About the Nexperia USA Inc. BC856 Series

The Nexperia USA Inc. BC856 Series series groups 55 related part numbers, each listed with full specifications, a datasheet where available, and an RFQ option. The listed variants share a common current - collector (Ic) of 100 mA, current - collector cutoff of 15nA (ICBO) and FET type of PNP. Variants differ by case, DC current gain (hFE) (Min) @ ic, vce and mounting, so you can match the exact case your application requires using the selection guide below. The range mixes active and legacy part numbers, so you can source both current Nexperia USA Inc. BC856 Series variants and discontinued ones from a single page.
