BC847BM-TP

Overview

The BC847BM-TP is an NPN signal transistor manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in a surface-mount SOT-323-3 package. The device supports a maximum DC collector current of 100 mA and operates with a collector-emitter voltage of 45 V and a collector-base voltage of 50 V. Key electrical characteristics include a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 200, a transition frequency of 100 MHz, and a power dissipation rating of 200 mW. The component functions within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Single NPN bipolar junction transistor configuration for general-purpose amplification
• Surface-mount SOT-323-3 package design for compact circuit integration
• High DC current gain capability suitable for low-signal applications

Applications

• General-purpose signal amplification circuits
• Switching applications in consumer electronics
• Audio pre-amplifier stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official MCC documentation to confirm exact hFE binning and RoHS compliance status. Confirm package type and lead availability through authorized distributors. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required gain category for the intended application design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small-signal NPN transistor with moderate gain and low power dissipation is required. The SOT-323-3 footprint offers space efficiency compared to larger packages. Consider the 100 mA current limit and 200 mW thermal constraints during circuit design to ensure reliable operation under load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BC847 series of small-signal NPN transistors produced by Micro Commercial Components. The series provides various gain grades to accommodate different amplification requirements. The BC847BM variant specifically targets applications requiring higher current gain performance within a standard surface-mount form factor.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other NPN transistors in the SOT-323 package with similar electrical ratings, such as the BC847B or BC848 series devices from other manufacturers. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
