Product details
Overview
1N4448WSFQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade, surface-mount fast-switching silicon switching diode in SOD323F package, rated for 75 V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 500 mA forward current, and 4.0 ns reverse recovery time, used in high-frequency signal clamping and waveform shaping circuits in engine control units and ADAS sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4448WSFQ-7 datasheet, 1N4448WSFQ-7 pinout, 1N4448WSFQ-7 application, or 1N4448WSFQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include trr ≤ 4.0 ns, IR ≤ 25 nA at VR = 20 V, CT ≤ 4.0 pF at f = 1 MHz, AEC-Q101 qualification, and SOD323F thermal performance with RθJA = 313 °C/W on FR-4.
Technical Context
This diode operates as a unidirectional, low-capacitance, fast-recovery rectifier optimized for high-speed digital and analog signal routing. Its 4.0 ns trr enables clean edge transitions in 10–50 MHz clock distribution and data line protection, while its 25 nA leakage at 20 V supports precision bias networks in automotive sensor front-ends.
The SOD323F package features flat leads for enhanced thermal conduction and a cathode band marking for unambiguous polarity identification. It is qualified to AEC-Q101 with operating temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C and moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | ≤ 4.0 ns - Enables reliable operation in >20 MHz switching applications without tail current distortion |
| Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage (VRRM) | 75 V - Supports 24 V automotive supply rail transients with 3× safety margin |
| Forward Current (IFM) | 500 mA - Handles pulsed logic-level clamp currents in CAN/LIN bus interface protection |
| Leakage Current (IR) | ≤ 25 nA at VR = 20 V - Maintains signal integrity in high-impedance bias and reference paths |
| Total Capacitance (CT) | ≤ 4.0 pF at VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - Minimizes loading on RF-sensitive timing and oscillator nodes |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 313 °C/W - Requires minimal PCB copper area for thermal management in space-constrained modules |
| AEC-Q101 Qualification | Qualified - Meets stress test requirements for automotive electronics including temperature cycling and HTRB |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast-switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAT54CQ-7-F | Schottky architecture; VF ≈ 0.33 V @ 10 mA; trr not specified (inherently faster); VRRM = 30 V | Limited to ≤30 V systems; unsuitable for 75 V transients in 24 V automotive rails | Select only where low forward drop outweighs reverse voltage requirement and trr is secondary |
| 1N4148WQ-7-F | Same silicon process but commercial grade; VRRM = 100 V; trr ≤ 4.0 ns; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Not approved for automotive production; may require additional qualification testing for ECU use | Acceptable for prototyping or non-safety-critical interior modules with internal validation |
Compared with BAT54CQ-7-F and 1N4148WQ-7-F, the 1N4448WSFQ-7 uniquely combines 75 V VRRM, 4.0 ns trr, and AEC-Q101 qualification-making it the only drop-in solution for production automotive signal conditioning where both transient robustness and high-speed fidelity are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The 1N4448WSFQ-7 has a maximum junction temperature of +150 °C and minimum storage temperature of −65 °C. Derating begins above +25 °C ambient, with full 400 mW power dissipation only at TA ≤ 25 °C; at +85 °C ambient, allowable power drops to approximately 200 mW per the forward current derating curve.
Is the SOD323F package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the SOD323F package is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak temperature ≤ 260 °C). Its flat-lead construction ensures uniform thermal transfer and minimizes tombstoning risk on fine-pitch PCB layouts.
How does the 1N4448WSFQ-7 differ from the commercial 1N4448WSF-7?
The 1N4448WSFQ-7 adds AEC-Q101 qualification-including extended temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and accelerated life testing-while sharing identical electrical specs and SOD323F packaging with the commercial 1N4448WSF-7. The "Q" suffix denotes automotive-grade screening and traceability.
Can this diode be used in place of a 1N4148 in automotive designs?
No-although electrically similar, the 1N4148 lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and has different thermal resistance and leakage behavior at elevated temperatures. The 1N4448WSFQ-7 is specifically characterized and screened for automotive use, including 150 °C operation and humidity exposure testing required for under-hood deployment.
