Product details
Overview
BC807-25QC-Q from Nexperia is a PNP general-purpose bipolar junction transistor (BJT) in a leadless DFN1412D-3 (SOT8009) package, rated for −45 V VCEO, −500 mA IC, and DC current gain (hFE) of 160–400 at VCE = −1 V and IC = −100 mA. It serves as a compact, AEC-Q101-qualified switching and amplification device in space-constrained automotive and industrial control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BC807-25QC-Q datasheet, BC807-25QC-Q pinout, BC807-25QC-Q application, or BC807-25QC-Q equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, side-wettable flank soldering guidance, and direct comparison to functionally aligned PNP transistors for design-in validation.
Technical Context
This transistor operates as a medium-power PNP switch with low saturation voltage (VCEsat ≤ −700 mV at IC = −500 mA, IB = −50 mA) and high current capability. Its hFE range of 160–400 supports stable biasing across temperature (−55 °C to 150 °C) and enables predictable gain-controlled amplification in linear and switching modes.
The DFN1412D-3 package features side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI), 0.48 mm profile, and thermal resistance Rth(j-a) of 261 K/W on 70 μm FR4 copper-enabling reliable power dissipation up to 480 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −45 V: Maximum collector-emitter blocking voltage under open-base conditions; defines safe operating voltage in high-side switch configurations. |
| IC | −500 mA continuous: Rated collector current at 25 °C ambient; supports robust load switching in motor drivers and power management stages. |
| hFE | 160–400 at VCE = −1 V, IC = −100 mA: Confirmed DC current gain range enabling precise base drive sizing for predictable switching transitions. |
| VCEsat | ≤ −700 mV at IC = −500 mA, IB = −50 mA: Low saturation voltage minimizes conduction loss and self-heating during active switching. |
| Ptot | 480 mW on 70 μm FR4 PCB: Maximum steady-state power dissipation; determines thermal margin in compact PCB layouts without heatsinking. |
| Rth(j-a) | 261 K/W: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard 70 μm copper; used to calculate junction temperature rise under real-world loading. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified: Meets stress test requirements for discrete semiconductors in automotive applications, including temperature cycling and HTRB. |
Pinout & Package
DFN1412D-3 (SOT8009) is a 3-terminal, leadless, ultra-thin plastic package measuring 1.4 × 1.2 × 0.48 mm with side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible reflow soldering.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base (B) | Control terminal for forward-biased PNP operation; requires negative base current relative to emitter to turn on. |
| 2 | Emitter (E) | Current source terminal in PNP configuration; connected to higher potential rail in high-side switch applications. |
| 3 | Collector (C) | Current sink terminal; connects to load and ground or lower-potential node in typical switching topologies. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Side-wettable flanks | Enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints without X-ray, reducing post-solder defect escape in automotive production lines. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use per stress test requirements-including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling-supporting ASIL-B system integration. |
| 0.48 mm package height | Reduces board stack height in portable and infotainment modules where Z-axis clearance is constrained by mechanical enclosures or stacked PCBs. |
| Three hFE variants | BC807-16QC-Q (100–250), BC807-25QC-Q (160–400), BC807-40QC-Q (250–600) allow precise gain binning for consistent bias stability across production lots. |
| Low VBE | ≤ −1.2 V at IC = −500 mA ensures minimal base drive power consumption and compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V logic-level controllers. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-25,115 (SOT23) | Same electrical specs but in legacy SOT23-3 package; no side-wettable flanks; Rth(j-a) = 350 K/W. | Lacks AOI support and thermal performance; suitable only for non-automotive, low-volume prototyping. | Select when footprint compatibility with existing SOT23 designs is required and AOI is not mandated. |
| MMBT3906LT1G | Lower VCEO (−40 V), lower IC (−200 mA), hFE 100–300; SOT23 package; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Insufficient for 12 V automotive loads above 200 mA; unsuitable for safety-critical or high-reliability deployments. | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer-grade applications below −200 mA and non-automotive environments. |
Compared with BC807-25,115 and MMBT3906LT1G, the BC807-25QC-Q delivers superior thermal performance, AOI-ready manufacturability, and automotive-grade reliability-making it the only option qualified for production deployment in AEC-compliant systems requiring >−400 mA switching.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for BC807-25QC-Q?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, as defined in the limiting values table. Operation beyond this threshold risks permanent degradation of hFE and increased leakage currents. Derating curves in Figure 1 confirm usable power drops linearly above 25 °C ambient, reaching zero at 150 °C on 70 μm FR4 copper.
Does BC807-25QC-Q support reflow soldering with standard lead-free profiles?
Yes-Nexperia specifies full compatibility with JEDEC J-STD-020D.2 lead-free reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤ 30 seconds. The DFN1412D-3 package's side-wettable flanks and thermal mass are validated for uniform wetting and void-free joints using the footprint dimensions in Figure 17.
How does the hFE of BC807-25QC-Q vary with temperature and current?
Figure 8 shows hFE decreases with rising temperature: at IC = −100 mA, hFE is ~320 at 25 °C, ~260 at 150 °C, and ~360 at −55 °C. At IC = −500 mA, hFE drops to 40–100 (typical), confirming gain compression under high-current saturation-critical for accurate base resistor calculation.
Is BC807-25QC-Q pin-compatible with BC807-16QC-Q or BC807-40QC-Q?
Yes-all three share identical DFN1412D-3 (SOT8009) pinout (B-E-C), same marking layout, and identical thermal and mechanical footprints. Only hFE bin differs: 100–250, 160–400, and 250–600 respectively-allowing direct substitution where gain tolerance permits without layout changes.
