BCR162E6327HTSA1

Overview

The BCR162E6327HTSA1 is a PNP silicon digital transistor from Infineon Technologies, housed in an SOT-23 surface-mount package. It integrates two internal bias resistors (R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 4.7 kΩ) to simplify circuit design. The device features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 50 V and a collector current rating of 100 mA. Total power dissipation is rated at 200 mW with a junction temperature limit of 150 °C. Electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) of 20 and a transition frequency (fT) of 200 MHz. The component is qualified according to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive applications.

Feature Summary

• Integrated dual bias resistor network simplifies switching and interface circuit designs
• Qualified for automotive environments under the AEC-Q101 standard
• Designed for high-speed operation with a 200 MHz transition frequency

Applications

• Switching circuits
• Inverter circuits
• Interface circuits
• Driver circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix E6327HTSA1 against official Infineon documentation to confirm packaging details and RoHS compliance status. Ensure that the procurement channel provides valid traceability for components designated as AEC-Q101 qualified. Confirm that the received units match the WUs marking code specified in the datasheet to prevent counterfeit substitution.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a PNP digital transistor with integrated biasing is required for compact designs. The 4.7 kΩ internal resistor values are suitable for standard logic interfacing. Consider the 50 V voltage rating and 100 mA current capability against load requirements. Verify thermal constraints, as the total power dissipation is limited to 200 mW in the SOT-23 package.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BCR162 series of PNP silicon digital transistors manufactured by Infineon Technologies. The series is designed to replace discrete resistor-transistor combinations, reducing board space and assembly costs. The E6327HTSA1 suffix indicates the specific tape-and-reel packaging configuration used for automated surface-mount assembly processes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must be PNP digital transistors with similar internal resistor values (approx. 4.7 kΩ) and compatible voltage/current ratings. Verify pinout compatibility (Base-Emitter-Collector) to ensure direct interchangeability without PCB redesign. Check if alternative parts meet the same AEC-Q101 qualification level if automotive reliability is required.
