BC107 Description

BC107 is a low-power NPN bipolar junction transistor, which is packaged in a TO-18 metal can. It is mainly designed for general
switching and amplification purposes. It is mainly composed of three terminals, which are called emitter, base, and collector. 

As a current control device, the small current on the base side is used to control the large current on the emitter and collector
sides. When a voltage is applied to the base terminal, it will be biased and draw current and begin to control the large current on the
emitter and collector sides. 

 The movement of electrons plays an important role in the conductivity of any transistor. BC107 is a bipolar junction transistor in 
which conductivity is achieved by two charge carriers including electrons and holes, but most of the charge carriers are electrons. 



The free movement of electrons is like a bridge between the emitter and the collector. The emitter emits electrons, which are then

collected by the collector. Bases are used to control the number of electrons. Since it is an NPN transistor, the base is extremely
positive relative to the emitter. 

The function and doping concentration of the emitter, base, and collector are different. Compared with the base and collector, the
emitter is highly doped. And the voltage on the collector side is much greater than the base voltage. When two diodes are
connected back to back, they form a bipolar junction transistor.

It is mainly composed of three terminals, which are called 1. base 2. Emitter and 3. collector.

Frequently Asked Questions

1.What does BC in BC107 stands for?

B-stands for Silicon Transistor C for- Audio Frequency Range.

2.Is BC107 the same as BC547?

The BC547 and BC107 are both NPN bipolar transistors.BC547 is a modern replacement for the BC107. They are packaged differently
but otherwise look very similar in terms of electrical characteristics. They have the same breakdown voltage; the BC547 has a slightly
better cutoff frequency. The current gain has a very similar range. This means that it could most likely replace the BC107 one-for-one
aboard.

3.What does the numerals 107 stand for in BC107?

107 refers to the serial number, which helps to identify the parameters in the datasheet
