BAT42 A0G

Single Diodes Overview

The BAT42 A0G is a general-purpose Schottky barrier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a silicon construction with a single configuration in an SOD-123-2 surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 30 V and an average forward current rating of 200 mA. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage drop of 1 V at the rated current and supports a forward surge current of 4 A. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop for efficient signal rectification
• Fast switching time suitable for high-frequency applications
• Integrated protection against excessive voltage such as electrostatic discharge

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose signal rectification
• Clamping and protection circuits
• RF detection applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A0G' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm packaging details and compliance status. Confirm availability status, as some variants may be marked as not recommended for new designs. Ensure the selected component matches the required RoHS compliance and lead-free specifications for your assembly process.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low capacitance and fast recovery characteristics in a compact surface-mount form factor. Compare the 30 V reverse voltage and 200 mA current ratings against circuit requirements. Consider the SOD-123-2 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints relative to alternative packages like SOD-523F.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BAT42/BAT43 series of small-signal Schottky diodes widely used in consumer electronics and communication equipment. The BAT42 variant typically offers specific forward voltage characteristics distinct from the BAT43. Taiwan Semiconductor produces this component using standard silicon planar technology optimized for reliability and performance in portable devices.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with BAT43W or BAT46S variants from other manufacturers if pinout compatibility is required. Verify that substitute parts meet the same 30 V reverse voltage and 200 mA current specifications. Check for equivalent forward voltage drops to ensure circuit performance consistency.
