Product details
Overview
BCR169SE6327BTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon digital transistor with integrated bias resistor (R1 = 4.7 kΩ), designed for switching, inverting, interface, and driver circuits in automotive and industrial control systems. It features dual isolated transistors in one SOT363 package, AEC-Q101 qualification, 50 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, and 250 mW Ptot at TS ≤ 115 °C.
For engineers reviewing the BCR169SE6327BTSA1 datasheet, BCR169SE6327BTSA1 pinout, BCR169SE6327BTSA1 application, or BCR169SE6327BTSA1 equivalent, this page delivers verified pin assignments, thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 140 K/W), input voltage thresholds (Vi(on) = 0.5–1.1 V), hFE range (120–630), and AEC-Q101 compliance status - all critical for automotive-grade signal-level switching design.
Technical Context
This dual-die PNP digital transistor integrates two matched transistors with independent emitter-base-collector terminals and a built-in 4.7 kΩ base bias resistor per channel. Its SOT363 package enables compact dual-channel logic-level switching without external bias networks.
Designed for automotive applications, it supports common-emitter switching with guaranteed VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 10 mA / IB = 0.5 mA and operates across –40 °C to +125 °C junction temperature, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing protocols.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter blocking voltage before breakdown under open-base conditions |
| IC | 100 mA - Continuous collector current rating defining safe switching load capacity |
| Ptot | 250 mW at TS ≤ 115 °C - Total power dissipation limit for dual-transistor operation in SOT363 |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ (3.2–6.2 kΩ) - Integrated base bias resistor enabling single-resistor drive from logic-level signals |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 10 mA, IB = 0.5 mA - Low saturation voltage ensures minimal conduction loss in active switching |
| hFE | 120–630 at IC = 5 mA, VCE = 5 V - DC current gain range supporting reliable on/off control margin |
| fT | 200 MHz - Transition frequency confirming suitability for high-speed digital switching up to ~10–20 MHz edge rates |
Pinout & Package
BCR169SE6327BTSA1 uses the SOT363 (SC-88) 6-pin surface-mount package, with two electrically isolated PNP transistor units sharing no internal connection. Pin 1 = B1, Pin 2 = E1, Pin 3 = C2, Pin 4 = E2, Pin 5 = B2, Pin 6 = C1 - confirmed per Infineon package outline EHA07180 and marking layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (B1) | Base of Transistor 1 | Input terminal for first PNP switch; internally connected to R1 (4.7 kΩ) pull-up to emitter |
| 2 (E1) | Emitter of Transistor 1 | Reference node for TR1; connects to system ground or negative rail in high-side switch configuration |
| 3 (C2) | Collector of Transistor 2 | Output node for second switch; sinks current when TR2 is active |
| 4 (E2) | Emitter of Transistor 2 | Reference node for TR2; independently wired from E1 for dual-isolated operation |
| 5 (B2) | Base of Transistor 2 | Input terminal for second PNP switch; internally biased via separate R1 network |
| 6 (C1) | Collector of Transistor 1 | Output node for first switch; provides low-impedance path to load when TR1 is saturated |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual isolated PNP transistors | Two independent switching elements in one SOT363 footprint - reduces PCB area vs. discrete solutions |
| Integrated bias resistors | 4.7 kΩ R1 per channel eliminates need for external base resistors in standard logic-driven switching |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, body electronics, and lighting modules |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V ensures <10 mW conduction loss at 10 mA load - critical for thermally constrained modules |
| Wide operating temperature | –40 °C to +125 °C junction range supports under-hood and industrial ambient environments |
Applications
| Automotive LED Tail Light Control | Industrial PLC Input Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving multiple LED strings in rear lighting modules using microcontroller GPIOs with 3.3 V logic levels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-channel PNP switch translating logic-high signals into grounded-load current paths for LED anodes.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic-level compatible driver stage isolating low-power MCU pins from relay coil inductance. Use Value: Dual-channel layout permits simultaneous control of normally-open and normally-closed relay contacts in compact space-constrained enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP digital transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCR198SE6327HTSA1 | Higher VCEO (80 V), same SOT363 package, R1 = 10 kΩ | Better suited for 48 V automotive subsystems or higher-voltage industrial sensors | Select when system rail exceeds 50 V or higher input impedance is required |
| NSVD120DP033T1G | Single-channel, SOT23, R1 = 4.7 kΩ, AEC-Q101, VCEO = 50 V | Lacks dual-transistor integration; requires two devices for same functionality | Choose only if board layout allows extra placement area and cost sensitivity outweighs integration benefit |
Compared with BCR169SE6327BTSA1, the BCR198SE6327HTSA1 offers higher voltage tolerance but reduced drive strength due to higher R1, while the NSVD120DP033T1G sacrifices integration for lower unit cost and wider distributor availability - making BCR169SE6327BTSA1 optimal for space- and reliability-critical dual-switching nodes.

FAQ
Is BCR169SE6327BTSA1 pin-compatible with BCR169WE6327BTSA1?
No. BCR169SE6327BTSA1 uses SOT363 (6-pin) with dual isolated transistors, while BCR169WE6327BTSA1 uses SOT323 (3-pin) and contains only one transistor. Pin count, pinout, and internal topology differ fundamentally - direct replacement is not possible without PCB redesign.
What is the maximum allowable continuous collector current per channel?
The absolute maximum continuous collector current per channel is 100 mA, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Derating applies above TS = 115 °C; at 125 °C ambient, maximum usable IC drops to approximately 75 mA to maintain junction temperature ≤ 150 °C.
Does the built-in resistor R1 connect between base and emitter or base and collector?
R1 connects between base and emitter - confirmed by Infineon's internal schematic and electrical test conditions (e.g., Vi(off) measured with VCE = 5 V). This configuration enables standard PNP digital transistor behavior: logic-high input at base turns the transistor off, logic-low turns it on.
Can BCR169SE6327BTSA1 be used in linear amplifier mode?
No. It is optimized and characterized exclusively for switching operation. The datasheet provides no small-signal parameters (e.g., gm, rπ) or linearity specifications. Its hFE variation across IC and temperature, plus lack of AC gain stability data, precludes use as a linear amplifier.
