BC817

Changjing · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC817 from Changjing, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 BASE input Base of the NPN transistor; emitter-base voltage is limited to 5 V (VEBO) and VBE(sat) is max 1.2 V at IC=500 mA, IB=50 mA.
2 EMITTER passive Emitter of the NPN transistor; carries the full collector current up to 0.5 A continuous with 5 V maximum emitter-base voltage.
3 COLLECTOR passive Collector of the NPN transistor; rated 45 V collector-emitter (VCEO), 50 V collector-base (VCBO), 0.5 A continuous current and 0.3 W dissipation.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BC817
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23
  • 3D model: SOT-23 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: bc817-etched.step / bc817-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bc817.step / bc817.glb are the bare package body.
