Overview
The BC846C is a commercial-grade SMD general-purpose NPN transistor manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor. It operates with a collector current of 100 mA and features three distinct DC current gain groups (A, B, C). The device utilizes a SOT-23 or TO-236 package and supports a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW in the commercial grade. Key electrical ratings include a collector-emitter voltage of 65 V, a collector-base voltage of 80 V, and an emitter-base voltage of 6 V. The transition frequency is rated at 100 MHz, and it functions within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.
Feature Summary
- Utilizes copper bond wires for cost-effective commercial applications
- Offers three selectable DC current gain groups for precise circuit matching
- Compliant with RoHS directives without exemptions
Applications
- Signal processing circuits
- General switching applications
- Amplification stages
Procurement Notes
Verify that the specific order corresponds to the commercial grade suffix '-C', which dictates the use of copper bond wires and a 200 mW power dissipation limit. Confirm compliance requirements against RoHS standards and ensure the selected gain group matches the design specifications. Check for AEC-Q101 variants if automotive reliability is required instead of standard commercial performance.
Selection Notes
Select the BC846C when a standard commercial-grade NPN transistor is sufficient for low-power signal processing or switching tasks. Choose this component over industrial grades if the application does not require extended thermal endurance or higher power dissipation limits. Ensure the chosen gain group aligns with the necessary amplification factors for the target circuit design.
Part Context
This component belongs to the BC846 series of universal NPN transistors produced by Diotec Semiconductor. It is designed as a surface-mount alternative to through-hole devices, offering compact integration into modern electronic assemblies. The part is commonly used alongside complementary PNP transistors like the BC856C to form push-pull configurations or differential pairs in consumer electronics.

FAQ
What distinguishes the BC846C from other gain groups?
The BC846C represents the highest DC current gain group among the options, providing a minimum hFE of 420 at IC = 2 mA and VCE = 5 V.
Why does the BC846C use copper bond wires?
As a commercial-grade device, the BC846C utilizes copper bond wires to reduce manufacturing costs compared to the gold bond wires found in industrial or automotive grades.
What is the maximum power dissipation for the BC846C?
The maximum power dissipation for the commercial grade BC846C is 200 mW when mounted on a printed circuit board with the minimum recommended pad layout.
