# BC818-40LT1G

**onsemi** · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC818-40LT1G from onsemi, 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 | passive | Base terminal of the NPN general-purpose transistor; the datasheet gives no separate base-drive limit, so base operation is bounded by the absolute maximum ratings (VEBO 5.0 V, continuous IC 500 mA). |
| 2 | EMITTER | passive | Emitter terminal of the NPN transistor; the emitter-base breakdown voltage V(BR)EBO is specified at a minimum of 5.0 V. |
| 3 | COLLECTOR | passive | Collector terminal of the NPN transistor; rated at VCEO 25 V, VCBO 30 V, and continuous collector current IC 500 mAdc. |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `BC818-40LT1G`
- Footprint: `Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23`
- 3D model: SOT-23 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `bc818-40lt1g-etched.step` / `bc818-40lt1g-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `bc818-40lt1g.step` / `bc818-40lt1g.glb` are the bare package body.
