Product details
Overview
BC860BE6327HTSA1 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 = 220–480 at IC = 2 mA), low VCE(sat) (max 250 mV at IC = 10 mA/IB = 0.5 mA), and low noise (F = 1 dB typ at 1 kHz), making it suitable for low-distortion preamplifier and level-shifting applications in automotive and industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BC860BE6327HTSA1 datasheet, BC860BE6327HTSA1 pinout, BC860BE6327HTSA1 application, or BC860BE6327HTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified hFE grouping (B), guaranteed AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT23 package thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 240 K/W), and complementary NPN pairing with BC847B/BC848B series.
Technical Context
This PNP transistor operates with VCEO = 45 V and VCBO = 50 V, supporting mid-rail biasing in dual-supply analog signal chains. Its fT = 250 MHz (typ) enables stable operation up to 10 MHz with controlled phase margin in feedback amplifiers.
The device exhibits Ccb = 1.5 pF and Ceb = 8 pF at rated bias, yielding predictable Miller effect behavior in common-emitter configurations. Its h21e = 330–600 (hFE-group B) and h11e = 4.5 kΩ (typ) support precise small-signal modeling in SPICE simulations without parameter extrapolation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - Supports rail-to-rail signal swing in ±15 V op-amp driver stages without breakdown. |
| hFE (IC = 2 mA) | 220–480 (Group B) - Enables consistent bias point setting across production lots in current mirror references. |
| VCE(sat) | 250 mV max at IC/IB = 10 mA/0.5 mA - Minimizes power loss in active-low switch and logic-level translator designs. |
| fT | 250 MHz typ at IC = 20 mA - Ensures adequate bandwidth for 10 MHz audio preamp and tone control filter buffers. |
| F (Noise Figure) | 1 dB typ at IC = 0.2 mA - Meets SNR requirements in microphone preamplifier front-ends with 2 kΩ source impedance. |
| RthJS | ≤240 K/W - Allows 330 mW dissipation at TS ≤ 71 °C, enabling use in compact PCB layouts without forced airflow. |
Pinout & Package
BC860BE6327HTSA1 is housed in a standard SOT23 plastic surface-mount package (JEDEC TO-236AB), with 3-pin configuration optimized for automated placement and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Base) | Current-controlled input node | Receives base drive current to regulate collector-emitter conduction; requires series resistor for current limiting in digital switching. |
| 2 (Emitter) | Reference terminal for PNP operation | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., VCC) in common-emitter amplifier; defines emitter-follower output reference. |
| 3 (Collector) | Output current sink terminal | Delivers amplified current to load; polarity reversal relative to NPN devices enables complementary push-pull stage implementation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements (HTOL, TC, HAST), enabling use in engine control and body electronics. |
| Low-noise operation | F = 1 dB typ at 1 kHz ensures minimal added noise in sensor interface preamplifiers with 2 kΩ source impedance. |
| High hFE consistency | Group B binning (220–480) reduces calibration overhead in precision current sources and matched pair applications. |
| Pb-free RoHS compliance | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU without exemptions, supporting lead-free assembly and environmental compliance reporting. |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC857B,215 (Nexperia) | Same SOT23 package, identical hFE group B (220–475), but VCEO = 45 V and RthJS = 250 K/W. | Approved for consumer-grade industrial use; lacks AEC-Q101 certification. | Select when automotive qualification is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs reliability validation. |
| MMBT860,215 (NXP) | VCEO = 45 V, hFE = 200–450 (B), but fT = 180 MHz (vs. 250 MHz) and Ccb = 2.0 pF (vs. 1.5 pF). | Lower bandwidth limits use in >5 MHz audio filters; higher capacitance increases Miller distortion in high-gain stages. | Prefer only if legacy design reuse mandates exact footprint and no bandwidth margin is required. |
Compared with BC857B and MMBT860, BC860BE6327HTSA1 offers superior RF performance (250 MHz fT), tighter thermal resistance (240 vs. 250 K/W), and mandatory AEC-Q101 compliance-making it the optimal choice for new automotive and high-reliability industrial designs where signal fidelity and qualification traceability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for BC860BE6327HTSA1?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, as specified in the Infineon datasheet. Operation above this limit risks permanent degradation of hFE and increased leakage. Derating begins at TS = 71 °C, where total power dissipation drops linearly from 330 mW to zero at 150 °C case temperature.
Is BC860BE6327HTSA1 pin-compatible with BC847B?
No-BC847B is an NPN transistor with identical SOT23 pinout (1=Base, 2=Emitter, 3=Collector), but BC860BE6327HTSA1 is PNP with reversed polarity: its pin 1 is Base, pin 2 is Emitter, and pin 3 is Collector. While physically interchangeable, electrical behavior is complementary, not drop-in replaceable.
Does BC860BE6327HTSA1 support pulsed operation beyond DC ratings?
Yes-the datasheet specifies permissible pulse load curves showing Ptot(max)/Ptot(DC) ratios up to 10× for tp < 100 µs at D = 2%. At 10 µs pulse width, peak power can reach 3.3 W with 5% duty cycle, enabling short-duration surge handling in protection circuits.
How does the "E6327" suffix affect BC860BE6327HTSA1's specifications?
The "E6327" denotes Infineon's tape-and-reel packaging standard (7-inch reel, 3,000 units), while "HTSA1" indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant molding compound and lead finish. These suffixes do not alter electrical parameters-they reflect packaging and environmental compliance, not functional differentiation.
