BC817-16-QR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The recommended PCB footprint for the BC817-16-QR is a standard SOT23 package with a 1.3mm x 1.3mm body size and 0.5mm lead pitch. A recommended land pattern can be found in the Nexperia SOT23 package outline drawing.

  • To ensure reliable operation of the BC817-16-QR in high-temperature environments, make sure to follow proper thermal design and layout guidelines, such as providing adequate heat sinking and minimizing thermal resistance. Also, ensure that the device is operated within its recommended operating temperature range of -40°C to 150°C.

  • The maximum allowed voltage on the base-emitter junction of the BC817-16-QR is 6V. Exceeding this voltage may cause damage to the device or affect its reliability.

  • While the BC817-16-QR can be used as a switch, it is not recommended for high-frequency applications due to its relatively high transition frequency (ft) of 100 MHz. For high-frequency applications, consider using a transistor with a higher ft, such as the BC817-25-QR.

  • To handle ESD protection when working with the BC817-16-QR, follow proper ESD handling procedures, such as using an ESD wrist strap or mat, and ensure that the device is stored in an ESD-protected environment. The BC817-16-QR has a human body model (HBM) ESD rating of 2 kV.
