Product details
Overview
BAS16VA-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual-channel surface-mount switching diode array in SOT563 package, rated for 100 V peak reverse voltage, 200 mA forward current, and featuring 4 ns reverse recovery time, 1.5 pF capacitance, and 0.715 V forward voltage at 1 mA - used in high-speed signal routing and voltage clamping in portable power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BAS16VA-7 datasheet, BAS16VA-7 pinout, BAS16VA-7 application, or BAS16VA-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include fast switching performance under low-voltage bias, thermal efficiency in ultra-compact layouts, leakage behavior at elevated temperature (≤50 µA at 80 V, 125°C), and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on FR-4 PCBs with minimum copper pad design.
Technical Context
This dual-diode array integrates two independent, matched silicon switching diodes on a thermally efficient copper alloy leadframe. Each diode exhibits low forward voltage drop and tightly controlled reverse recovery characteristics, enabling precise timing control in sample-and-hold and logic-level translation circuits.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C and maintains stable leakage (<30 nA at 25 V, 25°C) and capacitance (≤1.5 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz), making it suitable for RF detector front-ends and ESD-protected I/O interface stages where parasitic capacitance and DC leakage must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Reverse Voltage | 100 V - supports clamping and protection in 48 V and 36 V automotive subsystems without breakdown |
| Forward Voltage | 0.715 V @ 1 mA - enables low-loss signal steering in battery-powered sensor nodes |
| Reverse Recovery Time | 4.0 ns - ensures minimal switching distortion in >100 MHz digital signal paths |
| Total Capacitance | 1.5 pF @ 0 V - preserves signal integrity in RF front-end matching networks |
| Leakage Current | 0.5 µA @ 80 V, 25°C - maintains accuracy in high-impedance analog sampling circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 350 mW @ 25°C - allows operation up to 125°C ambient with derating per Fig. 1 |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT563 - ultra-small 6-pin surface-mount package with exposed copper leadframe for enhanced thermal conduction; dimensions: 1.60 × 1.60 × 0.60 mm (L × W × H); moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual switching diode array applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV99-7-F | Higher VF (1.25 V @ 150 mA), same SOT563 package, 4 ns trr, but 2.0 pF CT | Less suitable for RF-sensitive applications due to higher capacitance and forward drop | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs RF performance and low-VF requirements |
| MMBD1204-7-F | Lower VR (80 V), 3.5 ns trr, 1.2 pF CT, same footprint, but not AEC-Q qualified | Not recommended for automotive environments requiring AEC-Q101 stress validation | Select only for industrial or consumer applications where 100 V rating is noncritical |
Compared with BAV99-7-F and MMBD1204-7-F, the BAS16VA-7 delivers superior combination of low capacitance, low forward voltage, and full automotive-grade qualification - making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding, and safety-relevant signal routing tasks.

FAQ
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for BAS16VA-7?
The exposed thermal pad (Pin 6) must be soldered to a dedicated copper pour on the PCB to achieve the specified RθJA of 357°C/W. Leaving it unconnected degrades thermal performance by >40%, risking premature failure above 125°C ambient. Minimum recommended pad size is 2.0 mm × 2.0 mm with ≥4 thermal vias to inner ground plane.
Does BAS16VA-7 meet AEC-Q101 requirements?
Yes - BAS16VA-7 is qualified to AEC-Q101 Rev D for stress testing including HTSL, TCT, AC, and ESD. It is manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities and supports PPAP documentation. Full qualification report DS40600 Rev. 3 confirms compliance for automotive body electronics and infotainment I/O protection.
Can BAS16VA-7 replace single-diode SOT23 packages in existing designs?
No - BAS16VA-7 uses SOT563 (6-pin), not SOT23 (3-pin). Its dual-diode structure with independent anodes and cathodes requires PCB layout revision. Direct replacement is only feasible if the original design already uses SOT563 dual-diode footprints and leverages both channels.
How does leakage current change at elevated temperature?
At 125°C and 80 V reverse bias, leakage rises to ≤50 µA - a 100× increase over 25°C (0.5 µA), but remains within specification. This behavior is verified per Note 6 in DS40600 and aligns with typical silicon diode Arrhenius drift; design margin should account for this in high-temp sensor bias networks.
