Product details
Overview
BC847BSQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a dual NPN small-signal transistor in SOT363 package, rated for 45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, and 200 mW power dissipation, with hFE = 200–450 at 2 mA/5 V, and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive switching and audio amplifier circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BC847BSQ-7-F datasheet, BC847BSQ-7-F pinout, BC847BSQ-7-F application, or BC847BSQ-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-NPN matching tolerance, VCEO margin for 12 V/24 V automotive rails, thermal resistance (625 °C/W), RoHS/Green compliance, and SOT363 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device integrates two matched NPN transistors in a single ultra-small SOT363 package, enabling compact dual-stage amplification or complementary switching functions without inter-device parameter variation. Its fT = 100 MHz supports AF and low-speed digital signal conditioning up to ~10 MHz.
The transistor features tight DC current gain distribution (hFE 200–450), low VCE(sat) (≤400 mV at 100 mA/5 mA drive), and robust breakdown ratings (VCBO = 50 V, VEBO = 6 V), making it suitable for bias-stable amplifier stages and logic-level interface switching in harsh environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Supports operation across 12 V and 24 V automotive supply rails with safety margin |
| IC | 100 mA - Sufficient for driving relays, LEDs, or pre-driver stages in embedded control |
| hFE | 200–450 - Enables predictable DC biasing in Class-A amplifier or switch saturation design |
| fT | 100 MHz - Allows stable small-signal amplification up to audio band and low-speed digital edges |
| RθJA | 625 °C/W - Requires minimal copper pour on FR4 for thermal management in ambient ≤85 °C |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Meets stress-test requirements for automotive under-hood and infotainment applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT363 - 6-pin ultra-small surface-mount plastic package (2.15 mm × 2.10 mm × 0.95 mm), matte tin terminations, moisture sensitivity level 1, UL 94V-0 rated.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emitter of Transistor 1 | Low-impedance return path for first NPN; tied to local ground or bias network |
| 2 | Base of Transistor 1 | Current-controlled input node; requires series resistor for safe TTL/CMOS drive |
| 3 | Collector of Transistor 1 | Active output node; connects to load (e.g., relay coil, LED anode) and supply rail |
| 4 | Emitter of Transistor 2 | Independent emitter terminal for second NPN; enables dual-channel isolation |
| 5 | Base of Transistor 2 | Second independent control input; allows synchronous or differential drive |
| 6 | Collector of Transistor 2 | Second active output; supports redundant, mirrored, or push-pull configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual matched NPN topology | Enables compact, thermally coupled amplifier pairs or dual-switch logic without discrete pairing |
| VCEO ≥ 45 V | Permits direct use in 24 V automotive systems with >2× voltage headroom against transients |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates reliability for automotive temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD stress per IATF16949 process |
| SOT363 footprint | Reduces board area by ~50% vs. SO-8 or SC-70 dual packages while maintaining solder joint reliability |
| Halogen- and antimony-free "Green" | Meets EU ELV and OEM material declarations requiring <900 ppm Br/Cl and <1000 ppm Sb |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module | Industrial Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Controlling window lift motors and lock actuators via microcontroller GPIOs in door control units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN switch providing isolated, current-amplified drive for 12 V inductive loads. Use Value: Matched hFE ensures consistent turn-on timing between left/right door functions; AEC-Q101 rating guarantees operation at −40 °C to +125 °C junction. | Use Scenario: Level-shifting and buffering analog sensor outputs (e.g., RTD, thermistor) before ADC sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Emitter-follower configuration for low-output-impedance voltage buffering with minimal phase shift. Use Value: fT = 100 MHz preserves signal fidelity up to 20 kHz; low VBE(on) (580–700 mV) minimizes offset error in precision DC paths. |
| Consumer Audio Preamp | Smart Home Relay Driver |
Use Scenario: First-stage amplification in battery-powered portable speaker line-input circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-emitter Class-A amplifier with fixed bias network and emitter degeneration. Use Value: Tight hFE spread reduces gain mismatch in stereo channels; 200 mW PD supports continuous 10 mW output into 32 Ω loads. | Use Scenario: Driving 5 V/12 V reed relays in smart lighting and HVAC control panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Saturation-mode switch with base resistor limiting IBM to ≤200 mA peak. Use Value: VCE(sat) ≤ 400 mV at 100 mA ensures <40 mW conduction loss; SOT363 allows dense relay-array PCB layout. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC847BPDW1T2G | Same hFE range and VCEO, but in SOT-363 with different marking (K1F vs. 3A); identical thermal specs and AEC-Q101 status | No functional difference; used interchangeably in automotive designs where Diodes and ON Semi BOMs coexist | Select when sourcing flexibility across authorized distributors is required without redesign |
| MMDT3904-7-F | Lower VCEO (40 V), same IC and hFE; not AEC-Q101 qualified; RθJA = 650 °C/W | Limited to industrial or consumer use below 12 V; unsuitable for automotive under-hood deployment | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where qualification is not mandated |
Compared with BC847BSQ-7-F, BC847BPDW1T2G offers identical electrical and qualification specs with alternate branding, while MMDT3904-7-F trades automotive reliability for lower cost and slightly reduced voltage margin-making the former a drop-in alternative and the latter a non-qualified fallback.

FAQ
Is BC847BSQ-7-F pin-compatible with BC847C variants?
No. While both share the SOT363 package, BC847BSQ has hFE = 200–450, whereas BC847C variants specify hFE = 420–800. Substituting without circuit validation risks overdrive or insufficient gain in bias-critical applications like linear amplifiers.
What is the maximum allowable PCB trace width for SOT363 thermal relief on 1 oz copper?
For optimal thermal performance per datasheet Note 5, use minimum recommended pad layout with ≥0.65 mm trace width per pin and ≥1.3 mm thermal pad extension under the package body. Wider traces beyond 1.0 mm yield diminishing returns due to epoxy mold compound thermal resistance.
Does BC847BSQ-7-F support pulsed operation above 100 mA?
Yes-peak pulse collector current ICM is rated at 200 mA with duty cycle ≤1% and pulse width ≤10 µs. Exceeding these limits risks localized junction overheating even with adequate average power dissipation.
Can BC847BSQ-7-F be used in common-base configuration?
Yes-its VCBO = 50 V and low CCBO = 2.0–3.0 pF make it suitable for RF coupling and high-frequency current buffers in common-base mode, though fT characterization is specified only for common-emitter test conditions.
