BC557B Description
The BC557B is a PNP transistor, the collector and emitter are closed (forward biased) when the base pin is held at the ground and open (reverse biased) when a signal is applied to the base pin.
BC557B Features

DC Current Gain (hFE) is 300 maximum
Continuous Collector current (IC) is 100mA
Emitter Base Voltage (VBE) is 6V
Base Current(IB) is 5mA maximum
Available in TO-92 Package
BC557B Applications
Driver Modules like Relay Driver, LED driver etc.
