BC857B_R1_00001

PANJIT International · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BC857B_R1_00001 from PANJIT International, 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 terminal of the PNP transistor, with the emitter-base voltage limited to -5 V (VEBO) per the absolute ratings.
2 Emitter passive Emitter terminal of the PNP transistor, the reference for the base-emitter voltage and the -5 V VEBO rating.
3 Collector passive Collector terminal of the PNP transistor; for the BC857 device the collector-emitter voltage is -45 V and the continuous collector current is -100 mA (peak -200 mA).
