Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix against official NXP documentation to confirm package and tape-and-reel specifications. Confirm end-of-life status prior to design-in, as availability may be restricted. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint dimensions for the SOD-87 MELF package during procurement planning.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring moderate current handling with standard switching speeds. Evaluate the 400 V reverse voltage rating against peak inverse voltage requirements. Consider the 1.5 A average current limit for thermal management. Verify that the 3 µs reverse recovery time meets circuit timing constraints compared to faster alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to NXP's discrete semiconductor portfolio, specifically within the rectifier diode category. The BYD series typically addresses general electronics needs. The SOD-87 MELF package provides a compact form factor for surface-mount assembly, balancing electrical performance with board space efficiency in consumer and industrial designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official NXP substitution guides for verified equivalents. Cross-reference key parameters such as 400 V reverse voltage, 1.5 A current rating, and SOD-87 package compatibility when evaluating alternative components.
