Product details
Overview
BC847BPNH-QX from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101-qualified NPN/PNP general-purpose double transistor in SOT363 (SC-88) package, rated for 45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, and 175 °C junction temperature. It integrates matched gain (hFE = 200–450 at IC = 2 mA), low VCE(sat) (200–300 mV at IC = 100 mA), and mutual interference isolation - used in automotive body control modules for dual-signal level shifting and complementary switching.
For engineers reviewing the BC847BPNH-QX datasheet, BC847BPNH-QX pinout, BC847BPNH-QX application, or BC847BPNH-QX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating curves, automotive qualification status, and real-world use cases in dual-transistor configurations without component duplication.
Technical Context
This dual transistor contains electrically isolated NPN (TR1) and PNP (TR2) die in a single TSSOP6 package. TR1 exhibits fT = 100 MHz at IC = 10 mA and VCE = 5 V; TR2 delivers comparable fT under negative bias with symmetrical noise figure (NF ≈ 3.1–3.3 dB).
Each transistor supports independent biasing with no shared terminals: emitter-base and collector-base breakdown voltages are specified separately (V(BR)EBO = 7 V, V(BR)CBO = 50 V per device), and thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 170 K/W enables high-density PCB layouts with localized solder-point cooling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in open-base configuration, enabling use in 36 V automotive supply rails. |
| IC | 100 mA - Continuous DC collector current rating per transistor, sufficient for driving LEDs, small relays, and logic-level interface loads. |
| hFE | 200–450 - Closely matched DC current gain across both transistors at VCE = 5 V, IC = 2 mA, reducing calibration overhead in differential amplifier or mirror circuits. |
| VCE(sat) | 200–300 mV - Low saturation voltage at IC = 100 mA, IB = 5 mA, minimizing conduction loss in high-efficiency switching nodes. |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - Maximum junction temperature, validated per AEC-Q101, supporting under-hood operation without forced cooling. |
| Rth(j-a) | 375 K/W - Per-device thermal resistance on FR4 PCB, defining power derating slope (see Fig. 1) for ambient temperatures above 25 °C. |
| Cc | 1.2 pF (TR1), 1.8 pF (TR2) - Collector capacitance at 10 V reverse bias, critical for high-frequency stability in oscillator or RF detector front-ends. |
Pinout & Package
SOT363 (TSSOP6) plastic surface-mount package: 6-pin, 0.65 mm pitch, 2.1 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm body. Pin 1 marked by index notch; lead finish: tin-plated.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | E1 (emitter of TR1) | Emitter terminal of NPN transistor - connects to ground or low-side return path in common-emitter switching. |
| 2 | B1 (base of TR1) | Base terminal of NPN transistor - accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible drive current (IB ≤ 5 mA typical for full saturation). |
| 3 | C2 (collector of TR2) | Collector terminal of PNP transistor - ties to positive rail in high-side switch configurations with active pull-down. |
| 4 | E2 (emitter of TR2) | Emitter terminal of PNP transistor - connects to VCC in emitter-follower or complementary output stages. |
| 5 | B2 (base of TR2) | Base terminal of PNP transistor - driven low to enable conduction; compatible with open-drain microcontroller outputs. |
| 6 | C1 (collector of TR1) | Collector terminal of NPN transistor - routes switched load current to ground, supporting up to 100 mA continuous duty. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No mutual interference | Electrically isolated NPN and PNP die eliminate crosstalk in mixed-signal timing paths or feedback loops. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Stress-tested for automotive environments including temperature cycling, HAST, and ESD (±2 kV HBM), ensuring reliability in BCM and lighting control units. |
| Low VCE(sat) | 200 mV typical at IC = 100 mA reduces power dissipation to <100 mW per transistor, easing thermal management in space-constrained modules. |
| Closely matched hFE | 200–450 range maintained across both transistors at same test conditions, enabling precise current mirroring without external trimming. |
