BC556 PNP Transistor – Jaycar

Your circuit needs a PNP, not an NPN — and grabbing the wrong polarity means rework. This is the BC556, Jaycar's PNP small-signal transistor. The complement to those NPN parts when your schematic calls for a pull-up or high-side switch. Right part, right polarity, no second pass over the soldering iron
