Product details
Overview
BAT46WH from Nexperia is a single planar Schottky barrier diode with integrated guard ring for stress protection, housed in an SOD123F surface-mount package. It delivers 710–850 mV forward voltage at 250 mA, ≤4 µA reverse leakage at 75 V, and 5.9 ns reverse recovery time - enabling high-speed switching and reverse polarity protection in space-constrained DC/DC converters and USB power paths.
For engineers reviewing the BAT46WH datasheet, BAT46WH pinout, BAT46WH application, or BAT46WH equivalent, key selection criteria include low VF for efficiency-critical 5 V/3.3 V rail clamping, 100 V VR rating for transient tolerance, SOD123F thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 25 K/W), and verified 39 pF capacitance at 1 MHz for signal integrity in line termination.
Technical Context
The BAT46WH employs a planar Schottky junction architecture with an integrated guard ring to suppress edge breakdown under high dv/dt or ESD stress. Its low-barrier metal-semiconductor interface enables fast carrier injection and minimal minority-carrier storage.
This discrete diode operates without bias circuitry or control logic - conduction is governed solely by applied voltage polarity and magnitude relative to its 0.71–0.85 V forward threshold. Thermal design relies on direct cathode pad soldering to achieve 25 K/W junction-to-solder-point resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 100 V - supports input transients up to IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV surge) in 5–24 V systems |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 710–850 mV @ 250 mA - reduces conduction loss by ≥30% vs. standard silicon diodes in 3.3 V load-switch paths |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 1–4 µA @ 75 V - ensures <100 nW standby leakage in battery-backed circuits at room temperature |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | 5.9 ns - enables clean switching at >50 MHz in RF detector and high-frequency rectifier applications |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 39 pF @ 0 V - maintains signal integrity in 100 Mbps USB 2.0 data-line clamping without resonance |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-sp)) | 25 K/W - allows 780 mW power dissipation with <20 °C rise above solder point on 1 cm² cathode pad |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in the SOD123F plastic surface-mount package (2.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm), the BAT46WH uses a two-terminal configuration with flat leads optimized for automated reflow assembly and thermal transfer via the cathode pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Marked side) | Cathode (K) | Connected to ground or lower-potential node; marking bar identifies this terminal; primary thermal path to PCB |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to input voltage or higher-potential node; carries forward current during conduction phase |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated guard ring | Prevents premature edge breakdown under repetitive 100 V reverse bias, extending lifetime in industrial power supplies |
| Low forward voltage | 710 mV typical at 250 mA - minimizes voltage drop in 3.3 V reverse-polarity protection circuits |
| SOD123F footprint | 2.6 mm × 1.6 mm body with 1.1 mm height - fits 0805-class board area while enabling 1 cm² thermal pad for 780 mW operation |
| Low capacitance | 39 pF at 0 V - avoids signal distortion in 100 MHz clock line termination and RF envelope detection |
Applications
| High-Speed Switching | Line Termination |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Fast-switching buck converter freewheeling path in portable SSD power management. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode conducting during low-side MOSFET off-time; handles 250 mA peak current with sub-6 ns turn-off.

| Voltage Clamping | Reverse Polarity Protection |
|

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 | Lower VR (30 V), higher VF (800–950 mV @ 200 mA), same SOD-123 package | Restricted to ≤5 V systems; unsuitable for 12 V line clamping or load-dump protection | Select only for cost-sensitive 3.3 V USB power switches where 30 V VR suffices |
| Vishay VS-2EDH01HM3/85A | Higher VR (200 V), larger SOD-123 package (3.0 mm × 1.8 mm), VF = 750–900 mV @ 250 mA | Supports 24 V industrial rails but requires 15% more PCB area and has 2× Rth(j-a) in free air | Choose when 200 V transient immunity is mandatory and thermal pad area exceeds 1 cm² |
Compared with NSR0230HT1G and VS-2EDH01HM3/85A, the BAT46WH uniquely balances 100 V capability, 5.9 ns speed, and SOD123F compactness - making it optimal for 5–12 V embedded systems needing both surge resilience and high-frequency response.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current for BAT46WH at 75 °C ambient?
At 75 °C ambient temperature on an FR4 PCB with standard footprint, the BAT46WH supports 0.22 A average forward current (IF(AV)) under DC conditions (duty cycle δ = 1). This derating ensures junction temperature remains below 150 °C with 285 K/W thermal resistance to ambient.
Does BAT46WH require a heatsink for 780 mW operation?
No external heatsink is required. The 780 mW total power dissipation rating assumes mounting on an FR4 PCB with a 1 cm² tin-plated copper pad under the cathode. With Rth(j-sp) = 25 K/W, this yields only a 19.5 °C temperature rise above the solder point - well within safe operating limits.
Can BAT46WH be used in automotive applications?
No. Per Nexperia's revision history (v.3, October 2024), BAT46WH is explicitly non-automotive qualified. It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, automotive-grade screening, and extended temperature validation beyond −55 °C to +150 °C ambient. Automotive alternatives must be selected from Nexperia's -Q qualified series.
How does the integrated guard ring improve reliability?
The guard ring redistributes electric field lines away from the Schottky junction periphery, suppressing edge-initiated avalanche breakdown during repetitive 100 V reverse bias or ESD events. This extends operational lifetime in industrial power supplies subject to frequent line transients and improves consistency in automated test yield.
