Nexperia BC856S Dual PNP Transistor Array, SOT-363

The Nexperia BC856S is a dual PNP bipolar transistor array housed in a very small surface-mount plastic package (SOT-363). Designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications, this integrated array delivers reliable performance while saving valuable board space.

This component features low collector capacitance and low collector-emitter saturation voltage, ensuring efficient operation in high-frequency and low-power circuits. The closely matched current gain between the two transistors guarantees consistent performance, making it ideal for applications requiring balanced amplification. By integrating two transistors in a single package, the BC856S reduces the number of components and board space required, while also eliminating mutual interference between the transistors.
