Product details
Overview
BC807-25QCZ from Nexperia is a PNP general-purpose bipolar junction transistor 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, high-reliability switching and amplification device in space-constrained consumer and industrial PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the BC807-25QCZ datasheet, BC807-25QCZ pinout, BC807-25QCZ application, or BC807-25QCZ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, side-wettable flank soldering guidance, and direct alternatives with documented hFE and power dissipation differences.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT operates in linear and saturation regions with guaranteed hFE range of 160–400 under pulsed conditions (tp ≤ 300 μs, δ ≤ 0.02), enabling predictable biasing in low-voltage logic-level interfaces. Its −700 mV VCE(sat) at IC = −500 mA / IB = −50 mA supports efficient switching in battery-powered load control circuits.
The DFN1412D-3 package features side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints and delivers 480 mW total power dissipation on 70 μm copper FR4 - 23% higher than standard 35 μm layouts - while maintaining a 1.4 × 1.2 × 0.48 mm footprint and 0.5 mm profile.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −45 V: Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage with base open; defines upper rail limit in high-side switch designs. |
| IC | −500 mA continuous: Sustained collector current capability at 25 °C ambient; enables driving LEDs, relays, or small solenoids directly. |
| hFE | 160–400 at VCE = −1 V, IC = −100 mA: Tight DC current gain bin ensures consistent base drive requirements across production lots. |
| VCE(sat) | −700 mV max at IC = −500 mA, IB = −50 mA: Low saturation voltage minimizes conduction loss and self-heating in switching applications. |
| Ptot | 480 mW on 70 μm FR4: Thermal performance allows higher sustained current vs. legacy SOT-23 packages without heatsinking. |
| Rth(j-a) | 261 K/W on 70 μm FR4: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance confirms suitability for thermally dense layouts with limited airflow. |
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) | Current-controlled input node; requires series resistor to limit IB and ensure hFE-based IC scaling. |
| 2 | Emitter (E) | Common reference terminal for PNP operation; connected to higher potential rail in high-side switch configurations. |
| 3 | Collector (C) | Output current path; sinks load current to ground or lower-potential node when saturated. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Side-wettable flanks | Enables 100% automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joint integrity on bottom terminals - critical for Class II/III reliability screening. |
| Ultra-small footprint | 1.4 × 1.2 mm body area reduces PCB real estate by >50% vs. SOT-23, supporting miniaturized wearables and sensor modules. |
| Low profile (0.48 mm) | Facilitates stacking with thin batteries or conformal coating over components in sealed enclosures. |
| Three hFE bins | BC807-25QCZ's 160–400 hFE range allows precise gain matching in matched-pair amplifier stages or current mirrors. |
Applications
| LED Driver Circuit | Microcontroller GPIO Expander |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving multi-color status LEDs from 3.3 V microcontroller outputs with current limiting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PNP switch sinking LED anode current to ground; configured as low-side active-high driver. Use Value: −700 mV VCE(sat) ensures <10 mW conduction loss per LED at 20 mA, preserving battery life in portable devices. |
Use Scenario: Level-shifting and current boosting for 5 V peripheral enable lines controlled by 1.8 V/3.3 V MCU GPIOs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverting level translator with gain; converts weak MCU output into robust 5 V logic signal. Use Value: 160–400 hFE guarantees reliable turn-on with ≤10 µA base drive, eliminating need for external pull-up resistors. |
| Power Rail Sequencing | Low-Voltage Sensor Interface |
Use Scenario: Enabling auxiliary 3.3 V LDO only after main 5 V rail stabilizes in multi-rail systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch controlling LDO EN pin; base driven by RC-delayed 5 V signal. Use Value: −45 V VCEO provides 10 V margin above 3.3 V rail, preventing breakdown during transient overshoot. |
Use Scenario: Amplifying weak analog signals from MEMS pressure sensors before ADC sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-emitter preamplifier stage with fixed bias network. Use Value: Stable hFE across −55 °C to 150 °C ensures consistent gain calibration in automotive cabin sensors. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-25W | Same hFE (160–400) but in SOT-323 package; 300 mW Ptot on FR4 vs. 480 mW for QCZ. | Larger thermal resistance (329 K/W) limits sustained current in high-density layouts. | Select when legacy SMT placement equipment lacks DFN support or board rework accessibility is prioritized. |
| MMBT3906LT1G | Lower hFE (100–300), same −40 V VCEO, but 310 mW Ptot and no side-wettable flanks. | Not AOI-compatible; requires post-solder X-ray inspection for void detection in production. | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer products where AOI is not mandated and thermal headroom is ample. |
Compared with BC807-25W and MMBT3906LT1G, BC807-25QCZ delivers superior thermal performance and automated process verification - making it optimal for high-volume, space-constrained, and reliability-critical applications where solder joint integrity must be assured without added test steps.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for BC807-25QCZ?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, as defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation beyond this limit risks permanent parametric shift or bond wire failure. Derating begins at 25 °C ambient, with Ptot decreasing linearly to zero at 150 °C for the 70 μm copper FR4 mounting condition.
Does BC807-25QCZ support reflow soldering with standard lead-free profiles?
Yes - the DFN1412D-3 package is qualified for IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D-compliant lead-free reflow. Recommended peak temperature is 260 °C for ≤30 seconds, with ramp rates ≤3 °C/s. The side-wettable flanks ensure solder fillet visibility for AOI validation of all three terminals.
How does the hFE of BC807-25QCZ vary with temperature?
hFE increases with rising junction temperature: typical values rise ~0.5%/°C between 25 °C and 125 °C. Figure 8 shows hFE = ~400 at IC = −100 mA and Tamb = 150 °C, versus ~250 at −55 °C - critical for bias stability in wide-temperature-range sensor front-ends.
Can BC807-25QCZ replace BC807-25 in existing SOT-23 designs?
No - BC807-25QCZ uses the DFN1412D-3 (SOT8009) package, which is physically incompatible with SOT-23 footprints. Pad layout, stencil aperture, and reflow profile differ significantly. A redesign of the PCB land pattern and solder paste stencil is required to migrate from through-hole or SOT-23 variants.
