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). |
