April 15, 2004 by Jeff Shepard

Vishay Intertechnology Inc. (Malvern, PA) announced a new Schottky diode series packaged in the ultra-small SOD-523 (SC79) package with dimensions of 1.2 mm x 0.8 mm x 0.6 mm. With low turn-on voltage, low forward-voltage values, low leakage current, and fast switching, the new BAS40-02V, BAS70-02V, BAS581-02V, and BAT54-02V Schottky diodes are suitable for general rectification applications in mobile communications and computing systems such as notebooks and PDAs; digital cameras, DVD players, and camcorders; and cellular and cordless phones.

The BAS70-02V and BAS581-02V feature a diode capacitance of 2 pF with maximum forward-voltage ratings of 1,000 mV and 370 mV, and leakage currents of 100 nA and 0.5 µA, respectively. The BAS40-02V offers a capacitance of 5 pF, a forward-voltage rating of 1,000 mV, and a leakage current of 100 nA. The BAT54-02V features a capacitance of 12 pF, a forward voltage up to 1,000 mV, and a leakage current of 2 µA. All four Schottky diodes feature a reverse recovery time of 5 ns.

Samples and production quantities of the new Schottky diode series in the SOD-523 package are available now, with lead times of 8 to 10 weeks for larger orders. Pricing for delivery in 100,000-piece quantities is $35 per 1,000 pieces.
