BC846A

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC846A from Nexperia, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 B input Base input terminal; controls collector current with maximum emitter-base voltage of 6 V open collector.
2 E passive Emitter terminal; common reference point for 100 mA maximum collector current and 65 V maximum collector-emitter voltage.
3 C passive Collector terminal; rated for maximum 100 mA collector current at 65 V maximum collector-emitter voltage.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BC846A
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23
  • 3D model: SOT-23 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: bc846a-etched.step / bc846a-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bc846a.step / bc846a.glb are the bare package body.
