BAP64-04-TP

RF Diode Overview

The MCC BAP64-04-TP is a general-purpose silicon PIN diode housed in an SOT-23 surface-mount package. It features a continuous reverse voltage of 175 V and a forward current rating of 100 mA, with a power dissipation capacity of 250 mW at 90°C ambient temperature. The device exhibits low capacitance values ranging from 0.23 pF to 0.52 pF depending on bias conditions, and low forward resistance. Operating junction temperatures span from -65°C to +150°C, supported by a thermal resistance of 500°C/W.

RF Diode Feature Summary

• Halogen-free "Green" device compliant with environmental standards

RF Diode Applications

• RF switching circuits
• Attenuator applications
• General-purpose rectification in low-power systems

RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify the authenticity of the component by checking the marking code "4K" on the SOT-23 package against official MCC documentation. Purchase only from authorized distributors to ensure traceability and avoid counterfeit parts. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the specific datasheet revision before integration into production.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this component when a small-form-factor PIN diode is required for RF applications. The SOT-23 package suits space-constrained designs. Ensure the operating frequency aligns with the specified capacitance and resistance parameters. Verify that the 175 V reverse voltage rating exceeds the maximum circuit voltage under all transient conditions.

RF Diode Part Context

This part belongs to the BAP64 series, which includes variants BAP64-05 and BAP64-06. These devices share identical electrical characteristics and physical dimensions but are distinguished solely by their internal marking codes (5K and 6K respectively). The series is designed for general-purpose pin diode applications requiring low capacitance and fast switching capabilities.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include BAP64-05-TP and BAP64-06-TP. These parts offer identical electrical performance and pin configurations. Cross-brand replacements require verification of matching capacitance, forward voltage, and package dimensions.
