BC847C,215

Nexperia

BC847C,215 is Nexperia’s highest-gain grade of the BC847 NPN general-purpose transistor — 45 V / 100 mA in SOT-23 — with DC current gain hFE 420–800 (minimum 420 at 2 mA, 5 V). The ‘C’ is the gain rank: A covers 110–220, B covers 200–450, and C covers 420–800; ‘,215’ denotes tape-and-reel packing of the same die. AEC-Q101 qualified, which makes the C grade a defensible pick for automotive-adjacent small-signal stages. Selection advice: BC847C is footprint- and pin-compatible with BC847A/B, but dropping a lower grade into a bias-sensitive amplifier stage shifts the operating point — re-check base bias when substituting grades. For pure switching the grade barely matters, and BC847B is usually cheaper and better stocked. Pair with the PNP complement BC857C for push-pull or complementary driver stages. Parameters trace to the manufacturer datasheet; state quantity, packing and date-code requirements in your RFQ — we reconfirm the offered lot before quotation and reply within 24 hours.

SELECTION GUIDANCE

BC847C,215 selection guidance

BC847C,215 is a NPN transistor from Nexperia, orderable in the SOT-23 package. The ordering code fixes the exact configuration you receive — package, grade and packing — so procurement starts with matching this code character-for-character against your BOM, not just the base series name.

When you request a quote, include the full ordering code, the target packing format (reel, tube, tray or cut tape), your quantity and any date-code or lot requirements. We reconfirm manufacturer, suffix, package, date code and traceability against the actual offered lot before any commercial quote is issued, and every RFQ gets a reply within 24 hours.

COMMON QUESTIONS

BC847C,215 FAQ

What do the suffixes in BC847C,215 mean?

Every suffix in a manufacturer ordering code identifies one exact orderable device — package, temperature grade, packing format or a revision. BC847C,215 names the SOT-23 configuration; a code that differs by even one suffix character may be a different device. Always quote the complete code exactly as it appears on your BOM.

What is the difference between package and packing for BC847C,215?

The package (SOT-23) is the physical form of the device itself. Packing describes how the devices are delivered — reel, tube, tray or cut tape. The same ordering code can ship in different packing formats depending on the lot, so confirm the required packing format when you submit your RFQ.

Can you provide traceability documents for BC847C,215?

Traceability evidence — lot and date-code information, labels and photos — is confirmed per lot at quotation time, because it depends on the actual lot offered. Tell us which documents your receiving inspection requires when you submit the RFQ, and we will confirm what can be provided for the offered lot.

How do I request a quotation for BC847C,215?

Add BC847C,215 to your RFQ with the complete ordering code, the manufacturer (Nexperia), your quantity, the target packing format and any date-code requirements. We reply to every RFQ within 24 hours.
