BAV70_L99Z

Overview

The BAV70_L99Z is a dual switching diode array manufactured by onsemi, housed in an SOT-563 surface-mount package. It features a common cathode configuration with a peak reverse repetitive voltage (Vrrm) of 70 V and a maximum continuous forward current (If) of 200 mA. The device exhibits a peak reverse recovery time (trr) of 6 ns and a maximum forward voltage (Vf) of 1.25 V. It supports a peak non-repetitive forward surge current (Ifsm) of 500 mA and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual switching diode array integrated into a compact SOT-563 surface-mount package for space-constrained designs.
• Common cathode configuration simplifies circuit topology by sharing a single ground reference for both diodes.
• Fast switching characteristics with a 6 ns reverse recovery time suitable for high-speed signal processing applications.

Applications

• High-speed signal switching and routing in consumer electronics
• Logic level shifting and protection circuits in digital interfaces
• Clamping and steering diodes in communication modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix L99Z against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure the selected component matches the required thermal management and packaging standards for your specific assembly process. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to validate authenticity and traceability before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual diode solution is required in a minimal footprint SOT-563 package. It is appropriate for applications demanding fast switching speeds and low forward voltage drops. Consider the 70 V reverse voltage rating and 200 mA current limit to ensure adequate headroom for the target circuit conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the broader family of small-signal switching diodes offered by onsemi. It shares functional similarities with other BAV series devices but distinguishes itself through the specific SOT-563 package format. This packaging allows for higher density placement on printed circuit boards compared to traditional discrete diode packages.
