Product details
Overview
BAT54SW RF from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 30 V, 200 mA Schottky barrier diode in SOT-323 package, optimized for ultra high-speed switching and voltage clamping in low-voltage signal paths. It delivers 5 ns reverse recovery time, 10 pF junction capacitance at 1 V, and forward voltage as low as 240 mV at 0.1 mA - enabling efficient protection and signal routing in portable RF front-ends and USB interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BAT54SW RF datasheet, BAT54SW RF pinout, BAT54SW RF application, or BAT54SW RF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 30 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 600 mA surge current rating, 125°C maximum junction temperature, and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for consumer and industrial PCB designs requiring fast, low-loss discrete protection.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode operates without minority-carrier storage delay, enabling sub-5 ns switching transitions critical for RF envelope detection and high-frequency clamp circuits. Its low 240–1000 mV forward voltage range across 0.1–100 mA ensures minimal insertion loss in signal path protection.
The SOT-323 package supports reflow soldering up to 260°C/10s and exhibits 625°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, limiting continuous power dissipation to 200 mW at room ambient - making it suitable for space-constrained, thermally sensitive applications like Bluetooth module ESD shunts and SIM card interface clamps.
Key Specifications

Applications
| USB 2.0 Data Line Protection | RF Power Detector Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting D+ and D− lines against ESD and overvoltage transients in portable USB peripherals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional clamping diode placed between data line and VBUS or ground rail. Use Value: 5 ns trr prevents data corruption during hot-plug events; 10 pF CJ avoids signal rise-time degradation above 480 Mbps. | Use Scenario: Clamping output of logarithmic RF power detector ICs to prevent saturation or rail-to-rail swing beyond ADC input range.

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 NSR0230P2T5G | Same SOT-323 package; 30 V VRRM, 200 mA IF, but 350 mV VF (typ) at 10 mA - 50 mV higher than BAT54SW RF | Higher VF increases power loss in battery-critical applications; otherwise functionally interchangeable in clamping roles | Select when tighter VF distribution or alternate qualification is required; verify layout compatibility with identical pinout |
| Diodes Incorporated BAV99LT1G | Dual series-configured diode in SOT-23; 70 V VRRM, 215 mA IF, 1.25 ns trr - faster but higher VF (1.25 V @ 50 mA) | Not pin-compatible; requires redesign for single-diode placement; better suited for high-voltage transient suppression | Choose only if dual-diode topology or >70 V clamping is needed; not a drop-in replacement for BAT54SW RF |
Compared with NSR0230P2T5G and BAV99LT1G, BAT54SW RF offers the lowest forward voltage in its class at low currents and optimal junction capacitance for RF-signal integrity - making it preferred for ultra-low-power, high-frequency clamping where VF and CJ are design-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for BAT54SW RF?
The BAT54SW RF has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max) of 125°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version D2102). This rating applies under continuous operation with proper PCB thermal relief and limits ambient operating temperature in sealed enclosures. Derating is required above 25°C ambient to maintain reliability - BAT54SW RF must not exceed 125°C junction temperature in final application.
Is BAT54SW RF pin-compatible with BAT54W RFG or BAT54AW RFG?
Yes - BAT54SW RF shares identical SOT-323 package dimensions, pin configuration (anode/cathode/slug), and marking layout (L44) with BAT54W RFG (L4), BAT54AW RFG (L42), and BAT54CW RFG (L43). All variants use the same die construction and thermal/mechanical specifications; only the forward voltage grade differs - BAT54SW RF is the "standard" variant with VF ≤ 500 mV at 30 mA.
Does BAT54SW RF meet halogen-free requirements?
Yes - BAT54SW RF is halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS compliant, as confirmed in the "Ordering and Marking Information" section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version D2102). The "G" suffix in BAT54SW RFG denotes green compound, and the device carries full material declaration documentation for environmental compliance reporting.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) specification for BAT54SW RF?
The reverse recovery time (trr) for BAT54SW RF is 5 ns, measured under IF = 10 mA, IR = 10 mA to IR = 1 mA, RL = 100 Ω per the Electrical Specifications table in the official datasheet. This value is typical and guaranteed maximum - critical for maintaining signal fidelity in RF detector and high-speed digital clamp applications where BAT54SW RF is deployed.
Can BAT54SW RF be used for reverse polarity protection in 3.3 V systems?
Yes - BAT54SW RF is suitable for reverse polarity protection in 3.3 V systems due to its 200 mA continuous forward current rating, 240–400 mV forward voltage at low currents, and 30 V repetitive peak reverse voltage. Its low VF minimizes voltage drop across the protection path, preserving headroom for downstream LDOs or regulators - a key design advantage of BAT54SW RF in compact battery-powered devices.
