Overview
The Nexperia BC816-25VL is an NPN general-purpose transistor housed in a SOT23 (TO-236AB) surface-mount package. It supports a collector-emitter voltage of 80 V and a continuous collector current of 500 mA, with a peak pulse current capability of 1 A. The device offers two DC current gain selections; the BC816-25 variant provides a minimum hFE of 160 at IC = 100 mA and VCE = 1 V. Total power dissipation reaches 250 mW in free air and 345 mW on a standard FR4 PCB. Transition frequency is rated at 100 MHz.
Feature Summary
- High current handling capability for general switching applications
- High voltage rating suitable for automotive board nets
- Two distinct current gain selections available within the series
- Qualified to AEC-Q101 automotive standards
Applications
- General-purpose switching circuits
- Amplification stages
- 48 V automotive board net interfaces
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm packaging details such as reel size or tape width. Confirm that the component meets all required environmental and reliability standards for the intended deployment environment before finalizing procurement orders.
Selection Notes
Select this component when an NPN transistor requires high voltage tolerance alongside moderate current capacity. The BC816-25 variant is appropriate for designs needing higher current gain compared to the BC816-16 option. Ensure thermal management aligns with the specified power dissipation limits under operating conditions.
Part Context
This part belongs to the BC816 series of NPN general-purpose transistors manufactured by Nexperia. The series includes variants with different current gain ranges, specifically the BC816-16 and BC816-25. All members share the same physical SOT23 package and electrical voltage/current ratings, differing primarily in their amplification characteristics.
Replacement Considerations
The BC816-16 serves as a direct functional substitute within the same series, offering identical voltage and current ratings but with a lower minimum DC current gain range.
FAQ
What is the maximum peak collector current for single pulses?
The maximum peak collector current is 1 A for single pulses with a duration of tp ≤ 1 ms.
How does the BC816-25 differ from the BC816-16?
The primary difference is the DC current gain selection; the BC816-25 has a higher minimum hFE (160) compared to the BC816-16 (100) at IC = 100 mA.
Is this component qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the product is qualified in accordance with the AEC-Q101 standard for discrete semiconductors.
