.The BC856B-QVL is a series of 65V, 100mA PNP general-purpose transistors manufactured by Nexperia. The series consists of three individual devices, designated as BC856-Q, BC857-Q, and BC858-Q. The transistors are composed of a Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) with an NPN and PNP transistor architecture, and is commonly used in a variety of circuit designs due to its versatility. Its maximum operating temperature is 125°C, and its Collector-Emitter Voltage is Vceo -65V (BC 856/BC 857) or Vceo -60V (BC 858). It also provides a high DC current gain of hfe 160. It can be used in a variety of applications, including switching, amplifier, and high frequency operation.
