BAS70W-7

Single Diodes Overview

The BAS70W-7 is a surface mount Schottky barrier diode manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 70 V and a forward continuous current rating of 70 mA. The device dissipates up to 200 mW of power with a thermal resistance of 625 °C/W. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 410 mV at 1 mA and 1000 mV at 15 mA, alongside a reverse current of 100 nA at 50 V. The component operates within an ambient temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and utilizes an SOT323 package.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low turn-on voltage for efficient signal processing
• Fast switching capability suitable for high-frequency applications
• PN junction guard ring structure provides transient and ESD protection

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in low-voltage circuits
• Clamping and protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD)
• High-speed switching in consumer electronics

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packing quantity, as the standard tape and reel configuration contains 3,000 units. Confirm that the requested part number corresponds to the standard BAS70W variant rather than the specialized -04, -05, or -06 versions which may have different electrical tolerances. Ensure compliance with RoHS and halogen-free requirements if specified for the target assembly process.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact surface mount solution is required for low-voltage Schottky rectification. The SOT323 package offers space efficiency compared to larger through-hole alternatives. Consider the 70 mA current limit and 200 mW power dissipation constraints during thermal design. Verify that the 70 V reverse voltage rating aligns with the maximum circuit operating conditions to ensure reliable performance.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the BAS70W series of surface mount Schottky barrier diodes produced by Diodes Incorporated. The series includes variants such as BAS70W-04, BAS70W-05, and BAS70W-06, which share similar physical packaging but may differ in specific electrical parameters. The BAS70W-7 represents the standard version of this family designed for general-purpose applications requiring fast switching and low forward voltage drop.
