MA6X12400L

Diode Arrays Overview

The MA6X12400L is a silicon epitaxial planar switching diode manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. It integrates four isolated elements within a single SC-74 Mini6-G2 package, designed for high-density mounting in switching circuits. The device features centrosymmetrical wiring to eliminate taping direction constraints. Key electrical parameters include an 80 V reverse voltage rating, a 100 mA forward current per diode, and a maximum peak reverse voltage of 80 V. The component exhibits a short reverse recovery time of 3 ns and a terminal capacitance of 2 pF at 1 MHz.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

• Integrates four isolated switching diodes into a single compact package for high-density circuit mounting
• Centrosymmetrical pin configuration allows flexible orientation during automated tape-and-reel assembly
• Optimized for high-speed applications with minimal reverse recovery time and low terminal capacitance

Diode Arrays Applications

• General electronic equipment switching circuits
• Communications equipment signal processing
• Office equipment power management
• Measuring instruments logic interfaces

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lifecycle status directly with Panasonic Industry before procurement, as the datasheet indicates maintenance or discontinuation phases. Confirm that the SC-74 Mini6-G2 package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS Directive (EU 2002/95/EC) if required by your manufacturing standards. Request the most up-to-date product standards from the manufacturer prior to final design approval.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require multiple independent switching diodes in a small surface-mount form factor. The centrosymmetrical layout simplifies pick-and-place programming compared to non-symmetric packages. Consider the 3 ns reverse recovery time for high-frequency signal integrity. Verify that the 80 V reverse voltage rating exceeds the peak transient voltages present in your specific application environment.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the Panasonic MA series of silicon epitaxial planar switching diodes. These components are engineered for standard applications in general-purpose electronics rather than specialized automotive or aerospace environments. The MA6X124 designation represents the internal model number, while the 00L suffix typically denotes packaging variations such as reel quantities, though specific suffix definitions should be confirmed via official documentation.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Consult Panasonic Industry for officially confirmed substitute part numbers. Do not assume functional equivalence with generic quad-diode packages without verifying pinout compatibility and absolute maximum ratings against the original specifications.
