BAV19WS-HE3-18

Single Diodes Overview

The BAV19WS-HE3-18 is a general-purpose small-signal switching diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a nominal reverse voltage of 100 V and a maximum average forward current of 250 mA in the SOD-323 surface-mount package. The device is RoHS compliant and lead-free, designed for high-speed switching applications with low capacitance characteristics.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High-voltage capability suitable for demanding signal processing environments
• Compact SOD-323 surface-mount footprint for space-constrained designs
• Lead-free construction adhering to environmental compliance standards

Single Diodes Applications

• General-purpose signal switching circuits
• High-voltage protection stages
• Fast switching logic interfaces

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix HE3-18 against official Vishay documentation to confirm packaging and material specifications. Ensure compatibility with SOD-323 footprints during layout. Confirm end-of-life status if long-term supply stability is required for production.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 100 V reverse voltage rating and 250 mA forward current are necessary within a compact SMD form factor. Consider its switching speed and capacitance parameters relative to circuit requirements compared to alternative small-signal diodes.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay's HE3 series of ultrafast rectifiers and switching diodes, characterized by low thermal resistance and improved switching performance over standard silicon devices. The SOD-323 package offers a smaller profile than traditional axial leads, facilitating automated assembly.
