MMBT4240 from ST Semtech, 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 terminal of the NPN general-purpose transistor; the emitter-base voltage is limited to 5 V (VEBO) and the peak base current to 300 mA (IBM) in the absolute maximum ratings. |
| 2 | Emitter | passive | Emitter terminal of the NPN general-purpose transistor; the emitter-base voltage is limited to 5 V (VEBO) in the absolute maximum ratings. |
| 3 | Collector | passive | Collector terminal of the NPN general-purpose transistor; the collector-emitter voltage is limited to 40 V (VCEO) and the DC collector current to 2 A (IC) in the absolute maximum ratings. |
