Product details
Overview
BAS70JFILM from STMicroelectronics is a 70 V, 70 mA low-capacitance Schottky diode in SOD-323 package, optimized for RF signal detection and temperature compensation with 2 pF capacitance, 30 Ω differential forward resistance at 100 MHz, and 1.5 nH series inductance.
For engineers reviewing the BAS70JFILM datasheet, BAS70JFILM pinout, BAS70JFILM application, or BAS70JFILM equivalent, this device is selected for high-frequency detector circuits, ESD-sensitive RF front-ends, and precision bias networks where low parasitic C/L/R and fast recovery are critical.
Technical Context
The BAS70JFILM implements a planar Schottky barrier structure enabling negligible reverse recovery time and sub-100 ns forward recovery-key for RF envelope detection and mixer local oscillator coupling. Its 2 pF junction capacitance at 0 V and 1.5 nH series inductance minimize signal distortion up to 1 GHz.
Thermal design is supported by a 550 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on epoxy PCBs with recommended SOD-323 pad layout, and operation is rated from –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, making it suitable for compact RF modules under thermal stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 70 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets safe operating margin in 48 V RF bias rails. |
| IF (continuous) | 70 mA - Continuous forward current rating; supports detector diode operation without thermal runaway in low-power RF stages. |
| C (max) | 2 pF at VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - Low junction capacitance preserves impedance matching and bandwidth in 50 Ω RF paths. |
| VF @ 10 mA | 750 mV at Tj = 25 °C - Low forward drop enables efficient signal rectification with minimal DC offset error in precision detectors. |
| RF @ 100 MHz | 30 Ω - Differential forward resistance at RF frequency; determines insertion loss and mismatch in high-frequency switching applications. |
| LS | 1.5 nH - Series inductance limits self-resonant frequency; ensures stable performance below 1.3 GHz (fSR ≈ 1/(2π√(LC))). |
| IR @ 70 V | 10 µA at Tj = 25 °C - Low leakage maintains accuracy in high-impedance bias networks and temperature-compensated reference circuits. |
Pinout & Package
SOD-323 surface-mount package: 1.17 mm × 1.52 mm footprint, 0.25–0.44 mm lead width, 0.1–0.46 mm lead length, 2.3–2.7 mm height; RoHS-compliant, ECOPACK® grade, tape-and-reel packaging (3000 pcs/reel).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to RF input or bias source; low series resistance minimizes voltage drop during conduction. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Grounded or tied to reference node; low capacitance prevents RF shunting and preserves Q-factor in tuned circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low conduction losses | VF = 410 mV @ 1 mA enables >90% RF detection efficiency in low-signal-level applications. |
| Negligible switching losses | No minority-carrier storage → zero reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0), eliminating switching noise in RF sampling circuits. |
| Low capacitance & inductance | 2 pF + 1.5 nH yields self-resonant frequency >1.3 GHz, supporting operation across UHF and low-band microwave bands. |
| High-temperature operation | Rated to 150 °C junction temperature - sustains reliability in thermally constrained RF power amplifier bias networks. |
| ECOPACK® RoHS compliance | Lead-free SOD-323 package meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for reflow compatibility. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky detector diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NSVRB70MUT5G | Same 70 V VRRM, but 1.2 pF capacitance and 25 Ω RF at 100 MHz; SOD-323 package, automotive-grade AEC-Q101 qualified. | Preferred in automotive infotainment RF receivers requiring extended temperature validation (–40 °C to +125 °C). | Select when AEC-Q101 qualification and lower C are prioritized over cost; same PCB footprint. |
| SKY13370-374LF | Integrated SPDT switch with integrated Schottky detector; 3.5 pF off-capacitance, not discrete diode; 2.0 × 2.0 mm QFN package. | Used in multi-band cellular front-ends where integrated switching + detection replaces discrete diode + external switch. | Choose only when system-level integration (switch + detector) is required; not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with NSVRB70MUT5G and SKY13370-374LF, BAS70JFILM offers the lowest cost, smallest footprint (SOD-323), and best balance of C/L/R for discrete RF detector use-while the alternatives trade size, integration, or qualification for specific system architectures.

FAQ
What is the maximum RF frequency range supported by BAS70JFILM?
The BAS70JFILM supports operation up to approximately 1.3 GHz, determined by its 2 pF junction capacitance and 1.5 nH series inductance (self-resonant frequency ≈ 1/(2π√(LC))). Measured performance shows usable detector efficiency through 900 MHz with minimal phase distortion, validated in ST's application note AN2872 for RF envelope detection.
Can BAS70JFILM be used in place of a germanium diode in vintage RF detector circuits?
Yes-BAS70JFILM provides comparable 410 mV forward voltage at 1 mA (similar to germanium's ~300 mV), while offering superior temperature stability, lower leakage (<10 µA vs. >100 µA for Ge), and no risk of thermal runaway. Its SOD-323 footprint requires adapter layout but delivers repeatable, manufacturable performance versus aging germanium parts.
Is BAS70JFILM suitable for DC-coupled RF sampling applications?
No-its 10 µA reverse leakage at 70 V makes it unsuitable for high-impedance DC-coupled sampling where leakage-induced offset would exceed 1 mV in ≥100 kΩ paths. It is optimized for AC-coupled RF detection with capacitor isolation; for DC sampling, consider ultra-low-leakage Si PIN diodes like SMP1307-079.
Does BAS70JFILM require derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes-derating is required per Figure 2 in the datasheet: average forward current drops from 70 mA at 25 °C ambient to 45 mA at 75 °C and 20 mA at 125 °C on standard epoxy PCBs. Thermal relief pads and copper pour reduce Rth(j-a) and extend usable current range in thermally demanding layouts.
