Product details
Overview
BCW67CE6327HTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a PNP silicon small-signal bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for general-purpose audio-frequency amplification and switching. It delivers hFE = 80–180 (at IC = 100 µA, VCE = 10 V), VCEO = 32 V, IC = 800 mA continuous, and VCE(sat) ≤ 0.7 V at IC = 500 mA / IB = 50 mA - used in low-voltage load switching and discrete amplifier stages in automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BCW67CE6327HTSA1 datasheet, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 pinout, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 application, or BCW67CE6327HTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed hFE group C performance, SOT23 thermal resistance (RthJS ≤ 215 K/W), low VCE(sat) under high-current drive, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive ambient operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT operates in active, saturation, and cutoff regions with DC current gain specified across three collector current ranges (100 µA to 500 mA) and two VCE bias points (1 V and 2 V). Its fT = 200 MHz (typ.) supports stable gain in AF and low-MHz switching applications.
Thermal design relies on RthJS ≤ 215 K/W and Ptot = 330 mW at TS ≤ 79 °C, with derating above that solder-point temperature. The device exhibits low Ccb = 6 pF and Ceb = 60 pF, enabling predictable frequency response in emitter-follower and common-emitter configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 32 V - maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in open-base condition |
| IC (continuous) | 800 mA - continuous collector current rating defining usable linear/saturation range |
| hFE (min) | 80 - guaranteed DC current gain at IC = 100 µA, VCE = 10 V for group C devices |
| VCE(sat) | 0.7 V max at IC = 500 mA, IB = 50 mA - defines power loss and voltage headroom in saturated switch mode |
| fT | 200 MHz typ. - transition frequency indicating usable bandwidth for small-signal amplification |
| RthJS | ≤215 K/W - thermal resistance from junction to solder point, critical for PCB copper pour sizing |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling and HTRB |
Pinout & Package
BCW67CE6327HTSA1 is housed in a standard SOT23 plastic surface-mount package with gull-wing leads and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1. Pin 1 = Base, Pin 2 = Emitter, Pin 3 = Collector.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Base) | Control input terminal | Receives base current to regulate collector-emitter conduction; requires current-limiting resistor in digital drive |
| 2 (Emitter) | Current source reference node | Connected to higher potential (e.g., VCC) in PNP common-emitter switch; sets bias reference for hFE-based current mirror accuracy |
| 3 (Collector) | Output current path | Sinks load current when saturated; polarity reversal vs NPN requires complementary layout routing in dual-rail designs |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High hFE group C | Min 80 at 100 µA ensures reliable turn-on with low base drive in battery-powered sensors |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤0.7 V at 500 mA enables <150 mW dissipation in high-current switching nodes |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive under-hood environments including 150 °C junction operation and thermal shock |
| SOT23 footprint | Standard 3-pin gull-wing package compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow profiles |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module Switching | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving resistive loads (e.g., LED indicators, small solenoids) in vehicle door control units exposed to -40 °C to +105 °C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PNP switch controlling ground-referenced loads via microcontroller GPIO with inverted logic. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) minimizes self-heating during 500 mA pulses; AEC-Q101 compliance ensures field reliability over 15-year vehicle life. | Use Scenario: Amplifying weak analog signals (e.g., thermistor bridges, Hall-effect outputs) in programmable logic controller (PLC) input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete emitter-follower buffer providing high-input impedance and low-output impedance without op-amp cost. Use Value: hFE ≥ 80 ensures stable gain stability across temperature; SOT23 allows dense placement near sensor traces to reduce noise pickup. |
| Consumer Audio Pre-amplifier Stage | Power Supply Enable Control |
Use Scenario: First-stage voltage amplification in portable headphone amplifiers powered by single 3.3 V Li-ion cells. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-emitter small-signal amplifier biased at IC = 1 mA for optimal fT and linearity. Use Value: fT = 200 MHz provides >10× margin above 20 kHz audio band; low Ceb = 60 pF avoids Miller-effect instability. | Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling secondary DC-DC converter rails in multi-rail embedded systems using 3.3 V logic. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side enable switch sourcing current to EN pin of buck regulator ICs. Use Value: VCEO = 32 V accommodates 24 V industrial supply rails; robust IC rating handles inrush currents during rail startup. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP small-signal transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC807-40,115 (Nexperia) | VCEO = 45 V, hFE min = 250 at IC = 100 mA, RthJS = 250 K/W | Higher voltage rating but lower thermal efficiency; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Preferred for non-automotive 45 V systems where gain consistency at high IC matters more than thermal density |
| MMBT3906LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | VCEO = 40 V, hFE min = 100 at IC = 10 mA, fT = 250 MHz | Higher fT but narrower hFE specification range; no automotive qualification | Selected for RF-coupled preamp stages needing extended bandwidth beyond 100 MHz |
Compared with BC807-40 and MMBT3906LT1G, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 offers the only AEC-Q101 validation among the three, tighter hFE binning at low IC, and superior thermal resistance - making it the sole choice for automotive body electronics requiring long-term reliability under thermal stress.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed hFE range for BCW67CE6327HTSA1 at IC = 10 mA?
At IC = 10 mA and VCE = 1 V, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 (group C) guarantees hFE ≥ 180 (minimum), with typical values reaching 250. This is confirmed in the "Electrical Characteristics" table of the Infineon datasheet (Rev. 2007-04-20, Page 3), where hFE-grp.C/H shows min = 180 under those conditions.
Is BCW67CE6327HTSA1 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The datasheet explicitly states "Pb-free (RoHS compliant) package" and confirms exemption status for homogeneous materials. No lead-containing variants are offered in standard distribution.
Can BCW67CE6327HTSA1 replace BCW67B in an existing design?
Yes, BCW67CE6327HTSA1 is functionally identical to BCW67B in electrical specs and pinout, but belongs to hFE group C (vs group B's min 50). Its higher guaranteed gain improves noise immunity in low-base-drive applications, though layout and thermal design remain unchanged due to identical SOT23 packaging and RthJS.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature during pulsed operation?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 150 °C regardless of operating mode. For pulsed conditions, the datasheet permits Ptot(max)/Ptot(DC) ratios up to 5× for pulse widths ≤ 100 µs (duty cycle ≤ 2%), provided Tj does not exceed 150 °C - verified via transient thermal impedance curves in Application Note EHP00399.
