BC547 NPN General Purpose Transistor (TO-92 / DIP Package)
The BC547 NPN General Purpose Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) in a standard TO-92 through-hole (DIP compatible) package is an industry-essential component for low-power amplification and high-speed signal switching. Designed with a collector-emitter voltage (V_CEO) of 45V and a maximum continuous collector current (I_C) of 100mA, the BC547 features a high DC current gain (h_FE) ranging from 110 to 800. It is ideal for driving small relays, LEDs, buzzers, and signal amplification in Arduino, microcontrollers, sensor modules, audio preamplifiers, and complementary push-pull circuits when paired with the BC557 PNP transistor.
