BC807-40H-QR

Overview

The BC807-40H-QR is a PNP general-purpose transistor manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 45 V and a continuous collector current of 500 mA. The device operates with a DC current gain (hFE) range of 250 to 600 at -100 mA and -1 V. It has a transition frequency of 80 MHz and a maximum power dissipation of 345 mW in the SOT-23 package. The component is qualified under AEC-Q101 standards for automotive applications.

Feature Summary

• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive reliability
• High current handling capability up to 500 mA
• Three distinct current gain selections available

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'H' against official Nexperia documentation, as standard listings typically use 'QR'. Confirm the package type matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability data for automotive-grade components. Check RoHS compliance status before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high current drive is required in a small surface-mount form factor. The wide hFE range allows flexibility in biasing designs. Verify thermal management capabilities if operating near maximum power dissipation limits. Consider the complementary NPN BC817 series for push-pull configurations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BC807 series of PNP general-purpose transistors produced by Nexperia. The series includes variants with different gain ranges such as BC807-16 and BC807-25. These devices are widely used in consumer and industrial electronics due to their compact size and robust electrical characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include BC807-40-QR from Nexperia or equivalent parts from other manufacturers like ON Semiconductor or Diodes Incorporated. Ensure replacement parts match the 45V rating and 500mA current capacity.
