Product details
Overview
BC807-16W E6327 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon general-purpose audio-frequency bipolar junction transistor with hFE = 100–160 (at IC = 100 mA, VCE = 1 V), VCEO = 45 V, IC = 500 mA, and VCE(sat) ≤ 0.7 V (at IC = 500 mA, IB = 50 mA). It operates in SOT-323 (SC-70) package and is used in low-voltage switching and linear amplification stages of power management and signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BC807-16W E6327 datasheet, BC807-16W E6327 pinout, BC807-16W E6327 application, or BC807-16W E6327 equivalent, key selection criteria include DC current gain group (hFE-grp. 16), thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 80 K/W), RoHS-compliant SOT-323 footprint, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT is optimized for linear and switching operation in ambient temperatures up to +150 °C, with guaranteed hFE spread across three gain groups (16/25/40) and specified saturation behavior at high collector currents. Its complementary NPN counterparts are BC817-16W/BC818-16W.
The device features low VCE(sat) and VBE(sat) under forced β = 10 conditions, enabling efficient low-side switch drive and emitter-follower buffer designs. Thermal derating curves confirm stable operation up to TS = 130 °C for the W-suffix variant.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in open-base configuration |
| hFE (IC = 100 mA) | 100–160 - Confirmed DC current gain range for biasing stability in amplifier and switch applications |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.7 V @ IC = 500 mA, IB = 50 mA - Low saturation voltage enables <100 mW conduction loss in switching mode |
| Ptot (TS ≤ 130 °C) | 250 mW - Total power dissipation limit at solder point temperature, defining thermal design margin |
| RthJS | ≤ 80 K/W - Junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance, critical for PCB copper area sizing |
| fT | 200 MHz - Transition frequency confirming usable bandwidth up to ~20 MHz for small-signal amplification |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements (HTOL, TC, HTRB, etc.) |
Pinout & Package
BC807-16W E6327 is housed in a RoHS-compliant SOT-323 (SC-70) plastic surface-mount package with gull-wing leads and standard tape-and-reel packaging (E6327 designation indicates reel size and orientation).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | E | Current sink terminal; connects to higher potential node in PNP operation; requires proper current limiting |
| 2 (Base) | B | Control input; forward-biased to turn on device; typical drive current 5–50 mA for full saturation |
| 3 (Collector) | C | Current source terminal; connects to load and supply rail; handles up to 500 mA continuous current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High current gain group (hFE-grp. 16) | Guaranteed 100–160 at 100 mA ensures predictable biasing without gain binning in production |
| Low VCE(sat) at high IC | ≤ 0.7 V at 500 mA enables <0.35 W conduction loss in saturated switch mode |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood and body-control modules requiring extended lifetime reliability |
| SOT-323 footprint | 0.65 mm pitch, 2.1 × 1.25 mm outline - compatible with high-density PCB layouts and automated placement |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP general-purpose transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-16 LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | Same hFE group and SOT-23 package; RthJA ≈ 300 K/W vs. 350 K/W for BC807-16W; no AEC-Q101 claim | Not qualified for automotive; suitable for commercial-grade consumer power switches | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and SOT-23 thermal performance is acceptable |
| MMBT3906LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | Lower IC (200 mA), lower VCEO (40 V), same SOT-23; hFE = 100–300 (wider spread) | Limited to low-power signal switching; unsuitable for 500 mA loads or 45 V systems | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-current (<150 mA) applications where gain consistency is secondary |
Compared with BC807-16W E6327, BC807-16 LT1G offers identical gain but lacks automotive qualification and uses SOT-23 (higher thermal resistance), while MMBT3906LT1G trades current capability and voltage rating for wider gain tolerance and lower cost-neither matches the combined 500 mA/45 V/AEC-Q101 specification set.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for BC807-16W E6327?
The maximum continuous collector current is 500 mA at TS ≤ 130 °C. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area for heat dissipation and accounts for thermal derating above that temperature. Peak pulsed current reaches 1000 mA with duty cycle ≤ 2% and pulse width < 300 µs.
Is BC807-16W E6327 pin-compatible with BC807-16?
Yes, both share identical pinout (E-B-C) and SOT-323 package outline, but BC807-16W has improved thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 80 K/W vs. ≤ 215 K/W for BC807-16) due to enhanced internal construction and is rated for higher power dissipation at elevated solder-point temperatures.
Does BC807-16W E6327 support automotive applications?
Yes-it is explicitly qualified to AEC-Q101 standards, including high-temperature operating life (HTOL), temperature cycling (TC), and highly accelerated stress test (HAST), making it suitable for under-hood and body-control applications in passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles.
How does the "W" suffix affect thermal performance?
The "W" suffix denotes a version optimized for higher thermal performance: RthJS ≤ 80 K/W (vs. ≤ 215 K/W for non-W variants) and Ptot = 250 mW at TS = 130 °C (vs. 330 mW at TS = 79 °C for standard BC807-16). This enables sustained operation in thermally constrained environments.
