BC868 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC868 from Philips is an NPN medium power transistor housed in a SOT-89 plastic package. This component is designed for general purpose switching and amplification applications, as well as power applications such as audio output stages.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of up to 20V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 1A. The DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 85 to 375 at IC = 500 mA and VCE = 1V. The transition frequency (fT) is a minimum of 40 MHz at IC = 10 mA and VCE = 5V.

 

The transistor operates within a wide ambient temperature range of -65 to +150 °C. It is mounted in a SOT-89 package, suitable for surface mounting. The PNP complement to the BC868 is the BC869.
