BAS516,115

Single Diodes Overview

The BAS516,115 is a high-speed switching diode manufactured by Nexperia. It is encapsulated in an SOD523 (SC-79) ultra-small and flat lead Surface-Mounted Device plastic package. The device features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and a maximum forward current of 250 mA at 25 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a reverse recovery time of 4 ns, a total power dissipation of 500 mW, and a junction temperature limit of 150 °C. The component operates within an ambient temperature range of -65 °C to 150 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code BAS516,115 against the manufacturer's latest documentation to ensure compatibility with design requirements. Confirm that the SOD523 package dimensions align with the intended PCB footprint. Check for any updates regarding automotive qualification status if the application demands such standards, as standard versions may not be AEC-Q101 qualified unless explicitly stated.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require an ultra-small SMD package like SOD523. It is suitable for applications demanding fast switching speeds and low reverse recovery times. Ensure the operating voltage does not exceed the 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage rating. Consider the thermal resistance and power dissipation limits for heat management in dense layouts.

Single Diodes Part Context

The BAS516 belongs to the family of high-speed switching diodes offered by Nexperia. It is designed for surface-mount technology, providing a compact solution for modern electronic devices. The SOD523 package allows for automated assembly and reduced board space usage compared to larger through-hole alternatives.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the SOD523 package, 100 V reverse voltage, and 4 ns reverse recovery time specifications. Verify pinout compatibility (cathode/anode orientation) before substitution. Cross-reference with Nexperia's official replacement guide for equivalent performance metrics.
