BC182G

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The BC182G is a PNP silicon epitaxial planar transistor manufactured by onsemi. It is housed in the SOT-89 surface-mount package, designed for low-power applications. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 50 V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 1 A. The device features a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 110 at IC = -100 mA. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C and is available in tape-and-reel packaging.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout orientation and electrical grade. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required hFE binning and packaging format. Confirm compliance with current environmental directives such as RoHS and REACH requirements before finalizing procurement specifications.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a PNP transistor with 1 A current capacity and 50 V breakdown voltage is required in an SOT-89 footprint. Consider the thermal resistance of the SOT-89 package for heat dissipation needs. Verify that the minimum hFE meets the circuit's drive requirements. Compare against alternative packages if higher current or different mounting styles are necessary.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

The BC182G belongs to the family of general-purpose PNP bipolar junction transistors offered by onsemi. These devices are engineered for use in consumer electronics and industrial equipment where reliable switching and amplification are needed. The SOT-89 variant provides a compact solution compared to through-hole alternatives while maintaining robust electrical performance for standard analog and digital interface applications.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Consult the official onsemi cross-reference documentation for verified substitutes. Potential equivalents may include other PNP transistors with similar 50 V/1 A ratings in SOT-89 packages, such as the BC327 series variants or compatible parts from other manufacturers, provided pinouts and electrical limits match exactly.
