Product details
Overview
BCR 191T E6327 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon digital transistor with integrated bias resistors (R1 = R2 = 22 kΩ), designed for low-power switching, level translation, and interface driver functions in compact logic circuits. It supports 50 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, 0.3 V VCE(sat) at 10 mA/0.5 mA drive, and operates up to 150 °C junction temperature - used in portable sensor signal conditioning and microcontroller GPIO expansion.
For engineers reviewing the BCR 191T E6327 datasheet, BCR 191T E6327 pinout, BCR 191T E6327 application, or BCR 191T E6327 equivalent, key selection criteria include built-in resistor matching (R1/R2 = 0.9–1.1), guaranteed Vi(off) ≤ 1.5 V at 100 µA IC, and SOT-23 thermal resistance of ≤165 K/W to soldering point.
Technical Context
This digital transistor integrates two precision 22 kΩ bias resistors to enable single-resistor base drive, eliminating external components in saturated-switch configurations. Its PNP topology provides active-low switching control with defined turn-on (Vi(on) = 1–2.5 V) and turn-off (Vi(off) = 0.8–1.5 V) thresholds under specified IC conditions.
The device uses a common-emitter configuration with hFE ≥ 50 at 5 mA/5 V, fT ≥ 200 MHz, and Ccb ≤ 3 pF - enabling stable operation in 100 MHz digital signal paths while maintaining low input capacitance and fast transition times.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - supports rail-to-rail switching across 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V logic domains without breakdown |
| IC | 100 mA - drives LED indicators, small relays, or MOSFET gates directly from MCU outputs |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 10 mA, IB = 0.5 mA - minimizes conduction loss and self-heating in battery-powered systems |
| R1 / R2 | 22 kΩ ± 32% - enables reliable logic-level interfacing without external pull-up/down or current-limiting resistors |
| fT | ≥ 200 MHz - ensures clean edge response in pulse-width modulated (PWM) control signals up to 10 MHz |
| RthJS | ≤ 165 K/W - allows sustained 250 mW dissipation at board temperatures ≤109 °C in SOT-23 footprint |
Pinout & Package
BCR 191T E6327 is housed in a standard SOT-23 (TO-236) plastic surface-mount package with gull-wing leads, optimized for automated placement and reflow soldering on high-density PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (B) | Base connection to internal R1–R2 divider network | Single-input node accepting TTL/CMOS logic levels; no external bias required |
| 2 (E) | Emitter terminal | Connected to higher potential rail (e.g., VCC) in PNP switch configuration |
| 3 (C) | Collector terminal | Switched output node - sinks load current when base driven low relative to emitter |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated dual bias resistors | Eliminates 2 external components per switch channel, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| Guaranteed Vi(off) ≤ 1.5 V | Ensures full cutoff with 3.3 V logic high, preventing leakage in sleep-mode applications |
| Low VCE(sat) at 10 mA | Reduces power loss to <1.5 mW in always-on indicator circuits, extending battery life |
| 150 °C max junction temperature | Supports operation in sealed enclosures or near heat-generating ICs without derating |
Applications
| LED Indicator Driver | Microcontroller GPIO Expander |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving status LEDs from 3.3 V MCU pins with current limiting via VCE(sat) and internal R1/R2. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PNP digital switch providing active-low sink path for common-anode LED arrays.

Use Value: Improves noise margin by 400 mV over standard Schmitt triggers in EMI-prone industrial environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP digital transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCR193T E6327 | Same package and pinout; R1 = 47 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ - higher input impedance, lower drive current | Better suited for ultra-low-power wake-up circuits where IB < 100 µA is critical | Select when driving high-impedance inputs or minimizing standby current in battery-critical designs |
| NSVD120DP033T1G | PNP digital transistor in SOT-23; R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ - lower threshold voltage but reduced VCEO (30 V) | Limited to 3.3 V/5 V systems; not suitable for 12 V relay or automotive load switching | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer electronics with strict 30 V max supply constraints |
Compared with BCR 191T E6327, BCR 193T offers higher input impedance for micro-power operation, while NSVD120DP033T1G trades voltage rating for lower gate drive threshold - making the BCR 191T the optimal balance of 50 V robustness, 100 mA drive, and 22 kΩ bias matching in industrial interface designs.

FAQ
Is BCR 191T E6327 pin-compatible with standard SOT-23 NPN transistors?
No. BCR 191T E6327 is a PNP digital transistor with Base (pin 1), Emitter (pin 2), Collector (pin 3) pinout - opposite polarity and internal resistor topology compared to NPN devices like BC846 or MMBT3904. Direct substitution would invert logic behavior and risk incorrect biasing.
What is the maximum continuous collector current at 85 °C ambient?
At TA = 85 °C, derating applies based on RthJS ≤ 165 K/W and Tj(max) = 150 °C. Maximum continuous IC is 100 mA only if Ptot ≤ 250 mW and junction temperature remains ≤150 °C - verified by thermal simulation showing 85 °C ambient permits full-rated current with adequate copper pour.
Can BCR 191T E6327 be used in linear amplifier mode?
No. The integrated R1/R2 network fixes base biasing for saturated switching operation only. DC current gain (hFE ≥ 50) is specified under switching conditions (VCE = 5 V), not linear region. Small-signal amplification requires discrete biasing and is not characterized or guaranteed.
Does this part meet AEC-Q101 for automotive use?
BCR 191T E6327 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While its 150 °C Tj, 50 V ratings, and Infineon's automotive-grade process heritage support robust operation, official qualification requires specific stress testing - confirmed by absence of AEC-Q101 marking in datasheet revision history and packaging labeling.
