Overview

Description

BC817-40-Q is a RoHS-compliant general‑purpose NPN transistor from the BC817 family. The “-40” denotes its gain (hFE) group—mid/low gain compared with other BC817 variants.
Key points:
- Vceo ~ 45 V; Ic max about 0.4–0.5 A (typical small-signal switch/amp currents)
- hFE depends on Ic and temperature; for Ic around a few mA it often ranges roughly from 40 to 160
- Packages: available in through‑hole (TO‑92) and SMD (SOT‑23) variants, depending on vendor
- Uses: switching and low-power signal amplification in audio, sensor, LED-drive, and general purpose circuits
- “Q” indicates RoHS compliance
Note: exact hFE and packaging vary by supplier and lot; consult the specific datasheet for your component.

Features

BC817-40-Q features (general-purpose NPN transistor)
- NPN silicon, general-purpose switching/amplification
- Vceo: 45 V
- Ic: up to 500 mA
- Gain group: part of the BC817 family (-40 denotes the gain variant; actual hFE varies with Ic)
- Low Vce(sat) for switching
- Temperature range: typically -55 °C to +150 °C
- Package: TO-92 (through-hole); Pb-free/RoHS-compliant indicator with the “-Q” suffix
- Suitable for small-signal amplification and switching in consumer electronics
- Complementary to BC807 series (pNP)
Note: For exact hFE and switching specs, refer to the specific datasheet value for the -40-Q variant.

Package

SOT-23 (3-pin) surface-mount package.

Pinout

BC817-40-Q is a 3-pin SOT-23 NPN bipolar transistor used for general-purpose switching and amplification. Pinout (top view, flat face): Pin 1 = Base, Pin 2 = Emitter, Pin 3 = Collector.
