The same spec sheet is referenced for both: http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/302/BF862-840156.pdf For some reason, NXP's or Mouser's data-capture picked out two different Idss specs. (25mA, 40mA). Both are listed in the spec sheet, under two different test conditions. Never trust the online product selectors! ;-)
Transistor part number suffixes--215? 235? Whazzat?

I wasn't sure about it then, that's why I left it open by saying, "I'll let you figure it out from there." Glad someone did! Mikek PS. Kinda poor practice by Mouser.
