BC327-016

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The onsemi BC327-016 is a PNP silicon epitaxial planar transistor designed for amplifier and switching applications. It operates with a collector-emitter voltage of -45 Vdc and supports a continuous collector current of -800 mAdc. The device dissipates up to 625 mW at 25°C ambient temperature, derating by 5.0 mW/°C above this threshold. DC current gain ranges from 100 to 630 at -100 mA collector current. Transition frequency is typically 260 MHz. It utilizes a TO-92 (TO-226AA) package with lead-free options available.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct shipping configuration. The base part number BC327-016 corresponds to bulk shipping in standard TO-92 packages. Suffixes such as ZL1 indicate tape and ammo box configurations, while RL1 denotes tape and reel formats. Confirming the exact suffix is essential for matching physical packaging requirements during procurement.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select the BC327-016 when a PNP transistor with a minimum hFE of 100 and maximum of 630 is required. This variant offers higher gain consistency compared to the standard BC327. Ensure the application stays within the -45 V collector-emitter voltage limit and -800 mA current rating. Consider thermal resistance values if operating near the 150°C junction temperature limit.
