BAS83-GS08

Single Diodes Overview

The BAS83-GS08 is a small signal Schottky diode manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors, housed in the MiniMELF (SOD-80) glass passivated package. It features a maximum reverse voltage of 60 V and supports a forward continuous current of 30 mA with a peak forward surge current capability of 500 mA. The device exhibits low capacitance of 1.6 pF at 1 V and 1 MHz, ensuring very low switching times. Electrical characteristics include a typical forward voltage drop of 410 mV at 1 mA and a reverse leakage current of 200 nA at maximum rated voltage.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Integrated protection ring against static discharge
• Low capacitance for high-frequency applications
• Very low switching time
• Low forward voltage drop

Single Diodes Applications

• HF-detector
• Protection circuit
• Diode for low currents with a low supply voltage
• Small battery charger
• DC/DC converter for notebooks

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix to confirm packaging configuration. The GS08 variant indicates a 2.5K quantity per 7-inch reel using 8 mm tape. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance standards as defined in the material categorization documentation. Ensure the requested part number matches the exact electrical ratings required for the target application design.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 60 V reverse voltage rating is required within a MiniMELF form factor. The BAS83 variant provides higher voltage tolerance compared to the BAS81 or BAS82 models. Consider the thermal resistance of 320 K/W and the 125 °C junction temperature limit during power dissipation analysis. Verify compatibility with surface mount assembly processes suitable for the SOD-80 package geometry.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the BAS81, BAS82, and BAS83 series of small signal Schottky diodes from Vishay Semiconductors. All variants share identical physical dimensions and thermal characteristics but differ in their maximum reverse voltage ratings. The BAS83 specifically denotes the 60 V version within this family, utilizing the same MiniMELF glass passivation technology for reliability.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same Vishay series include BAS81-GS08 and BAS82-GS08, provided the lower reverse voltage ratings are acceptable for the circuit design.
