BAT43WS

Single Diodes Overview

The BAT43WS is a Schottky barrier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, housed in an SOD-523F surface-mount package. It features a maximum DC reverse voltage of 30V and an average forward rectified current rating of 200mA. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage drop of 1V at a forward current of 200mA. These electrical characteristics define its operational limits for signal processing and low-power rectification tasks within compact electronic designs.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes Schottky barrier technology to achieve fast switching speeds and low forward voltage drop
• Designed for surface-mount assembly using the compact SOD-523F package format
• Constructed with silicon material suitable for standard signal diode applications

Single Diodes Applications

• Signal detection circuits requiring low forward voltage
• Power supply protection against reverse polarity
• Clamping applications in high-speed digital logic interfaces

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation when sourcing, as multiple vendors produce components under the BAT43WS identifier. Confirm that the received component matches the SOD-523F package dimensions and electrical ratings specified in the official datasheet. Ensure compliance with relevant environmental directives if required for the target market.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a small footprint is critical due to the SOD-523F package size. Choose it for applications requiring a low forward voltage drop to minimize power loss in signal paths. Consider the 30V reverse voltage rating to ensure adequate margin for the operating circuit conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the broader BAT43 family of Schottky diodes, which are widely used for their speed and efficiency. Variants within this family may differ in packaging or specific electrical tolerances. The BAT43WS specifically denotes the version packaged in the SOD-523F form factor, distinguishing it from other leaded or differently sized equivalents.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include BAT43X and BAT43W-V, which share similar 30V/200mA specifications. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance before substitution. Other manufacturers offer equivalent parts such as BAT43WS-T, but functional equivalence must be confirmed via datasheet comparison.
