BAV70-TP

Overview

The BAV70-TP is a dual common-anode switching diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 75 V and a continuous forward current rating of 200 mA. The device exhibits a low forward voltage drop of 1.27 V at 10 mA and a fast reverse recovery time of 4 ns. Packaged in the compact SOT-23 surface-mount case, it operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual common-anode configuration for efficient circuit design
• Fast switching capability with minimal reverse recovery time
• High thermal stability suitable for demanding environments

Applications

• General-purpose signal switching
• Clamping and protection circuits
• Logic level shifting

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer marking code on the component body matches MCC specifications. Confirm the package type is SOT-23 and check for any specific tape-and-reel requirements if ordering in bulk quantities. Ensure the date code aligns with project timelines.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual diode solution is required in a small footprint. It is suitable for applications needing fast switching speeds and moderate current handling capabilities. Consider the common-anode topology for compatibility with existing schematic designs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the family of small-signal switching diodes designed for high-speed digital and analog applications. It serves as a cost-effective alternative to discrete single diodes, reducing board space and assembly complexity while maintaining reliable performance standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the BAV70WT from Diodes Inc. or the BAS70 from Nexperia. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters such as reverse leakage current before implementation.
