Product details
Overview
1N4148W-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount fast-switching silicon signal diode in SOD-123 package, rated for 100 V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 300 mA forward current, and 4 ns reverse recovery time. It delivers low forward voltage (0.715 V at 1 mA), low junction capacitance (2 pF), and operates across –55 °C to +150 °C - widely used in high-speed logic clamping, waveform shaping, and digital signal routing on PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4148W-7-F datasheet, 1N4148W-7-F pinout, 1N4148W-7-F application, or 1N4148W-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse recovery speed, forward voltage consistency at low currents, thermal derating behavior, and SOD-123 footprint compatibility with automated assembly lines.
Technical Context
This diode functions as a unidirectional, low-capacitance switching element optimized for digital and high-frequency analog signal paths. Its 4 ns reverse recovery time and 2 pF junction capacitance enable reliable operation in 10–50 MHz clock line clamping and TTL/CMOS input protection circuits.
The device uses a planar epitaxial silicon structure with cathode-band polarity marking and matte tin-plated alloy-42 leads. Thermal resistance is 315 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, FR-4 board, double-sided 3 oz copper), supporting continuous operation up to 150 °C junction temperature under controlled power dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 100 V - supports DC blocking and transient suppression in 24 V and 48 V industrial control signal lines |
| IF | 300 mA - sufficient for driving LED indicators, logic-level translation, and small-signal rectification |
| tRR | 4 ns - enables clean edge transitions in >25 MHz digital switching without tail current distortion |
| CT | 2 pF - minimizes loading on high-impedance RF detector inputs and crystal oscillator feedback paths |
| VF | 0.715 V @ 1 mA - ensures predictable voltage drop in precision bias networks and low-power sensor interface circuits |
| TJ Range | –55 °C to +150 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor drive control boards |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-123 - surface-mount plastic case, 2.65 mm × 1.55 mm × 1.05 mm body, cathode band marking, matte tin-plated alloy-42 leads, JEDEC-compliant moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to lower-potential node in clamping or rectification path; requires thermal relief pad per IPC-7351B |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Marked by band; ties to higher-potential rail or logic input; critical for ESD protection orientation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast reverse recovery | 4 ns maximum - reduces switching loss and prevents false triggering in high-speed data lines |
| Low forward voltage | 0.715 V at 1 mA - improves accuracy in precision reference clamp circuits and low-current biasing |
| Low junction capacitance | 2 pF at 0 V - preserves signal integrity in 50 Ω RF sampling paths and crystal oscillator load networks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast-switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV16W-7-F | Identical electrical specs; same SOD-123 package; BAV16W has marginally tighter VF distribution at 10 mA | No functional difference in clamping or routing; identical thermal profile and layout | Select when sourcing flexibility or dual-source qualification is required |
| 1N4148WS-7-F | SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.25 mm); 10% smaller footprint; same VRWM, tRR, and CT | Preferred for space-constrained wearables and ultra-thin IoT modules where board area is critical | Choose only if PCB layout accommodates reduced pad pitch and thermal mass |
Compared with BAV16W-7-F and 1N4148WS-7-F, the 1N4148W-7-F offers optimal balance of proven reliability, standard SOD-123 manufacturability, and thermal robustness for mid-density industrial PCBs - making it the default choice unless miniaturization or alternate VF distribution is prioritized.

FAQ
Is 1N4148W-7-F AEC-Q101 qualified?
No - the 1N4148W-7-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified. Only the automotive-grade variant 1N4148WQ-7-F carries AEC-Q101 qualification, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing certification. Standard 1N4148W-7-F is intended for commercial and industrial applications.
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature for SOD-123 reflow?
The SOD-123 package supports standard lead-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020. Peak temperature must not exceed 260 °C for ≤ 30 seconds, with ramp-up rate ≤ 3 °C/s and ramp-down rate ≤ 6 °C/s. Moisture sensitivity level is 1, so baking prior to reflow is not required.
Can 1N4148W-7-F replace 1N4148 through-hole diodes in existing designs?
Yes - electrically identical to legacy 1N4148, but requires PCB redesign for SOD-123 footprint. Key differences: lower thermal resistance (315 °C/W vs ~500 °C/W for DO-35), no axial leads, and automated placement compatibility. Layout must account for reduced thermal mass and different pad geometry.
Does this diode support bidirectional ESD protection?
No - the 1N4148W-7-F is a unidirectional silicon switching diode. It provides effective clamping only in forward conduction or reverse breakdown (above 100 V). For bidirectional ESD protection, dedicated TVS diodes such as D1213A-03LP or PUSB3FR4 are required.
