Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BCP56?

Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BCP56 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-223, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BCP56?

SOT223, with 4 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

What can replace the BCP56?
