Product details
Overview
BAT54SW-QX from Nexperia is a dual common-cathode Schottky barrier diode in SOT323 (SC-70) package, featuring 30 V reverse voltage rating, 800 mV max forward voltage at 100 mA, 2 µA max reverse leakage at 25 V, 10 pF capacitance at 1 V, and 5 ns reverse recovery time - optimized for ultra-high-speed switching and reverse polarity protection in automotive power rails.
For engineers reviewing the BAT54SW-QX datasheet, BAT54SW-QX pinout, BAT54SW-QX application, or BAT54SW-QX equivalent, this device supports AEC-Q101-qualified designs requiring low-loss clamping, fast transient response, minimal parasitic capacitance, and dual-diode integration in space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This dual Schottky diode integrates two independent junctions sharing a common cathode terminal (Pin 3), enabling compact dual-function implementation without external interconnects. Its planar structure with guard ring ensures robust ESD and surge immunity per AEC-Q101 stress testing protocols.
The device operates with junction temperatures up to 150 °C and delivers stable forward conduction down to 240 mV at 0.1 mA while maintaining sub-2 µA leakage at rated VR - critical for low-power automotive sensor interfaces and always-on supply monitoring circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 30 V - supports 24 V automotive systems with 25 % safety margin against load-dump transients |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 800 mV @ 100 mA - minimizes conduction loss in reverse-polarity protection paths |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 µA @ 25 V - ensures negligible standby current in battery-backed circuits |
| Capacitance (Cd) | 10 pF @ 1 V - enables clean signal integrity in >100 MHz line termination applications |
| Reverse Recovery (trr) | 5 ns - allows reliable operation in 100+ MHz digital bus clamping and ESD snubbing |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 625 K/W - defines derating curve for 200 mW total dissipation on standard FR4 PCB |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C - validates continuous operation in under-hood automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in SOT323 (SC-70), a 2.0 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm surface-mount plastic package with 1.3 mm lead pitch and tin-plated terminations compatible with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode (Diode 1) | Input node for first Schottky junction; connects to protected supply rail or signal line |
| 2 | Cathode (Diode 2) | Output node for second junction; ties to ground or reference plane in clamp configuration |
| 3 | Common Cathode/Anode (K1/A2) | Shared terminal enabling dual-diode topology - used for bidirectional clamping or dual-rail protection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD per JS-001 |
| Guard ring integration | Prevents edge breakdown under high dv/dt stress - essential for CAN/LIN bus transient suppression |
| Low capacitance (10 pF) | Preserves signal rise/fall times in USB 2.0, I²C, and SPI data lines without added RC delay |
| Pulsed forward current rating | 600 mA non-repetitive peak - accommodates inrush current during hot-swap events in infotainment modules |
| Common-cathode dual configuration | Reduces component count vs. discrete diodes - saves 1.5 mm² board area in compact ECU designs |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | High-Speed Data Line Clamping |

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 NSR20F30NXT5G | Single-anode dual-cathode topology; 30 V VR; 450 mV VF @ 10 mA; 15 pF Cd | Optimized for lower-current signal clamping rather than power rail protection | Select when prioritizing ultra-low VF at microamp bias over high-pulse current capability |
| Vishay SDM100S30 | SOT-23 package; 30 V VR; 850 mV VF @ 100 mA; 12 pF Cd; no AEC-Q101 certification | Lacks automotive qualification; higher thermal resistance (750 K/W) | Acceptable for industrial control boards where AEC compliance is not mandated |
Compared with BAT54SW-QX, NSR20F30NXT5G offers better low-current forward performance but lacks pulsed current headroom, while SDM100S30 trades qualification and thermal efficiency for broader distributor availability in non-automotive programs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for BAT54SW-QX?
The BAT54SW-QX has a maximum continuous forward current (IF) of 200 mA per diode, defined at Tamb ≤ 25 °C with device mounted on an FR4 PCB using standard footprint. Derating is required above 25 °C ambient, following the 625 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance curve.
Can BAT54SW-QX be used in place of a single Schottky diode?
Yes - either diode within the BAT54SW-QX can be used independently by connecting Pin 1 (A1) and Pin 3 (K1/A2) as anode-cathode pair, or Pin 2 (K2) and Pin 3 (K1/A2) as second anode-cathode pair. The unused terminal must remain unconnected or tied to appropriate potential per circuit function.
Is the SOT323 package compatible with automated optical inspection (AOI)?
Yes - the SOT323 package features coplanar, gull-wing leads with 1.3 mm pitch and clearly defined solder mask openings per Nexperia's recommended footprint (Fig. 6). Its 0.95 mm height and consistent marking ("44%") support reliable AOI detection of solder joint quality and placement offset.
Does BAT54SW-QX support bidirectional transient voltage suppression?
No - BAT54SW-QX is a unidirectional Schottky diode pair. For bidirectional TVS functionality, it must be combined with a complementary PNP/NPN transistor stage or paired with a dedicated bidirectional TVS like PESD5V0S1BA. Its inherent asymmetry limits clamping to forward-biased conduction only.