| High-temperature operation | Functional performance guaranteed up to Tamb = 175 °C, allowing placement near power converters or engine-control ICs without derating penalties. |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module Switching | Industrial IO Expander Level Shifting |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Controlling window lift motors and mirror actuators via MCU GPIOs in a compact door module PCB. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN (TR1) switches ground path for motor driver enable; PNP (TR2) pulls up diagnostic LED anode when fault detected. Use Value: Dual topology eliminates need for separate discrete transistors, saving 2.5 mm² board area and reducing BOM count by one component. |
Use Scenario: Translating 3.3 V logic signals from an FPGA to 5 V/12 V industrial sensors and solenoids. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR1 acts as low-side level shifter (3.3 V input → 5 V sink); TR2 serves as high-side translator (3.3 V active-low → 12 V source). Use Value: Matched hFE ensures consistent edge timing between rising/falling transitions, avoiding signal skew in time-critical IO expansion. |
| LED Driver Complementary Pair | DC-DC Converter Feedback Amplifier |
|
Use Scenario: Driving RGB indicator LEDs in medical handheld devices requiring precise brightness control and low EMI. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR1 (NPN) sinks LED cathode current; TR2 (PNP) sources current to anode in constant-current mirror configuration. Use Value: Low collector capacitance (1.2–1.8 pF) minimizes switching transients, reducing conducted EMI during PWM dimming at 1–5 kHz. |
Use Scenario: Implementing error amplification in isolated flyback converter feedback loop with optocoupler interface. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR1 forms NPN leg of differential pair; TR2 provides PNP reference leg - both biased at 2 mA for stable hFE-based gain. Use Value: Closely matched hFE and thermal tracking (ΔT < 2 °C at 100 mW) maintain loop gain accuracy across –40 °C to +125 °C operating range. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN/PNP dual transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC847BSH-Q | NPN/NPN configuration only; lacks PNP half; identical VCEO, IC, and hFE specs. | Restricted to push-pull NPN-only topologies; cannot replace BC847BPNH-QX in complementary switching or level-shifting where PNP sourcing is required. | Select only when circuit requires two matched NPNs and no high-side sourcing capability. |
| BC857BSH-Q | PNP/PNP configuration only; no NPN half; same voltage/current ratings but inverted polarity behavior. | Supports dual high-side switching only; unsuitable for low-side sink + high-side source combinations essential in H-bridge drivers or bidirectional IO. | Choose only for applications needing dual PNP sourcing with no NPN functionality - e.g., redundant power rail monitoring. |
Compared with BC847BPNH-QX, BC847BSH-Q omits the PNP transistor needed for true complementary operation, while BC857BSH-Q removes the NPN half required for ground-referenced switching - making neither a functional substitute in mixed-polarity designs.

FAQ
Is BC847BPNH-QX pin-compatible with BC847BPN?
Yes - BC847BPNH-QX uses the same SOT363 (TSSOP6) package and identical pinout (E1-B1-C2-E2-B2-C1) as non-automotive BC847BPN. The "-QX" suffix denotes AEC-Q101 qualification and enhanced traceability; all mechanical and electrical interfaces remain fully compatible.
What is the maximum allowable power dissipation at 100 °C ambient temperature?
At Tamb = 100 °C, the per-device power dissipation limit is 165 mW, derived from the 375 K/W Rth(j-a) curve (Fig. 1): Ptot = (Tj(max) − Tamb) / Rth(j-a) = (175 − 100) / 375 = 0.2 W, derated to 165 mW per transistor for safety margin in sustained operation.
Can BC847BPNH-QX be used in linear amplifier configurations?
Yes - its hFE stability (200–450 over IC = 0.1–10 mA), low noise figure (1.7–3.3 dB), and tight VBE matching support Class-A small-signal amplification. However, thermal resistance limits continuous linear use above ~50 mW per transistor without heatsinking.
Does BC847BPNH-QX support reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020?
Yes - the device is qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260 °C, 20–40 s above 217 °C) per JEDEC J-STD-020D. Figure 20 provides the recommended reflow solder land pattern (2.35 mm × 0.4 mm pads, 0.6 mm spacing), and the tin-plated terminations ensure robust wetting and intermetallic formation.
