Pinout of BC167A

The BC167A is manufactured in a plastic TO-92 case. When looking at the flat side with the leads pointed downward, the three leads emerging from the transistor are, from left to right, the emitter, collector, and base leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.

Classification of hFE

The BC167A transistor can have a current gain of 110 to 220. The gain of the BC167 will be in the range from 110 to 800, for the BC167B it will be in the range from 200 to 450, for the BC167C it will be in the range from 420 to 800.

Complementary PNP transistor

The complementary PNP transistor to the BC167A is the BC257A.
