Product details
Overview
BCW67A E6327 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon general-purpose audio-frequency bipolar junction transistor in SOT23 package, rated for VCEO = 32 V, IC = 800 mA, and Ptot = 330 mW at TS ≤ 79°C, with hFE = 35–100 (group A/F) at IC = 100 µA and VCE = 10 V, used in low-voltage switching and linear amplification stages of consumer audio and power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BCW67A E6327 datasheet, BCW67A E6327 pinout, BCW67A E6327 application, or BCW67A E6327 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VCE(sat) ≤ 0.7 V at IC = 500 mA/IB = 50 mA, fT = 200 MHz, Ccb = 6 pF, RoHS-compliant SOT23 footprint, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT operates in active, saturation, and cutoff regions with defined DC current gain groups (A/F: hFE = 35–100), collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 32 V, and emitter-base breakdown voltage of 5 V. Its thermal resistance RthJS ≤ 215 K/W enables stable operation up to Tj = 150°C under controlled board-level heatsinking.
The device exhibits low VCE(sat) (0.3–0.7 V) across IC = 100–500 mA, enabling efficient switching in low-dropout load control, while its fT = 200 MHz supports audio-band amplification and moderate-speed digital signal conditioning without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 32 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before avalanche breakdown in common-emitter configuration |
| IC | 800 mA - Continuous DC collector current rating at TS ≤ 79°C, defining maximum linear/saturation load handling |
| hFE (A/F group) | 35–100 - DC current gain range at IC = 100 µA/VCE = 10 V, critical for bias stability in amplifier designs |
| VCE(sat) | 0.3–0.7 V - Collector-emitter voltage drop in saturation at IC = 100–500 mA, directly impacting conduction loss |
| fT | 200 MHz - Transition frequency at IC = 50 mA/VCE = 5 V, indicating usable bandwidth for AF and low-speed switching |
| Ccb | 6 pF - Collector-base junction capacitance at VCB = 10 V, limiting high-frequency gain roll-off and Miller effect |
| RthJS | ≤215 K/W - Thermal resistance from junction to soldering point, governing temperature rise under steady-state power dissipation |
Pinout & Package
BCW67A E6327 is housed in a standard SOT23 plastic surface-mount package with 3-pin configuration and gull-wing leads. The package outline complies with JEDEC TO-236AB, with body dimensions 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm and 0.95 mm lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Marked) | Base (B) | Control electrode; requires current-limited drive (IB ≤ 100 mA) to achieve specified hFE and VCE(sat) |
| 2 | Emitter (E) | Current source terminal in PNP operation; connected to higher potential rail in typical switch/amplifier topologies |
| 3 | Collector (C) | Output current sink terminal; voltage swing limited by VCEO = 32 V and thermal derating above TS = 79°C |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, and HAST, supporting under-hood and infotainment applications |
| Low VCE(sat) | 0.3 V typical at IC = 100 mA/IB = 10 mA, reducing power loss and heat generation in saturated-switch mode |
| High hFE consistency | Group A/F guarantees hFE ≥35 at IC = 100 µA, enabling predictable biasing in discrete amplifier stages |
| RoHS-compliant SOT23 | Pb-free termination and molding compound meet EU Directive 2011/65/EU, compatible with lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP general-purpose transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-40,215 (Nexperia) | VCEO = 45 V, hFE = 250–630 (group 40), SOT23 package, same pinout | Higher gain and voltage rating; less suitable for low-VCE optimization where BCW67A's 0.3 V VCE(sat) is critical | Select when higher hFE stability at IC > 100 mA is required, but verify thermal margin due to higher Ptot derating |
| MMBT3906LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | VCEO = 40 V, hFE = 100–300, VCE(sat) = 0.4 V @ IC/IB = 10/1 mA, SOT23 | Optimized for low-current switching (IC ≤ 200 mA); not rated for 500 mA continuous operation like BCW67A | Prefer for GPIO-driven logic-level switching; avoid in 500 mA load applications where BCW67A's robustness is validated |
Compared with BC807-40 and MMBT3906LT1G, BCW67A E6327 offers superior thermal performance at high IC (330 mW @ TS ≤ 79°C vs. 300 mW typical), tighter VCE(sat) control at 500 mA, and AEC-Q101 qualification-making it preferred for automotive and industrial switching where reliability under sustained load is mandatory.

FAQ
Is BCW67A E6327 pin-compatible with BCW66 series NPN transistors?
No. BCW67A is a PNP transistor with Base-Emitter-Collector pinout (1-2-3), while BCW66 is an NPN complementary type with identical SOT23 mechanical footprint but reversed polarity and opposite current flow direction. Direct substitution without circuit topology revision will cause functional failure.
What is the maximum allowable base current for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum DC base current is 100 mA, but for reliable long-term operation at IC = 500 mA, design practice limits IB to ≤50 mA to maintain VCE(sat) ≤ 0.7 V and avoid thermal runaway. Pulse base current up to 200 mA is permitted only for tp < 300 µs with duty cycle D < 2%.
Does BCW67A E6327 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes. BCW67A E6327 is RoHS-compliant with Pb-free terminations and qualifies for standard lead-free reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. The SOT23 package withstands JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) without baking.
How does AEC-Q101 qualification impact BCW67A E6327's use in non-automotive applications?
AEC-Q101 qualification certifies enhanced robustness against temperature cycling, humidity, and electrical stress-benefiting any high-reliability application. While not required for consumer gear, it provides measurable margin in industrial controls, medical peripherals, and outdoor equipment exposed to thermal shock or extended service life.
