Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number BAS70-04-G3-18 against official Vishay documentation to confirm the dual serial configuration and G3 lead-free compliance. Ensure the packaging code matches the 10K units per 13-inch reel specification. Confirm that the component meets the required AEC-Q101 qualification status if automotive application is intended, as this may require specific ordering.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual serial Schottky diode topology is required in a compact SOT-23 footprint. Consider its 70 V reverse voltage rating and 200 mA forward current capability for general purpose signal handling. Evaluate the 5 ns reverse recovery time for high-speed requirements. Verify thermal dissipation limits on the target PCB layout against the specified thermal resistance values.

Diode Arrays Part Context
