Product details
Overview
BAS40-04-QR from Nexperia is a general-purpose dual Schottky diode in SOT23 package, configured as two independent diodes with shared cathode/anode terminals (A1–K1 and A2–K2). It delivers 40 V reverse voltage rating, 120 mA forward current capability, 380 mV forward voltage at 1 mA, 5 pF capacitance at 0 V, and is qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive signal clamping and ultra-high-speed switching.
For engineers reviewing the BAS40-04-QR datasheet, BAS40-04-QR pinout, BAS40-04-QR application, or BAS40-04-QR equivalent, key selection criteria include low VF for power-sensitive logic interfaces, low Cd for RF/switching node integrity, AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood use, and dual-diode topology enabling compact bidirectional protection or level-shifting circuits.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky diode integrates two independent junctions in a single SOT23-3 package with cross-coupled pinning: Pin 1 = A1 (anode of D1), Pin 2 = K2 (cathode of D2), Pin 3 = K1/A2 (shared cathode of D1 and anode of D2). Its architecture supports series-connected or back-to-back configurations without external routing.
Designed for high-speed operation, it exhibits 1 µA reverse leakage at 30 V and 10 µA at 40 V, 500 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4, and maintains stable VF across -40 °C to 125 °C ambient - critical for automotive transceiver I/O protection and clock line clamping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 40 V - supports 3.3 V/5 V/12 V rail clamping without breakdown in automotive CAN/LIN or sensor interface lines |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 380 mV @ 1 mA - minimizes voltage drop in low-current bias networks and logic-level translation paths |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 µA @ 30 V - ensures negligible standby current in always-on automotive modules |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 5 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - preserves signal edge integrity up to ~100 MHz in high-speed data lines |
| Forward Current (IF) | 120 mA continuous - handles transient surge currents in ESD protection and power-rail decoupling paths |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C max - enables operation in engine control units and powertrain modules with minimal derating |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD per JESD22-A114 |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 (TO-236AB), 3-terminal surface-mount plastic package; 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm body, 1.9 mm lead pitch; optimized for reflow and wave soldering per IPC-7351B.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode of Diode 1 (A1) | Input terminal for first Schottky path; connects to signal source or higher-potential rail in clamping configuration |
| 2 | Cathode of Diode 2 (K2) | Output terminal for second Schottky path; routes clamped or steered current to reference or ground |
| 3 | Cathode of Diode 1 / Anode of Diode 2 (K1; A2) | Shared node enabling series or anti-parallel connection; used for bidirectional TVS-like behavior or level shifting |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High switching speed | Sub-nanosecond recovery time enabled by low stored charge and Schottky barrier physics - critical for >10 MHz digital signal routing |
| Low leakage current | ≤10 µA at VR = 40 V and 25 °C - preserves battery life in always-on vehicle modules and avoids false triggering in sensing circuits |
| Dual-diode integration | Two independent Schottky junctions in one SOT23 footprint - reduces PCB area by 40% vs. discrete dual-Diode solutions |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Stress-tested for automotive environments including 1000-cycle temperature cycling (-40 °C to +125 °C) and 1000-hour HTRB - meets ASIL-B supporting requirements |
| Low capacitance | 5 pF typical at 0 V reverse bias - limits capacitive loading on high-frequency clocks, USB D+/D−, and LIN bus signals |
Applications
| Automotive Sensor Interface | USB 2.0 Data Line Protection |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting analog outputs of pressure/temperature sensors connected to MCU ADC inputs in engine bay modules. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-diode clamping network limiting input voltage to ±0.3 V beyond supply rails while preserving signal fidelity. Use Value: Prevents ADC saturation and latch-up during load-dump transients (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a), leveraging 40 V VR and 380 mV VF for minimal offset error. |
Use Scenario: Bidirectional ESD and overvoltage protection on USB 2.0 D+ and D− lines in infotainment head units. IC Role / Device Role: Back-to-back Schottky configuration using Pins 1–3 and 2–3 to clamp both positive and negative transients to VDD and GND. Use Value: 5 pF capacitance avoids signal integrity degradation at 480 Mbps; AEC-Q101 qualification ensures compliance with automotive USB reliability standards. |
| LVDS Receiver Input Clamp | Logic-Level Translation |
|
Use Scenario: Guarding LVDS receiver inputs against overshoot/undershoot caused by PCB trace reflections or hot-plug events. IC Role / Device Role: Low-capacitance dual clamp referenced to VCC and GND, placed directly at receiver pins. Use Value: 5 pF Cd prevents rise-time degradation; 120 mA IF rating absorbs short-duration ESD pulses (IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4) without failure. |
Use Scenario: Translating 1.8 V logic signals to 3.3 V domains in ADAS camera modules with strict power budget constraints. IC Role / Device Role: Passive level shifter using forward-biased Schottky diodes with pull-up resistors on the high-voltage side. Use Value: 380 mV VF enables near-zero static offset; dual configuration allows simultaneous translation of complementary signals (e.g., CLK/CLK#). |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSR20F40NXT5G | Same SOT23-3 package; 40 V VR, but VF = 450 mV @ 1 mA and Cd = 8 pF - higher conduction loss and capacitance | Less suitable for <100 MHz signal paths or ultra-low-power bias networks due to higher VF and Cd | Select when legacy ON Semi BOM compatibility is required and 70 mV VF penalty is acceptable |
| Diodes Incorporated BAV99WQ-7-F | 40 V VR, VF = 400 mV @ 1 mA, Cd = 2 pF, but not AEC-Q101 qualified - rated for industrial only | Not approved for automotive under-hood use; requires additional qualification effort for automotive OEM programs | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial IoT gateways where AEC-Q101 is not mandated |
Compared with NSR20F40NXT5G and BAV99WQ-7-F, BAS40-04-QR uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, lowest VF (380 mV), and industry-leading Cd/VF trade-off - making it the default choice for automotive signal integrity-critical designs requiring zero qualification overhead.

FAQ
Is BAS40-04-QR pin-compatible with BAS40-04W?
No. BAS40-04-QR uses SOT23-3 packaging with pinout A1–K2–(K1/A2), whereas BAS40-04W is in SOT323-3 with different pin assignment (A1–K1–A2). Mechanical and electrical pin mapping differs - direct substitution requires PCB redesign and layout verification.
What is the maximum pulsed forward current rating for BAS40-04-QR?
The non-repetitive peak forward current (IFSM) is 200 mA for tp ≤ 10 ms at Tj(init) = 25 °C. This rating applies to short-duration transients such as ESD events or inrush surges, and must be verified against thermal dissipation limits in the target PCB layout.
Can BAS40-04-QR be used in place of a single Schottky diode like BAS40-05?
Yes, but only one diode section should be used - for example, connect Pin 1 (A1) and Pin 3 (K1) as anode/cathode, leaving Pin 2 (K2) unconnected and floating. Unused terminals must be isolated per PCB design rules to avoid parasitic coupling or leakage paths.
Does BAS40-04-QR support reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020?
Yes. The device is qualified for standard SnPb and lead-free reflow profiles. Peak temperature must not exceed 260 °C for ≤30 seconds, with ramp rates within JEDEC J-STD-020 Class 3 limits. Footprint dimensions match IPC-7351B SOT23 generic land pattern.
