Overview
The BC856BS,135 is a 65 V, 100 mA PNP/PNP general-purpose transistor pair manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. This component is packaged in a very small Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) plastic package, specifically the TSSOP6 (SOT363) package. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications, offering low collector capacitance, low collector-emitter saturation voltage, and closely matched current gain. This transistor pair is particularly useful for reducing the number of components and board space, and it ensures no mutual interference between the transistors.
