Product details
Overview
BCR169SH6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon digital transistor with integrated 4.7 kΩ bias resistor (R1), designed for switching, inverting, interfacing, and driver circuits in automotive and industrial control systems. It features VCEO = 50 V, IC = 100 mA, VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 10 mA/IB = 0.5 mA, hFE = 120–630, and AEC-Q101 qualification.
For engineers reviewing the BCR169SH6327XTSA1 datasheet, BCR169SH6327XTSA1 pinout, BCR169SH6327XTSA1 application, or BCR169SH6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include built-in bias resistor value, dual-transistor matching (in SOT363 variant), thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 140 K/W), RoHS compliance, and automotive-grade reliability under −40 °C to +125 °C operation.
Technical Context
This device integrates two electrically isolated PNP transistors in a single SOT363 package with matched characteristics-enabling compact dual-channel logic-level switching without external biasing. Its internal R1 resistor (4.7 kΩ, ±30%) simplifies base drive design and reduces component count in interface circuits.
The transistor operates in common-emitter configuration with guaranteed VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V at IC/IB = 20, supports fT = 200 MHz for moderate-speed switching, and maintains stable hFE across −40 °C to +125 °C per AEC-Q101 stress testing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; enables use in 24 V automotive supply rails with margin. |
| IC | 100 mA - Continuous collector current rating; suitable for driving LEDs, relays, and small solenoids. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V @ IC=10 mA/IB=0.5 mA - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and self-heating in switching mode. |
| hFE | 120–630 @ IC=5 mA/VCE=5 V - Wide DC current gain range ensures reliable turn-on across process and temperature variation. |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ (3.2–6.2 kΩ) - Integrated base bias resistor eliminates external components and improves layout density. |
| fT | 200 MHz - Transition frequency supports clean edge response up to ~20 MHz square-wave switching. |
| RthJS | ≤ 140 K/W - Junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance enables sustained 250 mW dissipation at TS ≤ 115 °C. |
Pinout & Package
BCR169SH6327XTSA1 uses the SOT363 (SC-88) 6-pin plastic package, measuring 2.13 × 1.25 × 0.9 mm, with lead-free (RoHS-compliant) terminations and tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 pcs/reel, ø180 mm).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (B1) | Base of Transistor 1 | Connected internally to R1; accepts logic-level input to enable TR1 switching. |
| 2 (E1) | Emiter of Transistor 1 | Common emitter node for TR1; typically tied to VCC in high-side switch configurations. |
| 3 (C2) | Collector of Transistor 2 | Output node for TR2; sinks current when TR2 is active. |
| 4 (E2) | Emiter of Transistor 2 | Common emitter node for TR2; referenced to system ground in low-side switch layouts. |
| 5 (B2) | Base of Transistor 2 | Connected internally to second R1; independently controllable input for TR2. |
| 6 (C1) | Collector of Transistor 1 | Output node for TR1; sources current when TR1 is active in high-side configuration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual matched PNP transistors | Two electrically isolated, process-matched transistors in one SOT363 die - enables compact dual-channel logic inversion or complementary switching. |
| Integrated bias resistor R1 | 4.7 kΩ ±30% on each base - eliminates external pull-up/pull-down resistors and reduces PCB footprint by ≥2 components per channel. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Stress-tested for automotive applications including HTOL, TC, HAST, and ESD - supports deployment in engine control, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems. |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V at IC/IB = 20 - reduces conduction loss to < 3 mW at 10 mA, critical for thermally constrained modules. |
| Wide operating temperature | −40 °C to +125 °C junction range - maintains parametric stability across under-hood and industrial ambient conditions. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCR198H6327XTSA1 | Same SOT363 package; higher hFE (200–800); R1 = 10 kΩ | Better suited for low-drive-strength MCUs due to higher gain and higher input impedance | Select when base drive current is limited (< 0.2 mA) and higher noise immunity is required |
| NSVD120DP033T1G | Single-channel SOT23; R1 = 4.7 kΩ; VCEO = 50 V; IC = 100 mA; no AEC-Q101 | Lacks dual-transistor integration and automotive qualification; lower cost for non-automotive use | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer applications where dual-channel operation and AEC-Q101 are not required |

FAQ
Is BCR169SH6327XTSA1 pin-compatible with BCR169W or BCR169?
No. BCR169SH6327XTSA1 uses the SOT363 (6-pin) package with dual-transistor pinout (B1/E1/C2/E2/B2/C1), while BCR169W is SOT323 (3-pin) and BCR169 is SOT23 (3-pin). Pin mapping and channel count differ fundamentally-direct substitution requires PCB redesign.
What is the maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at 85 °C ambient?
At TS = 85 °C, the derated Ptot for BCR169SH6327XTSA1 (SOT363) is 250 mW × (1 − (85 − 115)/115) ≈ 196 mW. This assumes proper PCB copper area (≥ 25 mm² per pad) and still-air convection; actual dissipation must stay below this limit to maintain Tj ≤ 150 °C.
Does the built-in resistor R1 connect between base and emitter or base and VCC?
R1 connects internally between the base and emitter terminals of each transistor-forming a base-emitter pull-down network. This configuration ensures defined turn-off state when the input is floating or high-impedance, eliminating need for external pull-down resistors.
Can BCR169SH6327XTSA1 be used in linear amplification mode?
No. It is optimized and characterized exclusively for switching operation. The datasheet provides no linearity specifications (e.g., distortion, THD, or small-signal parameters beyond fT). Its hFE variation over IC, VCE, and temperature makes it unsuitable for analog amplification.
