BAV170T-7-G

Overview

The BAV170T-7-G is a surface-mount low leakage diode array manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a common cathode configuration housed in an SOT-523 package, which is a molded plastic case with UL 94V-0 flammability rating. The device operates with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 85 V and a continuous forward current of 125 mA. It exhibits very low leakage current, typically 2 pA at VR=75 V, and maintains low capacitance characteristics suitable for high-speed switching applications.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount design optimized for automatic insertion processes
• Extremely low leakage current performance under specified reverse bias conditions
• Low junction capacitance for efficient signal handling

Applications

• General purpose rectification in compact electronic circuits
• Signal switching applications requiring minimal leakage
• High-speed logic interface protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' corresponds to RoHS compliance and halogen-free status as defined by Diodes Incorporated official documentation. Confirm the SOT-523 package dimensions and pinout match the target PCB footprint. Ensure the ordering part number aligns with the requested tape and reel quantity specifications provided in the manufacturer's catalog.

Selection Notes

Select this component when low leakage current is critical for circuit accuracy or power efficiency. The SOT-523 package offers a small form factor ideal for space-constrained designs. Consider the 85 V reverse voltage rating to ensure adequate margin for the intended operating environment. Verify thermal management requirements based on the expected forward current load.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BAV170 series of low-leakage diode arrays from Diodes Incorporated. It shares the same internal structure and electrical characteristics as other variants in the family, differentiated primarily by packaging and environmental compliance suffixes. The SOT-523 package is commonly used alongside similar small-signal diodes like BAS116 and BAW156 in portable and consumer electronics.
