Product details
Overview
BC858CWE6327BTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon small-signal transistor designed for audio-frequency input stages and driver circuits. It delivers high DC current gain (hFE = 420–520 at IC = 2 mA), low VCE(sat) (≤300 mV at IC = 10 mA/IB = 0.5 mA), and low noise (F = 1–4 dB at 1 kHz), making it suitable for low-distortion preamplifier and switching applications in automotive and industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BC858CWE6327BTSA1 datasheet, BC858CWE6327BTSA1 pinout, BC858CWE6327BTSA1 application, or BC858CWE6327BTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified hFE group C performance, SOT-323 package thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 90 K/W), AEC-Q101 qualification, and complementary NPN pairing with BC848C.
Technical Context
This PNP transistor operates in linear amplification and saturated switching modes, with guaranteed hFE grouping (C: 420–520 at IC = 10 µA/VCE = 5 V) and stable gain across IC = 0.2–100 mA. Its fT of 250 MHz supports wideband AF signal handling up to 15 kHz with minimal phase shift.
The device features low VBE(sat) (≤850 mV at IC = 100 mA/IB = 0.5 mA) and tight VCE(sat) distribution (75–300 mV), enabling efficient current sourcing in bias networks and level-shifting interfaces where base drive efficiency and thermal stability are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 30 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating range in 24 V automotive supply rails. |
| hFE (IC = 2 mA) | 420–520 - High, tightly binned DC current gain ensures predictable base current sizing in amplifier biasing. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤300 mV - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and self-heating in switching applications. |
| fT | 250 MHz - Sufficient bandwidth for audio-frequency amplification with flat response up to 15 kHz. |
| Noise figure | 1–4 dB - Verified low-noise performance at 1 kHz/0.2 mA, critical for microphone preamp front-ends. |
| RthJS | ≤90 K/W - Thermal resistance enables reliable operation at TJ ≤ 150 °C with moderate PCB copper area. |
Pinout & Package
BC858CWE6327BTSA1 is housed in a RoHS-compliant SOT-323 (SC-70) plastic surface-mount package, measuring 2.1 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.95 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | E | Current sink terminal; connected to ground or lower-potential node in common-emitter configurations. |
| 2 (Base) | B | Control input; requires ~0.7 V forward bias and precise current limiting for stable hFE-dependent operation. |
| 3 (Collector) | C | Current source output; supplies load current when base is driven, with VCE clamped near 0.3 V in saturation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, and HAST. |
| Low VCE(sat) at high IC | 650 mV max at IC = 100 mA/IB = 5 mA - enables efficient high-current switching without external heat sinking. |
| Group C hFE binning | Guaranteed 420–520 at IC = 10 µA - reduces circuit gain variation and simplifies production calibration. |
| Low-noise AF performance | F = 1–4 dB at 1 kHz/0.2 mA - meets SNR requirements in analog sensor interface and audio signal conditioning paths. |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module Preamp | Industrial PLC Input Buffer |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Amplifying low-level analog signals from door latch position sensors before ADC sampling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PNP common-emitter preamplifier providing 20–30 dB voltage gain with DC-coupled bias.

Use Value: 1 dB typical noise figure at 1 kHz preserves signal integrity in sub-µV biopotential acquisition. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP small-signal transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC858CTA | Same die, SOT-23 package; RthJS = 240 K/W vs. 90 K/W in SOT-323 | Lower power density handling; unsuitable for >50 mW continuous dissipation | Select when board space allows larger footprint and thermal budget permits higher junction rise. |
| MMBT858 | Non-AEC-Q101; hFE min = 300 (no group C guarantee); fT = 150 MHz | Not qualified for automotive use; limited bandwidth for wideband AF design | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer-grade audio buffers where qualification and noise are secondary. |
Compared with BC858CTA and MMBT858, BC858CWE6327BTSA1 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, SOT-323 thermal efficiency, and guaranteed Group C hFE, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive and industrial signal conditioning.

FAQ
Is BC858CWE6327BTSA1 pin-compatible with BC848C?
No - BC858CWE6327BTSA1 is a PNP transistor with E-B-C pinout (1=E, 2=B, 3=C) in SOT-323, while BC848C is an NPN with C-B-E pinout (1=C, 2=B, 3=E). Physical mounting is identical, but polarity and pin function are inverted; direct substitution requires circuit redesign.
What is the maximum continuous collector current at 125°C ambient?
At TA = 125 °C, derated power dissipation limits IC to approximately 45 mA (based on Ptot = 250 mW and VCE(sat) ≈ 0.3 V), assuming no additional heatsinking and standard FR-4 PCB layout with 1 cm² copper pour.
Does this part support pulsed operation beyond its DC ratings?
Yes - pulse operation up to 200 mA is permitted with duty cycle ≤5% and pulse width ≤100 µs, as confirmed by the permissible pulse load curve (EHP00377) showing Ptot(max)/Ptot(DC) = 3.5 at tp = 100 µs.
Can BC858CWE6327BTSA1 be used in Class-A audio amplifier stages?
Yes - its low noise (1–4 dB), high hFE, and stable VBE(ON) (650–820 mV) enable clean Class-A biasing at IC = 1–5 mA; however, thermal design must account for RthJS = 90 K/W to maintain TJ < 125 °C under continuous load.
