BCX19

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-23

BCX19 from Nexperia, 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 B passive Base terminal of the NPN general purpose transistor; the datasheet rates peak base current (IBM) at 200 mA.
2 E passive Emitter terminal of the NPN general purpose transistor; the emitter-base voltage (VEBO) is rated at 5 V maximum with open collector.
3 C passive Collector terminal of the NPN general purpose transistor; rated at 500 mA DC collector current, 1 A peak, and 50 V collector-base voltage (VCBO) with open emitter.
