MA6X12500L

Diode Arrays Overview

The MA6X12500L is a silicon epitaxial planar switching diode array manufactured by Panasonic. It integrates four isolated elements within a single Mini6-G1 package (SC-74). The device supports a reverse voltage of 40 V and a maximum forward current of 100 mA per diode. Electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 1.2 V at 100 mA, a reverse current of 100 nA at 40 V, and a terminal capacitance of 5.0 pF. Reverse recovery times are specified as 150 ns for pins 1/6 and 3/5, and 9 ns for pins 2/6 and 3/4.

Diode Arrays Feature Summary

Diode Arrays Applications

• General electronic equipment
• Office equipment
• Communications equipment
• Measuring instruments

Diode Arrays Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lifecycle status directly with Panasonic Industry before procurement, as the datasheet indicates maintenance or discontinuation stages. Confirm that the Mini6-G1 package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure design parameters remain strictly within the absolute maximum ratings to prevent failure.

Diode Arrays Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require multiple switching diodes in a compact surface-mount form factor. The low reverse recovery time variants suit higher-speed switching applications. Verify thermal management capabilities against the 150°C junction temperature limit during operation.

Diode Arrays Part Context

This part belongs to the MA6X series of silicon epitaxial planar switching diodes. It serves as a modern replacement for older discrete diode configurations, consolidating functionality into a standardized SC-74 footprint. The internal connection scheme provides flexible cathode and anode access points across six terminals.

Diode Arrays Replacement Considerations

Consult official Panasonic documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers. Cross-reference pinout compatibility and electrical ratings carefully if considering alternative manufacturers.
