BAS70TW-7

Diode Arrays Overview

The BAS70TW-7-F is a surface mount Schottky barrier diode array manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It utilizes the SOT363 package and operates with a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 70 V and a forward continuous current of 70 mA. The device features a maximum forward voltage of 410 mV at 1.0 mA and a maximum reverse current of 100 nA at 50 V. Power dissipation is rated at 200 mW, with a thermal resistance junction-to-ambient air of 625 °C/W. Total capacitance is limited to 2.0 pF at 0 V reverse bias, and the reverse recovery time is 5.0 ns.

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm packing quantity and carrier type. Confirm RoHS compliance status and halogen-free classification requirements prior to procurement. Ensure the selected variant matches the required AEC-Q101 qualification if automotive applications are intended. Cross-reference datasheet revision numbers to validate electrical characteristics.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require an ultra-small surface mount package like SOT363. Consider the 70 mA forward current rating and 70 V reverse voltage limits for circuit design. Evaluate the 200 mW power dissipation capability relative to ambient temperature conditions. Verify that the 2.0 pF total capacitance meets high-frequency signal integrity requirements.
