The BC856BWE6327BTSA1 is a 65 V, 100 mA PNP general-purpose switching transistor from Infineon in a tiny SC-70 (SOT-323) package.
The 250 MHz transition frequency handles low-speed PWM and logic-level interfaces.
Infineon lists this part as obsolete. That means no factory orders, no last-time-buy window — the only channel is independent distribution and surplus stock. If you have a BOM line that calls out this exact order code, you are looking at broker or overstock inventory. The good news: the BC856 family is a standard small-signal PNP, and the SC-70 footprint is common, so a pin-compatible replacement is often a straight swap — verify hFE bin and Vce(sat) against your circuit before committing.
