Product details
Overview
BC847CWH6433XTMA1 from Nexperia is an NPN silicon general-purpose bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for audio-frequency input stages and driver applications. It features a DC current gain (hFE) of 420–800 at IC = 2 mA, VCE = 5 V; VCEO = 45 V; VCE(sat) ≤ 250 mV at IC = 10 mA, IB = 0.5 mA; and low noise (F = 1.2–4 dB) in the 1 kHz band. It is used in discrete amplifier bias networks and signal-level switching in automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BC847CWH6433XTMA1 datasheet, BC847CWH6433XTMA1 pinout, BC847CWH6433XTMA1 application, or BC847CWH6433XTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed hFE group C performance, AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use, SOT323 (SC-70) package thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 90 K/W), and verified low-noise operation below 15 kHz.
Technical Context
This transistor operates as a linear amplifying device with fixed-emitter bias topology in analog front-end circuits. Its hFE grouping (C) ensures consistent current amplification across production lots, while its fT = 250 MHz supports stable gain up to mid-VHF frequencies under small-signal conditions.
The device uses epitaxial planar technology with a triple-diffused structure, enabling low VCE(sat) and high breakdown margins. Its complementary PNP counterpart is BC857C, and it meets RoHS compliance with lead-free termination per JEDEC J-STD-020.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Supports rail voltages up to 36 V in automotive 12 V systems with margin |
| hFE (IC = 2 mA) | 420–800 - Enables precise biasing without external gain compensation in Class-A preamps |
| VCE(sat) | ≤250 mV @ IC/IB = 10/0.5 mA - Minimizes power loss in saturated-switching mode |
| fT | 250 MHz - Ensures stable small-signal gain beyond audio bandwidth into RF front-end filtering |
| Noise figure | 1.2–4 dB @ 1 kHz - Meets low-noise requirements for microphone preamplifier input stages |
| RthJS | ≤90 K/W - Allows 250 mW dissipation at TS ≤ 128 °C in SOT323 footprint |
Pinout & Package
BC847CWH6433XTMA1 is housed in a SOT323 (SC-70) plastic surface-mount package with gull-wing leads, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated reflow assembly. Thermal pad is not present; heat transfer occurs via leads and PCB copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | Current sink terminal | Reference node for bias network; connects to ground or emitter degeneration resistor |
| 2 (Base) | Control input | Receives current-limited drive; requires series resistor to limit IB and prevent saturation overshoot |
| 3 (Collector) | Current source output | Drives load or next stage; voltage swing limited by VCEO and supply rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive under-hood applications including temperature cycling and humidity testing |
| Low VCE(sat) | Reduces conduction loss in active-load configurations and improves efficiency in discrete LDO pass elements |
| Group C hFE | Guarantees minimum hFE ≥ 420 at 2 mA, simplifying production binning and reducing calibration overhead |
| RoHS-compliant | Lead-free terminations meet EU Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC847CW,115 (Nexperia) | Same die, identical hFE group C, but in SOT323-3L package with different marking and tape/reel orientation | No functional difference; differs only in packaging logistics and reel coding | Select when standard reel format (115 vs. XTMA1) aligns with SMT line feeder setup |
| MMBT3904LT1G (onsemi) | hFE min = 100 (group A), VCEO = 40 V, RthJS = 200 K/W in SOT23 - lower gain consistency and higher thermal resistance | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; suitable for commercial-grade consumer audio, not automotive | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where hFE spread and thermal margin are acceptable |
Compared with BC847CWH6433XTMA1, BC847CW,115 offers identical electrical behavior with logistics compatibility, while MMBT3904LT1G trades AEC-Q101 compliance and hFE consistency for broader commercial availability at lower unit cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for BC847CWH6433XTMA1?
The absolute maximum continuous collector current (IC) is 100 mA at TA = 25 °C. Derating applies above 71 °C ambient: power dissipation drops linearly to zero at 150 °C junction temperature. Peak pulsed current is 200 mA for tp ≤ 10 ms with duty cycle ≤ 2%.
Is BC847CWH6433XTMA1 suitable for linear amplifier applications?
Yes - its low noise figure (1.2–4 dB), high hFE consistency, and stable fT make it appropriate for Class-A and Class-AB small-signal amplifiers. Verified performance includes <0.5% THD+N at 1 kHz with 2 mA bias and 5 V supply in common-emitter configuration.
Does BC847CWH6433XTMA1 have a built-in ESD protection diode?
No - this is a bare-die NPN transistor without integrated ESD protection. External TVS or series resistors are required for I/O pins exposed to human contact or cable interfaces. The device itself withstands ≥2 kV HBM per JESD22-A114, but system-level protection must be implemented externally.
How does the SOT323 package affect thermal performance compared to SOT23?
The SOT323 (SC-70) package has lower thermal mass and smaller copper area than SOT23, resulting in higher RthJS (90 K/W vs. 240 K/W for BC846–BC850 in SOT23). However, BC847CWH6433XTMA1's die design and internal construction compensate with optimized metallization, enabling 250 mW dissipation at TS = 128 °C.
