Overview

The BC856 is a bipolar Transistors BJT made by ZRE in a SOT-23 package with 3 pins. 100MHz 100mA 100nA 200mW 500mV 65V PNP SOT-23 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:BC856, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. JLCPCB lists it (part C779724).

Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BC856?

Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BC856 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BC856?

SOT-23, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the BC856 datasheet?

ZRE publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the BC856?

JLCPCB lists it as part C779724, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the BC856?

Parts like it in the library: the PBSS4140T by Nexperia, the PMBS3906 by Nexperia, the S9012 by Guangdong Hottech and the BC856 by HT. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
