Product details
Overview
BAS70-05 from Nexperia is a dual-channel Schottky diode in SOT23 package, configured with two anodes (A1, A2) and a shared cathode (K1/K2), rated for 70 V reverse voltage, 70 mA forward current, and 410 mV forward voltage at 1 mA - used for ultra-high-speed switching and voltage clamping in signal path protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BAS70-05 datasheet, BAS70-05 pinout, BAS70-05 application, or BAS70-05 equivalent, key selection criteria include common-cathode dual-diode topology, low 2 pF capacitance at 0 V, sub-1 µs switching speed, thermal resistance of 500 K/W, and compatibility with reflow/wave soldering footprints per JEDEC MO-203.
Technical Context
The BAS70-05 integrates two independent Schottky junctions sharing a single cathode terminal, enabling compact dual-clamp or dual-steering functionality without inter-die coupling. Its low 410 mV VF at 1 mA and 100 nA IR at 50 V support low-loss signal routing in high-frequency analog and digital I/O protection.
Thermal design relies on its 500 K/W junction-to-ambient resistance under standard FR4 mounting, and its 150 °C maximum junction temperature allows operation in industrial ambient environments up to 125 °C with derating. The device is non-automotive qualified per revision history v.11 (Jan 2023).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 70 V - supports clamping of transient spikes up to ±70 V without breakdown. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 410 mV @ 1 mA - enables low-voltage-drop steering in 3.3 V/5 V logic interfaces. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 100 nA @ 50 V - ensures minimal leakage in high-impedance bias networks. |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 2 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - preserves signal integrity in >100 MHz RF and data-line applications. |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 500 K/W - defines power dissipation limit of ~150 mW in free-air FR4 layout. |
| Peak Forward Current (IFSM) | 100 mA @ 10 ms - withstands short-duration ESD or surge events per IEC 61000-4-2. |
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, standardized footprint per Fig. 6 (reflow) and Fig. 7 (wave) in datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode of Diode 1 (A1) | Input node for first Schottky path; connects to protected signal line or supply rail. |
| 2 | Anode of Diode 2 (A2) | Independent input node for second Schottky path; enables dual-rail clamping. |
| 3 | Common Cathode (K1/K2) | Shared output node tied to reference (e.g., VCC or GND); defines clamp threshold direction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High switching speed | Sub-microsecond recovery enables use in >100 MHz clock/data line protection. |
| Low leakage current | 100 nA max at 50 V ensures minimal loading on high-Z sensor or reference nodes. |
| Low forward voltage | 410 mV typ at 1 mA reduces conduction loss in low-voltage I/O clamping. |
| Low capacitance | 2 pF typ at 0 V preserves bandwidth in RF front-end and high-speed serial links. |
Applications
| USB 2.0 Data Line Protection | LVDS Receiver Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting D+ and D− lines against ESD and overvoltage transients in USB 2.0 host/device ports. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual Schottky clamp referenced to VBUS or GND, leveraging shared cathode for symmetrical bidirectional clamping. Use Value: 2 pF capacitance avoids signal integrity degradation at 480 Mbps; 70 V VR withstands IEC 61000-4-2 ±15 kV contact discharge. |
Use Scenario: Preventing receiver input damage from overshoot/undershoot during LVDS differential switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-anode clamp to common cathode tied to termination voltage (e.g., 1.2 V), limiting swing beyond valid common-mode range. Use Value: 410 mV VF enables precise clamping near rail without forward conduction in normal operation; low IR avoids DC offset error. |
| Microcontroller GPIO Protection | RF Signal Path Isolation |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding 3.3 V microcontroller pins exposed to external connectors or sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-diode clamp from each GPIO to VDD and GND using shared-cathode configuration for compact board layout. Use Value: SOT23 footprint saves space vs. discrete diodes; 100 mA IFSM handles typical connector hot-plug surges. |
Use Scenario: DC blocking and transient suppression in 2.4 GHz ISM band antenna switch paths. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance Schottky pair used as RF limiter between PA and antenna switch, with cathode grounded. Use Value: 2 pF Cd minimizes insertion loss at 2.4 GHz; 70 V VR accommodates PA output transients without breakdown. |
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 NSR20F70HT1G | Higher IF = 200 mA, VF = 450 mV @ 1 mA, same SOT23-3 package, but separate cathodes (not common-cathode). | Requires two separate cathode traces; unsuitable for shared-reference clamping topologies. | Select only when independent cathode routing is acceptable and higher surge rating is required. |
| Diodes Inc. BAV99,215 | Same common-cathode SOT23-3 pinout, but higher VF = 1.25 V @ 10 mA and higher Cd = 2.5 pF @ 0 V. | Less suitable for low-voltage or high-frequency applications due to higher conduction loss and capacitance. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive 5 V systems where 1.25 V VF and 2.5 pF Cd are tolerable. |
Compared with NSR20F70HT1G and BAV99,215, the BAS70-05 uniquely balances ultra-low capacitance (2 pF), low VF (410 mV), and true common-cathode topology - making it optimal for compact, high-speed dual-rail clamping where layout area and signal fidelity are critical.

FAQ
Is the BAS70-05 automotive-qualified?
No. Per revision history v.11 (January 2023), the BAS70-05 is explicitly designated as non-automotive qualified. It has not undergone AEC-Q101 stress testing or automotive-grade qualification. For automotive use, Nexperia offers the -Q qualified variants such as BAS70-05-Q, which must be specified separately.
What is the correct PCB footprint for BAS70-05?
The official reflow soldering footprint is defined in Figure 6 of the datasheet: three 0.6 mm × 0.5 mm solder lands spaced 1.9 mm apart, with 0.7 mm solder paste stencil openings. Wave soldering uses the footprint in Figure 7, with 1.4 mm × 2.2 mm pads and specific transport-direction orientation.
Can BAS70-05 be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
Yes - when the common cathode (Pin 3) is tied to VCC, the dual anodes (Pins 1 and 2) clamp negative transients to VCC and positive transients to GND via external series resistors and pull-downs. This configuration enables effective bidirectional I/O protection in 3.3 V systems with proper external biasing.
How does thermal performance change with PCB copper area?
Rth(j-a) is specified as 500 K/W on a single-sided FR4 board with standard footprint. Adding internal or external copper planes - especially a 10 mm² thermal pad connected to Pin 3 - can reduce Rth(j-a) by 30–50%, enabling sustained 70 mA operation at ambient temperatures up to 85 °C without exceeding 150 °C Tj.
