Product details
Overview
BAS21AVD-Q from Nexperia is a triple high-voltage switching diode array in SOT457 (TSOP6) package, designed for automotive and communication circuit protection and signal routing. It delivers 250 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), ≤50 ns reverse recovery time (trr), and ≤5 pF junction capacitance per diode - enabling fast, low-distortion switching in compact surface-mounted designs.
For engineers reviewing the BAS21AVD-Q datasheet, BAS21AVD-Q pinout, BAS21AVD-Q application, or BAS21AVD-Q equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q101 qualification, triple-diode integration in one TSOP6 footprint, and verified performance at 200 V reverse bias with <100 nA leakage at 25 °C.
Technical Context
This triple diode array integrates three independent high-voltage switching diodes sharing no internal connection - each rated for 250 V VRRM, 1 A IFRM, and 16 ns typical trr. Its low 0.6–5 pF capacitance and 1 V forward voltage at 100 mA support high-frequency signal integrity in automotive infotainment and telecom front-end stages.
The device operates across −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, with thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 500 K/W on FR4 PCB and Rth(j-sp) = 140 K/W to solder point - confirming suitability for thermally constrained automotive modules where localized heat dissipation matters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 250 V - supports sustained operation in 24 V/48 V automotive power domains with margin against transients. |
| trr | 16–50 ns - enables >10 MHz switching in snubberless flyback or clamp circuits without excessive switching loss. |
| Cd | 0.6–5 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - minimizes signal loading in RF coupling or ESD protection paths up to 1 GHz. |
| IF | 200 mA continuous pulsed - sufficient for logic-level clamping, level shifting, and low-power signal steering. |
| IR | 25–100 nA @ 200 V, 25 °C - ensures negligible standby current in always-on automotive subsystems. |
| Ptot | 295 mW @ Tamb ≤ 25 °C - defines maximum dissipation before thermal derating begins on standard FR4. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in SOT457 (TSOP6) - a 6-lead, 3.0 × 1.7 mm surface-mount plastic package with 0.65 mm lead pitch and exposed cathode thermal pad compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A1 | Anode of Diode 1 - connects to input/source side in unidirectional clamping or polarity protection. |
| 2 | A2 | Anode of Diode 2 - electrically isolated; used for dual-rail clamping or redundant signal path routing. |
| 3 | A3 | Anode of Diode 3 - enables triple-channel protection without discrete part count increase. |
| 4 | K3 | Cathode of Diode 3 - shared reference node for common-cathode configuration; ties to ground or rail. |
| 5 | K2 | Cathode of Diode 2 - allows independent cathode routing for split-rail or differential applications. |
| 6 | K1 | Cathode of Diode 1 - completes first diode path; layout symmetry aids EMI control in high-speed traces. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive underhood and cabin modules - eliminates need for additional qualification testing. |
| Triple diode integration | Reduces PCB area by ~60% vs. three discrete SOD-323 diodes while maintaining isolation between channels. |
| Low 16 ns typical trr | Enables clean edge transitions in 5–20 MHz clock distribution or data line clamping without overshoot. |
| 0.6 pF typical Cd | Preserves signal rise/fall times in USB 2.0 or CAN FD data lines routed near protection elements. |
| 250 mW per diode Ptot | Supports sustained 100 mA forward conduction at 85 °C ambient without thermal shutdown in sealed enclosures. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage switching diode array applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSR20F20NXT5G | Single diode, 200 V VRRM, 20 ns trr, SOD-523 package - lacks triple integration and AEC-Q101 rating. | Requires three devices and extra PCB area; suitable only for non-automotive, space-constrained consumer designs. | Select when board real estate is critical but triple-diode functionality and automotive qualification are unnecessary. |
| Vishay VS-3EDH02-M3/86A | Triple diode, 200 V VRRM, 75 ns trr, SOT-23-6 package - higher capacitance (10 pF), no AEC-Q101 certification. | Acceptable for industrial control but not qualified for automotive use; slower recovery increases switching loss above 5 MHz. | Choose only if cost is primary constraint and thermal/EMI requirements are relaxed relative to BAS21AVD-Q. |
Compared with NSR20F20NXT5G and VS-3EDH02-M3/86A, BAS21AVD-Q uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 250 V VRRM, sub-50 ns trr, and triple-diode integration in TSOP6 - making it the only option validated for safety-critical automotive signal routing with minimal footprint overhead.

FAQ
Is BAS21AVD-Q pin-compatible with BAS21DW?
No. BAS21AVD-Q uses TSOP6 (SOT457) with pinout A1-A2-A3-K3-K2-K1, while BAS21DW uses SOT363 (SC-88) with different pin assignment and thermal characteristics. Layout redesign and thermal validation are required for substitution.
What is the maximum ambient temperature for continuous 200 mA operation?
At 200 mA pulsed (tp ≤ 300 µs, δ ≤ 0.02), the device sustains operation up to 85 °C ambient on standard FR4 PCB. Derating begins above this point - full 200 mA DC operation requires active cooling or reduced ambient per Figure 6 in the datasheet.
Does BAS21AVD-Q support bidirectional ESD protection?
No. It is a unidirectional switching diode array optimized for forward conduction and reverse blocking. For bidirectional ESD clamping, external TVS diodes or dedicated ESD arrays like PESD5V0S1BA must be used in conjunction.
Can BAS21AVD-Q replace BAT54S in automotive applications?
Not directly. BAT54S has lower VRRM (30 V), higher capacitance (~10 pF), and no AEC-Q101 qualification. BAS21AVD-Q offers 8× higher reverse voltage and automotive qualification but requires revalidation of timing and leakage in existing BAT54S designs.
