BC857 3E

Changjing · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC857 3E 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 passive Base lead of the BC857 PNP transistor; the datasheet rates the emitter-base voltage at -5 V and the continuous collector current at -0.1 A.
2 EMITTER passive Emitter lead of the BC857 PNP transistor; the datasheet rates the emitter-base voltage at -5 V and the continuous collector current at -0.1 A.
3 COLLECTOR passive Collector lead of the BC857 PNP transistor; the datasheet rates the collector-emitter voltage at -45 V for BC857 and the continuous collector current at -0.1 A.
