Product details
Overview
BC846PNH6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a dual NPN/PNP silicon bipolar transistor array in a single SOT-363 (SC-74) package, designed for audio-frequency input stage and driver applications. It features high DC current gain (hFE = 200–450), low collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(sat) ≤ 300 mV at IC = 10 mA), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the BC846PNH6327XTSA1 datasheet, BC846PNH6327XTSA1 pinout, BC846PNH6327XTSA1 application, or BC846PNH6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual complementary topology, galvanic isolation between transistors, VCEO = 65 V (NPN) / 45 V (PNP), thermal resistance RthJS ≤ 140 K/W, and RoHS-compliant Pb-free packaging.
Technical Context
This dual-transistor array integrates electrically isolated NPN and PNP devices on one die, enabling push-pull or complementary pair configurations without external isolation. Its design supports linear amplification and switching in low-power analog stages, with matched hFE and VBE(sat) characteristics across both transistors under identical bias conditions.
The device operates over −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and sustains pulsed collector currents up to 200 mA (tp ≤ 10 ms). Thermal performance is characterized by RthJS ≤ 140 K/W, validated per JEDEC JESD51-14 standards for SOT-363 mounting on standard PCBs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO (NPN) | 65 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in NPN section |
| VCEO (PNP) | 45 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in PNP section |
| hFE (IC = 2 mA) | 200–450 - Ensures stable small-signal amplification with minimal base drive current |
| VCE(sat) (IC = 10 mA) | ≤ 300 mV - Low conduction loss in switching applications, reducing power dissipation |
| Ptot (TS ≤ 115 °C) | 250 mW - Total package power limit under defined board thermal conditions |
| fT | 250 MHz - Supports audio-frequency amplification and fast switching up to ~100 MHz |
| RthJS | ≤ 140 K/W - Predictable junction-to-solder-point thermal path for thermal design margining |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 (SC-74) 6-pin plastic surface-mount package with gull-wing leads, 0.65 mm pitch, and exposed thermal pad not present. Pin 1 marked with dot or bevel; orientation follows standard JEDEC MO-178.

| 2 (B1) | Base of NPN transistor (TR1) | Control input requiring ~0.65 V forward bias to activate TR1 |
| 3 (C2) | Collector of PNP transistor (TR2) | Current source node for second transistor; connects to positive rail in high-side switch |
| 4 (E2) | Emitter of PNP transistor (TR2) | Primary current source node; tied to VCC in common-emitter amplifier |
| 5 (B2) | Base of PNP transistor (TR2) | Inverted control input; pulled low to turn on TR2 |
| 6 (C1) | Collector of NPN transistor (TR1) | Current sink node; connects to load or next stage collector load resistor |
Key Features

| Low VCE(sat) | ≤ 300 mV at IC = 10 mA ensures <10 mW conduction loss per transistor in linear operation |
| Pb-free & RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU; compatible with lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260 °C) |
| High fT | 250 MHz transition frequency supports stable gain in 20 kHz audio band with >40 dB margin |
Applications
| Audio Input Stage | Automotive Door Module Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Pre-amplifier stage for microphone or line-level signal conditioning in infotainment head units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual transistor provides NPN-based common-emitter gain and PNP-based level-shifting buffer in single footprint. Use Value: Reduces PCB area by 50% vs. discrete dual-transistor solution while maintaining matched hFE and thermal tracking. | Use Scenario: Driving LED indicators and small solenoids in vehicle door latch and window control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN switches ground path for LEDs; PNP sources current to solenoid coils via open-collector interface. Use Value: Eliminates need for external pull-up resistors and reduces BOM count by integrating complementary drivers. |
| Low-Power Sensor Interface | Industrial Push-Pull Output |
Use Scenario: Amplifying and buffering output from thermistor or Hall-effect sensors in HVAC control boards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN amplifies sensor voltage; PNP buffers output to drive 10 kΩ ADC input with unity gain and low offset. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity across −40 °C to +105 °C with <0.5% gain drift due to matched transistor parameters. | Use Scenario: Generating clean square-wave outputs for PLC digital I/O modules interfacing with 24 V industrial sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Complementary pair delivers rail-to-rail swing with <100 ns rise/fall times into 1 nF load. Use Value: Achieves <5 ns propagation skew between NPN and PNP edges, critical for timing-critical logic translation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual complementary transistor array applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC847PNH6327XTSA1 | VCEO = 45 V (NPN), lower max voltage rating than BC846PN's 65 V | Suitable only where supply rails ≤ 30 V; not recommended for 48 V automotive subsystems | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin requirement and system VCC < 36 V |
| MBT3904DW1T1G | hFE min = 100 (vs. 200), higher VCE(sat) (max 300 mV at IC = 50 mA) | Lower gain and higher saturation voltage reduce efficiency in low-IB designs | Prefer for legacy designs already qualified with ON Semiconductor footprint; verify hFE distribution impact on bias stability |
Compared with BC846PNH6327XTSA1, BC847PNH6327XTSA1 trades voltage headroom for cost, while MBT3904DW1T1G offers broader industry adoption but requires redesign of base bias networks to accommodate lower hFE.

FAQ
Is BC846PNH6327XTSA1 pin-compatible with BC847PNH6327XTSA1?
Yes, both share identical SOT-363 pinout (E1-B1-C2-E2-B2-C1), but BC846PNH6327XTSA1 has higher VCEO (65 V vs. 45 V) and higher hFE minimum (200 vs. 110). Substitution requires verifying voltage stress margins and gain-dependent bias stability in the target circuit.
What is the maximum continuous collector current per transistor?
The absolute maximum continuous collector current is 100 mA per transistor, as specified in the "Maximum Ratings" table. Derating applies above TS = 115 °C; at 100 °C board temperature, usable IC drops to ~65 mA to maintain Ptot ≤ 250 mW and Tj ≤ 150 °C.
Does BC846PNH6327XTSA1 support hot-swap or in-circuit replacement?
No - it is not designed for hot-swap operation. The device lacks ESD protection diodes on base terminals and has no built-in current-limiting features. Board-level TVS and series resistors are required if live insertion is needed in field-service scenarios.
How does the galvanic isolation between TR1 and TR2 affect layout?
The internal isolation allows independent grounding of each transistor's emitter, enabling split-rail or floating bias configurations. Layout must maintain ≥0.2 mm clearance between E1 and E2 traces to preserve isolation integrity, especially in high-voltage sensing applications where creepage distance matters.
