Infineon Technologies BC847SH6827XTSA1

Overview

BC847SH6827XTSA1 from Nexperia is a dual NPN silicon small-signal transistor array in SOT363 (SC74) package, featuring two galvanically isolated transistors with matched h_FE (min 200 at I_C = 10 µA), V_CEO = 45 V, and low V_CE(sat) = 90 mV (I_C = 10 mA, I_B = 0.5 mA). It is qualified to AEC-Q101 and used in automotive AF input stages and driver circuits requiring thermal stability and high gain matching.

For engineers reviewing the BC847SH6827XTSA1 datasheet, BC847SH6827XTSA1 pinout, BC847SH6827XTSA1 application, or BC847SH6827XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-transistor matching tolerance, junction temperature rating (T_j = 150 °C), pulsed power capability (P_tot(max)/P_tot(DC) up to 10× for t_p ≤ 100 µs), and RoHS-compliant lead-free packaging.

Technical Context

This dual NPN transistor array integrates two electrically isolated transistors on a single die with tightly controlled h_FE spread (200–450 at I_C = 2 mA) and matched V_BE(sat) (700–770 mV). Its design supports cascaded amplification and complementary push-pull driver configurations without cross-coupling.

The device operates with f_T = 250 MHz at I_C = 20 mA and exhibits low parasitic capacitance (C_cb = 0.95 pF, C_eb = 9 pF), enabling stable performance in audio-frequency amplifier front-ends and low-noise signal conditioning paths up to 100 kHz.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous collector current per transistor in BC847SH6827XTSA1?

The absolute maximum continuous collector current per transistor is 100 mA at T_S ≤ 115 °C. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area for heat dissipation and accounts for derating above ambient temperatures. Peak pulsed current reaches 200 mA for t_p ≤ 10 ms with duty cycle ≤ 2%, as defined in the permissible pulse load curves.

Does BC847SH6827XTSA1 support common-emitter and common-collector configurations?

Yes - each transistor supports all three basic configurations. Pin 1 (E1) and pin 4 (E2) serve as dedicated emitter terminals, allowing flexible biasing. Common-collector (emitter-follower) use is validated by V_BE(ON) = 580–770 mV and h_FE ≥ 200, ensuring stable voltage buffering with low output impedance.

How is pin 1 identified on the SOT363 package of BC847SH6827XTSA1?

Pin 1 is marked by a molded dot or beveled edge located at the top-left corner of the SOT363 package when the marking side faces up and the leads point downward. The pinout follows standard SC74 orientation: pins 1–3 on the top row (left to right), pins 4–6 on the bottom row (left to right), with pin 4 directly below pin 1.

Is BC847SH6827XTSA1 suitable for use in high-humidity or under-hood automotive environments?

Yes - it is qualified to AEC-Q101 and rated for storage temperature from −65 °C to +150 °C. Its Pb-free matte tin terminations and hermetically sealed plastic package meet JESD22-A101 humidity resistance requirements, making it suitable for under-hood ECUs and body control modules exposed to condensation and thermal cycling.
