BAV301-TR3

Overview

The BAV301-TR3 is a silicon epitaxial planar switching diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a MicroMELF hermetically sealed package with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 120 V and a continuous forward current rating of 250 mA. The device exhibits a typical reverse recovery time of 50 ns, a maximum forward voltage of 1 V at 100 mA, and a junction temperature range up to 175 °C.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed construction in a compact MicroMELF case
• Electrical characteristics identical to the BAV100 series
• Compatible with SOD-323 and SOT-23 footprints for space-saving designs

Applications

• General purpose rectification
• High voltage switching circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code matches the required voltage rating (BAV301 indicates 120 V). Confirm packaging options such as TR3 or TR reels align with assembly requirements. Ensure compliance with material categorization standards and RoHS directives as specified in the datasheet documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-voltage switching diode requires a hermetic seal and small footprint. It serves as an electrical equivalent to the BAV100 series but utilizes a different package style. Verify thermal resistance limits and operating temperature ranges against specific application constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BAV300 series family, which includes variants rated for 60 V, 200 V, and 250 V. All members share identical electrical data and physical dimensions, differing only in their breakdown voltage specifications. The BAV301 specifically targets applications requiring a 120 V reverse voltage rating.
