BC847BQCZ

Overview

The BC847BQCZ is a dual NPN general-purpose transistor manufactured by Nexperia. It integrates two NPN transistors within a compact SOT363 (SC-88) surface-mount plastic package. The device supports a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 45 V and a collector-base voltage of 50 V. It handles a continuous DC collector current of 100 mA with a total power dissipation of 200 mW. The component operates across a temperature range from -65°C to +150°C, featuring a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 200 at 2 mA.

Feature Summary

• Integrates two closely matched NPN transistors in a single ultra-small package to reduce board space and component count.
• Provides low collector capacitance and low collector-emitter saturation voltage for efficient switching performance.
• Ensures no mutual interference between the internal transistors, maintaining signal integrity in dense circuits.

Applications

• General-purpose switching applications
• Amplifier circuits
• Digital logic interface stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'QCZ' against official Nexperia documentation to confirm tape-and-reel specifications and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment requirements for the SC-88 footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest datasheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require two matched NPN transistors. The SOT363 package offers superior thermal behavior compared to discrete alternatives. Consider the 45 V rating and 100 mA current limits to ensure operation remains within safe boundaries for the intended application load.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BC847 series of general-purpose NPN transistors. It serves as the dual-transistor counterpart to single units like the BC847B. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems where small form factors and reliable amplification are required.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other BC847B variants in the SOT363 package, such as BC847BP,115 or BC847BS. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter tolerances before substitution.
