BAS40-7-F

Single Diodes Overview

The BAS40-7-F is a surface-mount Schottky Barrier Diode from Diodes Incorporated, housed in an SOT23 (Standard) package. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 40V and a forward continuous current rating of 200mA. The device offers a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.0V at rated current and a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.2µA. Designed for fast switching applications, it includes a PN Junction Guard Ring for transient and ESD protection. The component is totally lead-free, RoHS compliant, and halogen and antimony free.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• Fast switching capability with low reverse recovery time
• PN Junction Guard Ring provides transient and ESD protection

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in consumer electronics
• Clamping and protection circuits
• Power supply input rectification

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '-7-F' corresponds to the 3000-unit tape and reel packing configuration as documented in the official Diodes Incorporated datasheet. Confirm that the required quantity aligns with this standard packaging unit. Ensure compliance with RoHS and halogen-free requirements if specified for your assembly process. Cross-reference the date code and marking information to verify manufacturing origin and age. Always consult the latest version of the product datasheet for any updates to mechanical or electrical specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select the BAS40-7-F when a compact surface-mount solution is required for low-voltage, low-current rectification tasks. The SOT23 package offers space-saving benefits for dense PCB layouts. Consider this part for applications demanding fast switching speeds and robust ESD protection due to its integrated guard ring structure. Evaluate the thermal resistance and power dissipation limits against your expected operating conditions to ensure reliable performance within the specified temperature range.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the BAS40 series of Schottky Barrier Diodes manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. The series includes variants such as BAS40-04, -05, and -06, which share similar core characteristics but may differ in specific testing conditions or automotive qualifications like AEC-Q101. The BAS40-7-F specifically denotes the standard commercial grade variant packaged in reels of 3000 units, distinct from the Q-series parts designed for automotive change control requirements.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other BAS40 series variants like BAS40-04-7-F, BAS40-05-7-F, or BAS40-06-7-F, provided their specific electrical tolerances meet your design requirements. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions (SOT23 Standard) to ensure physical interchangeability without modifying the PCB layout.
