BC807-16LWF

Overview

The BC807-16LWF is a PNP general-purpose transistor manufactured by Nexperia, housed in the SOT323 (SC-70) surface-mounted plastic package. It supports a collector-emitter voltage of -45 V and a continuous collector current of -500 mA. The device offers three DC current gain selections; the '16' variant specifies a minimum hFE of 100 at IC = -100 mA and VCE = -1 V. It is qualified according to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive applications.

Feature Summary

• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive reliability
• Three distinct current gain selections available
• High current capability in compact SMD packaging

Applications

• General-purpose switching circuits
• Amplification stages
• Automotive electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required gain bin and package type. Confirm the component status against the latest manufacturer documentation to ensure availability. Check for any recent revision history updates that may affect pinning or electrical characteristics before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small SC-70 footprint is required for PNP switching or amplification. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the -45 V collector-emitter voltage limit. Verify that the selected gain bin meets the specific drive requirements of the application load.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BC807L family of PNP transistors. It shares the same electrical specifications as the BC807-16L but utilizes the smaller SOT323 package instead of the SOT23. It serves as the PNP complement to the BC817-16W series within the same product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the BC807-16W from other manufacturers with identical SOT323 pinouts and electrical ratings. Cross-reference with BC807-16L if the larger SOT23 package is acceptable for the design.
