Product details
Overview
BAS16T-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a single high-speed switching diode in SOT523 package, rated for 85 V peak reverse voltage, 155 mA forward current, and 4.0 ns reverse recovery time. It delivers low forward voltage (0.855 V at 10 mA) and low leakage (2.0 µA at 75 V), suited for signal routing and clamping in compact consumer and industrial PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the BAS16T-7-F datasheet, BAS16T-7-F pinout, BAS16T-7-F application, or BAS16T-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-fast trr, low-capacitance (0.81 pF), thermal resistance (833 °C/W), and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating on alloy 42 leadframe.
Technical Context
This discrete silicon switching diode operates as a unidirectional signal path element with fast carrier recombination enabling sub-5 ns turn-off. Its low junction capacitance and high conductance support high-frequency signal integrity in digital logic interfaces and analog front-end protection circuits.
The device is characterized under standard JEDEC conditions: TA = +25°C, mounted on FR-4 with specified pad layout, and rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +150°C. Moisture sensitivity is Level 1 per J-STD-020, confirming suitability for standard reflow without baking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 85 V - supports rail-to-rail signal clamping up to 60 V RMS in AC-coupled paths |
| IF | 155 mA - sufficient for logic-level signal steering and low-power bias networks |
| trr | 4.0 ns - enables reliable operation in >100 MHz digital switching and pulse shaping |
| CT | 0.81 pF @ 0 V - minimizes capacitive loading on high-impedance nodes and RF traces |
| RθJA | 833 °C/W - requires minimal copper area for thermal management in space-constrained layouts |
| VF | 0.855 V @ 10 mA - reduces power loss and self-heating in battery-powered signal conditioning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4148W-7-F | Same SOT-323 package; 100 V VRRM, 4 ns trr, but 1.5 pF CT - 85% higher capacitance | Less suitable for >50 MHz signal paths due to increased capacitive loading | Select when higher reverse voltage margin is prioritized over RF performance |
| MMBD7000LT1G | SOT-23 package; 70 V VRRM, 4 ns trr, 2.0 pF CT, 200 mA IF | Larger footprint limits use in ultra-dense mobile PCBs; higher leakage (10 nA @ 25 V) | Prefer where board space allows and higher forward current capability is required |
Compared with 1N4148W-7-F and MMBD7000LT1G, BAS16T-7-F offers the lowest capacitance (0.81 pF) in the smallest footprint (SOT523), making it optimal for miniaturized high-frequency signal routing where parasitic loading must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for BAS16T-7-F?
The BAS16T-7-F is rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +150°C junction temperature. Its thermal resistance (RθJA = 833 °C/W) means that at 155 mA forward current and 0.855 V drop, power dissipation remains below 133 mW - well within the 150 mW absolute maximum rating when mounted per recommended FR-4 pad layout.
Is BAS16T-7-F suitable for automotive applications?
No - BAS16T-7-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While it shares the same SOT523 package and basic construction as the AEC-Q101–qualified BAV99TQ, Diodes' official documentation confirms only BAV99TQ (and variants with "Q" suffix) meet automotive change control, PPAP, and IATF16949 requirements.
How does BAS16T-7-F differ from BAW56T-7-F?
BAS16T-7-F is a single diode; BAW56T-7-F contains two independent diodes in the same SOT523 package. Both share identical electrical specs (VRRM, trr, CT), but BAW56T's dual configuration supports matched-pair functions like differential clamping or bridge rectification in half-size footprint.
What is the marking code for BAS16T-7-F on the package?
The top-side marking for BAS16T-7-F is "A2", followed by a two-character date code (e.g., "K9" for September 2023). This marking is laser-etched on the molded plastic body and aligns with Diodes' standardized SOT523 identification scheme per DS30260 Rev. 13-2.
