BC558 PNP Transistor

BC558 is a PNP transistor hence the collector and emitter will be closed (Forward biased) when the base pin is held at ground and will be opened (Reverse biased) when a signal is provided to base pin.  Specifications Bi-Polar PNP Amplifier Transistor DC Current Gain (hFE) is 800 maximum Continuous Collector current (IC) is 100mA Peak Collector current (Ic) is 200mA Emitter Base Voltage (VBE) is 5V Base Current(IB) is 200mA peak
