BAT54CW RF

Single Diodes Overview

The BAT54CW RF is a dual common cathode Schottky barrier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in an SOT-323 surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 30 V and a continuous forward current of 200 mA. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage of 1 V, a peak reverse current of 2 uA, and a maximum forward surge current of 600 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Dual series configuration with common cathode topology for efficient circuit integration
• Schottky barrier construction enabling low power loss and high efficiency
• Ultra-small surface mount package design optimized for space-constrained applications

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose switching circuits
• Voltage clamping applications
• Protection circuits requiring fast recovery characteristics

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RF' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm reel packaging specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with Taiwan Semiconductor as datasheet details may vary by production batch. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact pinout and configuration required for the target PCB layout.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Schottky diode in an SOT-323 package is required. The 30 V rating and 200 mA current capacity suit low-voltage signal processing tasks. Compare the 1 V forward voltage drop against alternatives if lower conduction loss is critical. Verify thermal management requirements given the small package size and operating temperature limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the BAT54 family of Schottky barrier rectifiers. Variants such as BAT54S and BAT54C offer similar functionalities but may differ in package type or specific electrical tolerances. The BAT54CW variant specifically denotes the common cathode configuration within the ultra-small surface mount form factor provided by Taiwan Semiconductor.
