BAT41-TAP

Single Diodes Overview

The BAT41-TAP is a small signal Schottky diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It utilizes a DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial leaded package and is designed for general-purpose applications. The device features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and a continuous forward current rating of 100 mA. Electrical characteristics include a maximum leakage current of 100 nA at 50 V, a typical forward voltage of 450 mV at 1 mA, and a diode capacitance of 2 pF at 1 MHz. The component operates within an ambient temperature range of -65 °C to +125 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Features low turn-on voltage and high breakdown voltage suitable for general-purpose applications
• Incorporates a PN junction guard ring to provide protection against excessive voltage such as electrostatic discharges

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose electronic circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix TAP corresponds to the ammopack packaging configuration containing 10K units per pack. Confirm that the component meets material categorization compliance standards as defined in Vishay documentation. Ensure the selected variant matches the required DO-35 axial leaded form factor for the intended assembly process.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount alternative is not required and axial leads are preferred. The BAT41 offers a balance of low forward voltage and fast switching capabilities. Consider the thermal resistance and power dissipation limits relative to the expected operating ambient temperature to ensure reliable performance under load conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BAT41 series of small signal Schottky diodes produced by Vishay Semiconductors. The standard BAT41 is available in both surface mount and MiniMELF configurations, while the BAT41-TAP specifically denotes the axial DO-35 package variant supplied in ammopacks. This family is engineered for applications requiring low capacitance and negligible switching losses.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The datasheet indicates that the LL41 designation refers to the MiniMELF case version of the same device. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions if substituting with other axial Schottky diodes from different manufacturers.
