BC817K-16HR

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC817K-16HR from Nexperia, 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 B input Base of the NPN transistor; peak base current is limited to IBM 200 mA (single pulse, tp ≤ 1 ms).
2 E passive Emitter of the NPN transistor; emitter-base voltage VEBO is limited to 7 V with open collector.
3 C passive Collector of the NPN transistor; collector current is limited to IC 500 mA continuous and ICM 1 A peak (tp ≤ 1 ms), with VCEO 45 V.
