Product details
Overview
BCR 198F E6327 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon digital transistor with integrated bias resistors (R1 = R2 = 47 kΩ), designed for switching, inverting, and interface functions in compact logic-level driver 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 automotive body control modules and industrial I/O level-shifting interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the BCR 198F E6327 datasheet, BCR 198F E6327 pinout, BCR 198F E6327 application, or BCR 198F E6327 equivalent, key selection criteria include built-in resistor matching (R1/R2 = 0.9–1.1), AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT23 package thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 240 K/W), and guaranteed Vi(off) ≤ 1.5 V for reliable TTL/CMOS-compatible turn-off.
Technical Context
This digital transistor integrates two matched resistors to eliminate external base bias components, enabling direct connection to logic outputs without pull-up/down networks. Its PNP topology provides active-low switching with low saturation voltage and controlled input threshold behavior across –40 °C to 125 °C.
The device uses epitaxial planar technology with Pb-free RoHS-compliant packaging and meets AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements for automotive under-hood applications. Thermal derating curves confirm stable operation up to 102 °C case temperature at full 200 mW dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - supports rail-to-rail switching in 24 V automotive and industrial control systems |
| IC | 100 mA - sufficient for driving small relays, LEDs, or MOSFET gates in discrete logic interfaces |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 10 mA, IB = 0.5 mA - minimizes power loss and self-heating in high-duty-cycle switching |
| R1 / R2 | 47 kΩ ±30% each, ratio 0.9–1.1 - ensures consistent turn-on/off thresholds and reduces layout sensitivity |
| fT | 190 MHz typical - enables use in medium-speed digital signal routing up to ~10 MHz edge rates |
| Tj max | 150 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q101 Rev D |
| RthJS | ≤ 240 K/W - defines maximum allowable thermal gradient from junction to solder point in SOT23 mounting |
Pinout & Package
BCR 198F E6327 is housed in a standard SOT23-3 plastic package (JEDEC TO-236AB), with 1.3 mm × 2.9 mm footprint, 1.15 mm height, and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 = Base (B), Pin 2 = Emitter (E), Pin 3 = Collector (C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Base) | Input control node with internal R1–R2 divider | Accepts logic-level signals directly; no external bias required for TTL/CMOS compatibility |
| Pin 2 (Emitter) | Common emitter reference terminal | Connected to positive supply rail in high-side switch configurations |
| Pin 3 (Collector) | Switched output node | Sinks load current when active; compatible with open-collector logic interfacing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bias network | Matched R1 = R2 = 47 kΩ eliminates need for external resistors and improves board space efficiency |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive applications including engine control units and lighting drivers |
| Low VCE(sat) | 0.3 V max ensures <10 mW conduction loss at 10 mA load - critical for thermally constrained PCBs |
| Wide operating temperature | Functional from –40 °C to +125 °C ambient - supports industrial automation and ADAS subsystems |
| Pb-free RoHS compliance | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP digital transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-40,115 (Nexperia) | Standard PNP BJT without integrated resistors; requires external RB network | Higher design flexibility but increases component count and layout complexity | Preferred where adjustable gain or non-standard biasing is needed |
| NSVD120SN3T1G (ON Semiconductor) | PNP digital transistor with R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ; lower input resistance than BCR198F | Higher input current draw - unsuitable for weak-drive MCUs or battery-powered nodes | Select only when system-level Vi(on) threshold must be below 0.8 V |
Compared with BC807-40 and NSVD120SN3T1G, BCR 198F E6327 offers optimal balance of integrated bias accuracy, low VCE(sat), and AEC-Q101 qualification - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, automotive-grade switching where production consistency matters.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for BCR 198F E6327?
The absolute maximum DC collector current is 100 mA at TS ≤ 102 °C. Derating applies above this case temperature per the Ptot vs. TS curve in the datasheet - at 125 °C case, maximum usable IC drops to approximately 65 mA to maintain safe junction temperature.
Does BCR 198F E6327 support pulse operation beyond its DC ratings?
Yes - the device supports pulsed operation with peak current up to 300 mA at duty cycle D ≤ 2% and pulse width tp < 300 µs. Pulse capability is defined by the permissible Ptot(max)/Ptot(DC) ratio, which reaches 5× at tp = 10 µs per the datasheet graphs.
How does the built-in resistor ratio affect switching behavior?
The R1/R2 ratio of 0.9–1.1 ensures symmetrical input threshold hysteresis, resulting in consistent Vi(on) (1–3 V) and Vi(off) (0.8–1.5 V) across production lots. This tight matching reduces variation in logic-level compatibility and improves noise margin in mixed-voltage systems.
Is BCR 198F E6327 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes - the SOT23 package is qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature tolerance up to 260 °C for 10 seconds. The device passes MSL Level 1 rating and requires no special moisture sensitivity handling prior to assembly.
