Product details
Overview
BAS40H-Q from Nexperia is a general-purpose Schottky diode in SOD123F package, designed for ultra-high-speed switching and voltage clamping in automotive-grade circuits. 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 AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BAS40H-Q datasheet, BAS40H-Q pinout, BAS40H-Q application, or BAS40H-Q equivalent, key selection criteria include low VF at low IF, sub-1 µA IR at 30 V, thermal resistance of 330 K/W on FR4, and compatibility with reflow soldering per SOD123F footprint.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode uses a planar epitaxial construction to achieve fast recovery (no minority-carrier storage), enabling operation up to 1 GHz small-signal frequencies. Its low junction capacitance (5 pF) and differential resistance <1 Ω at 10 mA support high-frequency signal routing and RF decoupling.
The device operates across –65 °C to +150 °C ambient and junction temperature ranges, with thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient measured at 330 K/W on single-sided tin-plated FR4 PCB - critical for thermally constrained automotive modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 40 V - supports 24 V automotive systems with 2× safety margin against load-dump transients |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 380 mV @ 1 mA - minimizes conduction loss in low-current bias and sensing paths |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 1 µA @ 30 V - ensures low leakage in high-impedance clamp and hold circuits |
| Capacitance (Cd) | 5 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - enables clean signal integrity in >100 MHz clock or data line clamping |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 330 K/W - defines power derating to ≤360 mW at Tamb = 85 °C on standard FR4 layout |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C maximum - allows sustained operation in engine control unit (ECU) and body controller environments |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F surface-mount plastic package: 2.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm body, flat lead profile optimized for automated placement and reflow reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (marked side) | Cathode (K) | Marking bar identifies cathode; connects to lower-potential node in clamping or rectification path |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Unmarked terminal; connects to higher-potential source in forward-biased operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Low forward voltage | 380 mV at 1 mA enables efficient biasing in low-power microcontroller I/O protection networks |
| High-speed switching | No minority-carrier storage enables sub-nanosecond recovery - suitable for >500 MHz RF envelope detection |
| Low leakage current | ≤10 µA at 40 V reverse bias maintains accuracy in precision voltage reference and sample-hold circuits |
| Small SMD footprint | SOD123F package reduces board area by 40% vs. SOD323 while maintaining thermal robustness |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSR0230HT1G | 30 V VR, 200 mA IF, VF = 450 mV @ 1 mA, SOD-123 package | Limited to 12 V systems; higher VF increases bias loss in low-power sensors | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 40 V margin and leakage requirements |
| Vishay VS-2EDH01-M3/84A | 45 V VR, 200 mA IF, VF = 490 mV @ 1 mA, SOD-123 package, no AEC-Q101 | Not automotive-qualified; higher VF degrades efficiency in battery-powered modules | Prefer for industrial non-automotive designs requiring extended VR margin without qualification overhead |
Compared with NSR0230HT1G and VS-2EDH01-M3/84A, BAS40H-Q uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, 40 V VR, and 380 mV VF - making it optimal for automotive power rail clamping where both transient margin and low-loss biasing are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 150 °C. For continuous operation, the device must be operated within its thermal limits: at Tamb = 85 °C, power dissipation must not exceed 360 mW (calculated from Rth(j-a) = 330 K/W). Derating curves in Figure 1 of the datasheet define safe operating area across temperature.
Is BAS40H-Q compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes - BAS40H-Q is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C. The recommended solder land pattern (Figure 6) and thermal profile ensure reliable joint formation without delamination or package cracking on SOD123F footprint.
How does the marking "AJ" correspond to the part number?
The marking "AJ" is the top-side laser-marked code for BAS40H-Q, as specified in Table 4 of the datasheet. It appears adjacent to the cathode bar on the SOD123F package body and is used for visual identification and traceability during assembly and inspection.
Can BAS40H-Q replace BAS40-04 in existing designs?
No - BAS40-04 is a dual-diode SOT-23 package with common-cathode configuration, while BAS40H-Q is a single-diode SOD123F device. Pin count, package dimensions, and electrical configuration differ fundamentally; redesign of layout and schematic is required for substitution.
