Product details
Overview
BAT54STC from ON Semiconductor is a dual common-cathode silicon epitaxial Schottky barrier diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 30 V reverse voltage, 200 mA continuous forward current, and 400 mV forward voltage at 10 mA. It delivers fast 5 ns reverse recovery time and low 7.5–10 pF junction capacitance at 1 V, enabling use in high-frequency switching applications such as SCSI bus clamping and mobile telecom DC-DC converter output rectification.
For engineers reviewing the BAT54STC datasheet, BAT54STC pinout, BAT54STC application, or BAT54STC equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual common-cathode configuration, low VF across 0.1–100 mA range (135–400 mV), 30 V VR rating, 5 ns trr, and SOT-23 thermal performance up to 125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The BAT54STC integrates two independent Schottky diodes sharing a common cathode terminal (Pin 2), forming a compact dual-diode topology optimized for space-constrained signal routing and bidirectional clamping. Its epitaxial construction enables low forward voltage drop and minimal stored charge, critical for high-efficiency, high-speed switching.
Designed for operation up to 125°C junction temperature, it supports continuous conduction at 200 mA with 330 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient, derating linearly above that point. The 5 ns reverse recovery time is measured under standardized 10 mA forward-to-1 mA reverse transition conditions with 100 Ω load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 30 V - Maximum DC blocking capability before breakdown; suitable for 24 V rail protection and 5 V/3.3 V logic-level clamping. |
| Forward Current (IF) | 200 mA - Continuous DC current per diode; supports moderate-power signal path rectification and OR-ing. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 400 mV @ 10 mA - Low conduction loss improves efficiency in low-voltage DC-DC outputs and level-shifting circuits. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | 5 ns - Enables reliable operation up to ~100 MHz switching frequencies in RF detector and high-speed data line clamping. |
| Junction Capacitance (CD) | 7.5–10 pF @ 1 V, 1 MHz - Minimizes signal distortion in high-speed digital interfaces like SCSI and USB data lines. |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 330 mW @ 25°C - Defines thermal limit in SOT-23; requires PCB copper area for sustained 200 mA operation at elevated ambient. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 surface-mount plastic package (3-pin, standard footprint), 1.3 mm × 2.9 mm × 1.0 mm body, gull-wing leads, JEDEC MO-178 compatible. Pin 1: Anode 1, Pin 2: Common Cathode, Pin 3: Anode 2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode of Diode 1 | Input node for first Schottky path; connects to signal source or supply rail requiring clamping/rectification. |
| Pin 2 | Common Cathode | Shared return path for both diodes; ties to reference plane (e.g., ground or regulated rail) for dual-directional protection. |
| Pin 3 | Anode of Diode 2 | Independent input node for second Schottky path; enables differential clamping or redundant signal routing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual common-cathode configuration | Enables compact bidirectional ESD/clamp protection on paired signal lines (e.g., RS-485 A/B) without extra ground traces. |
| Low VF across wide IF range (135–400 mV) | Reduces forward conduction loss in battery-powered systems where 0.1–10 mA bias currents dominate. |
| 5 ns reverse recovery time | Supports clean switching in >50 MHz clock distribution networks and RF front-end detector circuits. |
| 7.5–10 pF junction capacitance | Maintains signal integrity on high-speed digital buses (SCSI, LVDS) by limiting capacitive loading per line. |
Applications

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier replacement for low-loss DC-DC conversion at 1–3 MHz switching frequency. Use Value: 400 mV VF at 10 mA reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. standard PN diode, extending battery runtime. |
| USB 1.1 Data Line Protection | RS-485 Transceiver Interface |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV99LT1G | Single common-anode dual Schottky; 70 V VR, 215 mA IF, 1.25 V VF @ 50 mA | Higher VR suits 48 V telecom systems; higher VF increases conduction loss in low-voltage rails | Select when higher reverse standoff is required and VF penalty is acceptable. |
| NSR0230HT1G | Single Schottky; 30 V VR, 200 mA IF, 270 mV VF @ 10 mA, SOD-523 package | Smaller footprint but single-diode only; no dual common-cathode functionality | Choose for space-limited single-line clamping where dual topology is unnecessary. |
Compared with BAV99LT1G, BAT54STC offers lower VF and matched dual common-cathode layout ideal for differential signal protection; compared with NSR0230HT1G, it provides integrated dual-channel functionality in same SOT-23 footprint, eliminating routing complexity for paired signals.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation of BAT54STC?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 125°C. Operation at this temperature requires strict thermal management: PCB copper area ≥ 25 mm² per pad, ambient ≤ 85°C, and derated forward current to ≤120 mA. Exceeding 125°C risks permanent parameter shift and accelerated failure.
Can BAT54STC be used as a replacement for BAT54C in a common-anode design?
No. BAT54STC has a common-cathode pinout (Pin 2 = cathode), while BAT54C is common-anode (Pin 2 = anode). Swapping them causes reverse polarity conduction and circuit malfunction. Layout and schematic must match the specific BAT54 variant's internal topology.
Is BAT54STC suitable for 5 V USB 2.0 data line protection?
No. USB 2.0 high-speed (480 Mbps) requires <1.5 pF junction capacitance to avoid signal integrity loss; BAT54STC's 7.5–10 pF exceeds this limit. It remains valid for USB 1.1 (12 Mbps) where capacitance tolerance is relaxed.
What is the typical reverse leakage current at 25°C and 25 V reverse bias?
Typical reverse leakage current is 2.5 µA at 25 V reverse bias and 25°C ambient, per manufacturer characterization. Measured values range from 1.2 µA (min) to 4 µA (max) under those conditions, confirming suitability for low-leakage bias networks and precision clamping.
