BAV170-7-F

Overview

The BAV170-7-F is a dual surface mount low leakage diode manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 85 V and a working peak reverse voltage of 85 V. The device supports a forward continuous current of 215 mA for a single diode configuration. Electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse recovery time of 3.0 µs and a total capacitance of 2 pF at 0 V reverse bias. Power dissipation is rated at 250 mW with a thermal resistance junction to ambient air of 500 °C/W. The component operates within an ambient temperature range of -55 to +150 °C.

Feature Summary

• Dual internal diode configuration housed in a compact SOT23 surface mount package suitable for automated insertion.
• Engineered for very low leakage current performance, ensuring minimal power loss in high-impedance circuits.
• Compliant with RoHS directives and constructed using halogen-free and antimony-free materials.

Applications

• General purpose switching applications requiring fast response times.
• Clamping circuits for signal protection.
• Logic level shifting between different voltage domains.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packing quantity. The standard -7-F suffix indicates a tape and reel carrier containing 3,000 units per reel. Confirm that the procurement channel is authorized to ensure product authenticity and adherence to storage guidelines for moisture-sensitive devices.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual diode solution is required in a minimal footprint SOT23 package. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the 85 V peak repetitive reverse rating. Consider the 215 mA continuous forward current limit for load requirements. Verify compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment due to the tape and reel packaging format.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BAV series of small-signal switching diodes produced by Diodes Incorporated. The series offers various configurations including common cathode and common anode setups. The BAV170 specifically provides a dual diode arrangement optimized for low leakage and moderate speed switching operations in consumer and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

The BAV170Q-7-F serves as a qualified automotive-grade alternative within the same package and electrical specifications.
