Product details
Overview
BC847CMB,315 from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101-qualified NPN general-purpose transistor in a leadless ultra-small SOT883B package (1.0 × 0.6 × 0.37 mm), delivering 45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, and DC current gain of 420–800 at VCE = 5 V / IC = 2 mA. It serves as a compact switching and amplification device in space-constrained mobile power management and signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BC847CMB,315 datasheet, BC847CMB,315 pinout, BC847CMB,315 application, or BC847CMB,315 equivalent, this page provides verified package dimensions, thermal resistance (500 K/W), saturation voltage (90–400 mV), noise figure (2–10 dB), and AEC-Q101 qualification status - all critical for automotive-grade PCB layout and reliability validation.
Technical Context
This discrete NPN transistor operates with open-base collector-emitter breakdown up to 45 V and emitter-base voltage limit of 6 V, supporting robust biasing in low-voltage logic interfaces. Its 250 mW total power dissipation at Tamb ≤ 25 °C enables use in thermally constrained modules without forced cooling.
The SOT883B package features three solder lands and a 0.37 mm profile, matching SOT23 power handling while reducing board area by >70%. Reflow soldering is the only recommended assembly method, per Nexperia's validated process guidelines.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage under open-base conditions; defines upper rail limit in switching applications. |
| IC | 100 mA - Continuous collector current rating; sets maximum load drive capability in linear or saturated operation. |
| hFE | 420–800 - DC current gain at VCE = 5 V / IC = 2 mA; determines base drive requirements for reliable saturation. |
| VCE(sat) | 90–400 mV - Collector-emitter saturation voltage across IC = 10–100 mA; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal rise. |
| Rth(j-a) | 500 K/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4 PCB; informs derating curves for ambient temperatures up to +150 °C. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Validated for automotive discrete semiconductor stress testing; supports deployment in engine control, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
SOT883B is a leadless, ultra-small surface-mount plastic package measuring 1.0 × 0.6 × 0.37 mm with three solderable terminals and a transparent top view. Its low height and minimal footprint enable high-density routing in mobile and wearable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control input node; requires current-limited drive to achieve target hFE-based saturation with <200 mV VCE(sat). |
| 2 | Emiter | Reference terminal for bias network; connects to ground or common return path in low-side switch configurations. |
| 3 | Collector | Output node carrying switched load current; routed to high-side supply or active load with ≤45 V potential. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Leadless ultra-small SMD | 1.0 × 0.6 × 0.37 mm body enables placement in <1.2 mm² board area - critical for ultra-thin mobile modules. |
| Power dissipation parity with SOT23 | 250 mW at Tamb = 25 °C matches legacy SOT23 performance while reducing footprint by >70%. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock - supports Tier-1 ECU designs without requalification. |
| Low VCE(sat) | 90 mV typical at IC = 10 mA / IB = 0.5 mA reduces conduction loss in battery-powered sensor interface stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN general-purpose transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC847BW,115 | SOT323 package (2.1 × 1.25 × 0.95 mm); higher Rth(j-a) (380 K/W); same hFE range and VCEO. | Larger footprint and height; less suitable for ultra-thin wearables but easier to hand-solder and inspect. | Select when manual rework or optical inspection is required, or when thermal margin exceeds 500 K/W requirement. |
| BC847C,215 | SOT23 package (3.0 × 1.4 × 1.1 mm); identical electrical specs but 3× larger board area and 3× greater height. | Compatible with legacy SOT23 footprints; supports higher peak power (350 mW) due to improved thermal mass. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial boards where space is not constrained and existing SOT23 tooling is in place. |
Compared with BC847CMB,315, the BC847BW,115 trades miniaturization for assembly flexibility, while the BC847C,215 prioritizes thermal headroom and legacy compatibility over size - making BC847CMB,315 optimal for next-gen space- and weight-critical designs.

FAQ
Is BC847CMB,315 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - it is fully qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for discrete semiconductors, including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock tests. Its guaranteed operation from −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature and 45 V VCEO rating make it appropriate for non-safety-critical automotive body electronics and infotainment systems.
What is the recommended soldering method for SOT883B?
Reflow soldering is the only recommended method per Nexperia's documentation. The SOT883B package lacks leads and relies on precise thermal profiling to ensure reliable solder joint formation across its three solder lands. Wave soldering, hand soldering, or hot-air rework are not validated and may cause delamination or voiding.
How does BC847CMB,315 differ from BC847C,215?
Both share identical electrical specifications (45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, 420–800 hFE), but BC847CMB,315 uses the ultra-small SOT883B package (1.0 × 0.6 × 0.37 mm), whereas BC847C,215 uses standard SOT23 (3.0 × 1.4 × 1.1 mm). This results in ~75% smaller board area and 66% lower profile - critical for modern mobile and wearable designs.
Can BC847CMB,315 replace BC847BMB in existing designs?
No - BC847CMB has higher hFE (420–800 vs. 200–450), which may cause unintended saturation or slower turn-off in circuits designed for BC847BMB's gain range. Base resistor values must be recalculated to maintain desired IB/IC ratio and switching speed; direct substitution without validation risks instability or excessive power dissipation.
