Nexperia USA Inc. BAS16VY,165

Overview

BAS16VY from Nexperia is a triple high-speed switching diode in SOT363-3 (TSSOP6) package, configured as three independent anode-cathode pairs for parallel or isolated signal routing. It delivers trr ≤ 4 ns reverse recovery time, 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), and 1.5 pF diode capacitance at 0 V, enabling use in 100 MHz+ digital logic clamping and data line protection circuits.

For engineers reviewing the BAS16VY datasheet, BAS16VY pinout, BAS16VY application, or BAS16VY equivalent, key selection criteria include verified trr ≤ 4 ns at IF = 10 mA/IR = 10 mA, low-leakage IR ≤ 0.5 µA at VR = 80 V, and thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 260 K/W with solder points at pins 4–6 - critical for compact PCB layouts requiring fast transient response and thermal reliability.

Technical Context

The BAS16VY integrates three monolithic silicon switching diodes in a single 6-pin TSSOP package, each rated for 100 V VRRM and 200 mA continuous forward current. Its trr ≤ 4 ns is measured under standardized conditions (IF = 10 mA, IR = 10 mA, RL = 100 Ω, IR(meas) = 1 mA, Tamb = 25 °C), confirming suitability for high-frequency pulse shaping and edge-rate control.

Thermal design relies on junction-to-solder-point resistance of 260 K/W, defined with soldering points at pins 4, 5, and 6, and power dissipation limited to 250 mW at Tsp ≤ 85 °C on FR4 PCB with single-sided copper. Reverse leakage remains ≤ 50 µA at VR = 80 V and Tj = 150 °C, supporting stable operation across industrial temperature ranges.

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

Package: SOT363-3 (TSSOP6), 6-lead surface-mount plastic package with 0.65 mm pitch, 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm body size, and exposed solder points at pins 4, 5, and 6 per thermal specification.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed switching diode applications.

Compared with NSR0230HT1G and BAV99W-7-F, the BAS16VY uniquely balances 100 V VRRM, 855 mV VF at 10 mA, and triple-diode integration in a thermally optimized SOT363-3 package - making it optimal for space-constrained, multi-channel high-speed clamping where voltage margin and thermal management are co-critical.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous forward current per diode in the BAS16VY?

The maximum continuous forward current per diode is 200 mA, specified at Tsp ≤ 85 °C on FR4 PCB with single-sided copper and standard footprint. This rating assumes only one diode is conducting at a time; simultaneous conduction across all three diodes requires derating based on total power dissipation (250 mW) and thermal resistance (260 K/W).

Can the BAS16VY be used in automotive applications?

The BAS16VY is not automotive-qualified per Nexperia's legal disclaimers and lacks AEC-Q101 certification. While its 150 °C junction temperature rating supports under-hood ambient conditions, it has not undergone automotive-specific stress testing, qualification, or failure analysis - therefore it is intended for industrial and commercial applications only.

How is thermal performance validated for the BAS16VY?

Thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 260 K/W is measured with soldering points strictly at pins 4, 5, and 6 on FR4 PCB, single-sided copper, tin-plated, and standard footprint. The value is not valid if soldered only at pins 1–3 or using non-standard land patterns - thermal simulation must replicate this exact mounting condition.

Does the BAS16VY support bidirectional ESD protection?

No - the BAS16VY is a unidirectional switching diode array with anodes on pins 1–3 and cathodes on pins 4–6. For bidirectional ESD protection, external series resistors and TVS diodes are required; the device itself conducts only in forward bias and blocks in reverse up to 100 V, not as a symmetrical transient suppressor.
