Product details
Overview
NSVBC858AWT1G from onsemi is a PNP silicon general-purpose transistor in SC−70/SOT−323 package, rated for −30 V VCEO, −100 mA IC, and 150 mW power dissipation, used in low-power amplifier and switching circuits in automotive and industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the NSVBC858AWT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC−Q101 qualification, −30 V collector-emitter breakdown, hFE range of 125–250 at −10 mA/−5 V, and SOT−323 thermal performance with RJA = 883 °C/W.
Technical Context
This device operates as a discrete PNP bipolar junction transistor optimized for linear amplification and saturated switching in space-constrained surface-mount designs. Its electrical behavior is defined by VCEO = −30 V, VBE(sat) = −0.7 V (at −10 mA/−0.5 mA), and fT = 100 MHz - enabling stable gain in audio preamps and logic-level translation.
The NSVBC858AWT1G belongs to the BC858A variant group within the BC856/857/858 family, distinguished by its lower voltage rating versus BC856B/BC857B and tighter hFE binning (125–250). It shares the SC−70 mechanical outline and marking code "3J", and is qualified per AEC−Q101 for automotive use.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −30 V - maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in open-base condition; sets upper rail limit for biasing in 24 V automotive systems. |
| IC (cont.) | −100 mA - continuous DC collector current handling; supports signal-level switching in sensor interface and LED driver stages. |
| hFE | 125–250 @ −10 mA, −5 V - DC current gain range defining small-signal amplification capability and base drive requirements. |
| VCE(sat) | −0.3 V @ −10 mA/−0.5 mA - low saturation voltage enables efficient switching with minimal conduction loss in active-low logic gates. |
| fT | 100 MHz - transition frequency confirming usable bandwidth up to mid-VHF for RF detector or oscillator buffer applications. |
| PD | 150 mW @ TA = 25 °C - thermal power limit on FR-5 board; requires derating above 25 °C per RJA = 883 °C/W. |
| Cob | 4.5 pF @ −10 V - output capacitance affecting high-frequency response and stability in tuned amplifier stages. |
Pinout & Package
NSVBC858AWT1G uses the SC−70/SOT−323 package (Case 419, Style 3), a 3-pin surface-mount plastic package measuring 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm × 1.0 mm, optimized for automated placement and low thermal resistance in dense PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control terminal for forward-biased PNP operation; requires negative base current relative to emitter to turn on. |
| 2 | Emiter | Current source terminal in PNP configuration; connected to higher potential rail (e.g., VCC) in common-emitter amplifier topologies. |
| 3 | Collector | Current sink terminal; delivers amplified or switched output current to load referenced to ground or lower potential. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC858BWT1G | Higher hFE bin (220–475 vs. 125–250); identical VCEO, package, and thermal specs. | Suitable where higher current gain reduces base drive burden; not recommended if tight hFE tolerance is required for matched pair biasing. | Select BC858BWT1G when designing for minimum base current consumption in battery-critical systems. |
| NSVBC857CWT1G | Lower VCEO (−45 V), higher hFE (270–520), same package and AEC−Q101 qualification. | Better suited for 36 V industrial bus interfaces requiring wider voltage headroom and higher gain stability at low currents. | Choose NSVBC857CWT1G when interfacing with 24 V PLC backplanes where −45 V rating improves safety margin. |
Compared with BC858BWT1G and NSVBC857CWT1G, the NSVBC858AWT1G offers the narrowest hFE spread and lowest VCEO, making it optimal for cost-sensitive, low-voltage automotive switches where predictable turn-on threshold and thermal efficiency are prioritized over gain variability.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector-emitter voltage rating for NSVBC858AWT1G?
The NSVBC858AWT1G has a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) rating of −30 V at TA = 25 °C. This rating applies under open-base conditions and defines the absolute upper limit for safe DC biasing in circuits such as automotive load switches and sensor buffers. Exceeding this voltage risks avalanche breakdown and permanent device damage.
Is NSVBC858AWT1G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, NSVBC858AWT1G carries the NSV prefix indicating AEC−Q101 qualification and PPAP capability. It has undergone stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and ESD per automotive standards, making it suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics including door modules and lighting controllers.
What is the DC current gain (hFE) range of NSVBC858AWT1G at typical operating conditions?
The NSVBC858AWT1G exhibits an hFE range of 125 to 250 when tested at IC = −10 mA and VCE = −5.0 V. This binning reflects the "A" suffix variant and provides predictable base drive requirements for amplifier bias networks and digital switching applications without requiring gain compensation circuitry.
What package type does NSVBC858AWT1G use, and what are its key mechanical dimensions?
NSVBC858AWT1G uses the SC−70/SOT−323 package (Case 419, Style 3), measuring 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm × 1.0 mm with 0.65 mm pin pitch. Its compact size supports high-density routing on 4-layer automotive PCBs, and the molded plastic body ensures compatibility with lead-free reflow soldering profiles up to 260 °C peak temperature.
Does NSVBC858AWT1G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, NSVBC858AWT1G is Pb−Free, Halogen Free/BFR Free, and fully RoHS compliant per Directive 2011/65/EU. The device contains no lead, brominated flame retardants, or chlorine-based halogens above threshold limits, satisfying environmental compliance mandates for global electronics manufacturing and end-of-life recycling.
