BC868

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89

BC868 from Nexperia, in a SOT-89. 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 emitter passive Emitter terminal of the NPN transistor; the datasheet limits the emitter-base voltage to 5 V (VEBO, open collector).
2 collector passive Collector terminal of the NPN transistor; the datasheet limits the collector current to 2 A (IC), with a 3 A peak (ICM, single pulse, tp ≤ 1 ms).
3 base passive Base terminal of the NPN transistor; the datasheet limits the base current to 0.4 A (IB), with a 0.4 A peak (IBM, single pulse, tp ≤ 1 ms).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BC868
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-89-3
  • 3D model: SOT-89 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: bc868-etched.step / bc868-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bc868.step / bc868.glb are the bare package body.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Nexperia datasheet (23 pp, sha256 b75f4ed10eba583e, retrieved 2026-10-09, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: parts-factory 2.0.0 / extract_pins 0.3, primary claude-haiku-5-5 (text), consensus claude-sonnet-5-5 (agreed), guards: pin_guards 0.1: passed. Pins are checked against the footprint pad set and their cited datasheet pages before publish.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
