BAV70W

Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor BAV70W is a small signal switching diode array featuring two common cathode silicon junctions in an SOT-323 surface-mount package. It provides a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and supports a maximum forward current of 150 mA per diode under single-loaded conditions. The device exhibits a reverse recovery time of less than 4 ns, ensuring high-speed performance. Power dissipation is rated at 200 mW, with a maximum junction temperature range spanning from -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Extremely fast switching speed suitable for high-frequency applications
• Low junction capacitance minimizing signal distortion
• Low leakage current enhancing circuit efficiency

Applications

• High-speed signal processing circuits
• General-purpose rectifying tasks
• Commercial and industrial electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variants such as -Q or -AQ indicate AEC-Q101 compliance or qualification respectively. Confirm that the standard commercial/industrial grade meets your reliability requirements. Ensure compatibility with RoHS directives and REACH regulations during procurement. Validate packaging specifications against your assembly line needs.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring rapid switching capabilities within a compact footprint. Consider the 100 V reverse voltage rating for appropriate signal handling. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the 200 mW power dissipation limit. Compare junction capacitance values against other series options if low-capacitance performance is critical for your specific application frequency.
