Product details
Overview
BAS21Q-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101 qualified surface-mount fast switching diode in SOT23 package, rated for 250 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 400 mA forward continuous current, and 50 ns reverse recovery time. It delivers high conductance and low leakage (15 µA at +100°C), supporting automotive signal routing, ESD protection clamping, and high-speed logic interface isolation.
For engineers reviewing the BAS21Q-7-F datasheet, BAS21Q-7-F pinout, BAS21Q-7-F application, or BAS21Q-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its 250 V VRRM, 50 ns trr, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT23 thermal resistance (500 °C/W), and automotive PPAP capability - critical for under-hood sensor interfaces and power management subsystems.
Technical Context
The BAS21Q-7-F is a silicon planar epitaxial fast-switching diode optimized for high-speed transient response and stable reverse blocking. Its 50 ns reverse recovery time and 5.0 pF junction capacitance at 0 V enable clean signal edge preservation in digital timing paths and clamp circuits.
Designed for automotive-grade reliability, it operates across –55 °C to +150 °C with full IATF 16949 manufacturing control, AEC-Q101 stress testing, and halogen/antimony-free "Green" construction meeting RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 250 V - supports 200 V DC blocking in automotive 12 V/24 V systems with margin for load dump transients |
| trr | 50 ns - enables reliable operation in >1 MHz switching applications such as PWM signal conditioning |
| IF | 400 mA continuous - sufficient for logic-level signal steering and low-power rail clamping |
| IR @ +100°C | 15 µA - ensures minimal leakage-induced offset in precision sensor front-ends |
| CT @ 0 V | 5.0 pF - maintains signal integrity in high-frequency data lines (e.g., CAN FD stubs, LIN bus) |
| PD | 250 mW - defines maximum dissipation on standard FR-4 with 2 oz copper pad; derates linearly above +25°C |
| RθJA | 500 °C/W - establishes thermal limit for ambient-referenced power handling in confined PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - surface-mount plastic package (UL 94V-0), 0.008 g mass, moisture sensitivity level 1, lead-free matte tin plating over Alloy 42 leadframe.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Forward current entry point | Connected to higher-potential node during conduction; polarity-marked on top surface per internal schematic |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Internally tied to package tab; serves as primary reference for clamping and ESD return path |
| No-Connect (Pin 3) | Non-functional lead | Structural support only; electrically isolated and must not be bonded or routed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use with temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per JESD47 |
| Fast 50 ns recovery | Minimizes switching loss and cross-conduction risk in bidirectional signal paths |
| Low 15 µA IR at +100°C | Preserves accuracy in thermally stressed analog monitoring circuits (e.g., battery voltage sensing) |
| SOT23 footprint compatibility | Enables drop-in replacement of BAS19/BAS20 series without PCB redesign |
| Halogen- and antimony-free | Meets automotive OEM green material requirements (<900 ppm Br, <900 ppm Cl, <1000 ppm Sb) |
Applications
| Automotive Sensor Signal Conditioning | Industrial Digital I/O Protection |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast clamping diode placed between sensor output and microcontroller ADC input. Use Value: 250 V VRRM withstands ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a transients; 50 ns trr prevents signal distortion during rapid voltage excursions. | Use Scenario: Isolating PLC digital input channels from field-side surge and ESD events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional transient voltage suppressor in series with optocoupler input LED. Use Value: Low 5.0 pF capacitance avoids signal rise-time degradation on 100 kHz–1 MHz industrial comms lines. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAS21-7-F | Same electrical specs but not AEC-Q101 qualified; no PPAP or IATF 16949 traceability | Restricted to commercial/industrial use; unsuitable for automotive production | Select when automotive qualification is unnecessary and cost is prioritized |
| MMBD2102-7-F | Higher VRRM (350 V), slower trr (100 ns), same SOT23 package and RoHS/Green compliance | Better for 48 V systems with lower speed requirements; less suitable for high-frequency signal paths | Choose for enhanced voltage margin where recovery speed is secondary |
Compared with BAS21-7-F, the BAS21Q-7-F adds automotive qualification without sacrificing speed or leakage; versus MMBD2102-7-F, it trades 100 V headroom for 2× faster recovery - making it optimal for 12/24 V automotive signal integrity where timing fidelity matters.

FAQ
Is BAS21Q-7-F pin-compatible with BAS20Q-7-F and BAS19Q-7-F?
Yes - all three share identical SOT23 pinout (Anode–Cathode–NC) and mechanical dimensions. Electrical differences lie solely in voltage ratings: BAS19Q-7-F (120 V VRRM), BAS20Q-7-F (200 V), and BAS21Q-7-F (250 V). No PCB layout change is needed for voltage-tier upgrades.
What is the maximum operating temperature for sustained 400 mA forward current?
At 400 mA, junction temperature must remain ≤ +150 °C. With RθJA = 500 °C/W and PD = IF × VF ≈ 0.4 A × 1.25 V = 500 mW, ambient must be ≤ +25°C for safe operation. Derating is required above that - e.g., max IF drops to ~200 mA at +85°C ambient.
Does BAS21Q-7-F require special handling for moisture sensitivity?
No - it is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤ 30°C/60% RH without baking prior to reflow. Standard SMT assembly processes apply without preconditioning.
Can BAS21Q-7-F be used in place of a Zener diode for voltage clamping?
No - it is a standard PN junction switching diode, not a Zener. Its reverse breakdown is non-regulated (250 V min, uncontrolled slope), making it unsuitable for precision voltage reference or shunt regulation. Use only for transient suppression or polarity protection where controlled clamping is not required.
