BAT43-TAP

Single Diodes Overview

The BAT43-TAP is a small signal Schottky diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It utilizes the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial through-hole package and features a single circuit configuration with a black cathode band. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -65 °C to +125 °C and supports a junction temperature up to 125 °C. Key electrical specifications include a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 30 V, a forward continuous current rating of 200 mA, and a maximum leakage current of 0.5 μA at 25 V. Typical characteristics feature a forward voltage of 330 mV at 2 mA, a diode capacitance of 7 pF at 1 V and 1 MHz, and a reverse recovery time of 5 ns.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code matches the specific TAP packaging variant, which denotes ammo tape packing. Confirm the component meets material categorization compliance requirements as defined by Vishay standards. Ensure technical parameters are validated for the specific application environment before finalizing procurement decisions.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a through-hole Schottky diode with low forward voltage and fast switching capabilities is required. The DO-35 package suits designs needing axial lead mounting. Consider the 30 V reverse voltage limit and 200 mA current rating to ensure adequate headroom for the intended operational conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BAT42/BAT43 series of small signal Schottky diodes from Vishay Semiconductors. The series offers variants in different packages, including SOD-123 and MiniMELF SOD-80 cases. The BAT43-TAP specifically refers to the BAT43 type designation packaged in ammo tape format for automated assembly processes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

BAT42 serves as a related variant within the same series offering similar characteristics but potentially different forward voltage profiles.
