for input stages of audio frequency equipment. The surface mount package enables automated assembly in high-volume production environments.
