Product details
Overview
BAT720/DG/B2,215 from NXP Semiconductors is a planar Schottky barrier diode with integrated guard ring for stress protection, housed in an SOT23 (TO-236AB) surface-mount package. It delivers 40 V reverse voltage rating, 550 mV forward voltage at 500 mA, and 60–90 pF capacitance at 1 MHz, enabling ultra-high-speed switching in automotive power rail clamping.
For engineers reviewing the BAT720/DG/B2,215 datasheet, BAT720/DG/B2,215 pinout, BAT720/DG/B2,215 application, or BAT720/DG/B2,215 equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q101 qualification, low VF/low Cd trade-off, reverse polarity protection capability, and SOT23 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The BAT720/DG/B2,215 uses a planar Schottky junction structure with an integrated guard ring to enhance ESD and transient robustness without compromising switching speed. Its low forward voltage (550 mV @ 500 mA) and low capacitance (60–90 pF @ 0 V) are co-optimized for high-frequency line termination and clamping in 12 V automotive subsystems.
Thermal performance is defined for FR4 PCB mounting (single-sided copper, tin-plated), with Rth(j-a) = 500 K/W and Tj max = 125 °C. The device supports non-repetitive peak forward current up to 2 A (10 ms square wave), making it suitable for surge-limited protection paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 40 V - Maximum continuous blocking voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating margin in 24 V automotive systems. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 550 mV @ 500 mA - Low conduction loss enables efficient reverse polarity protection with minimal voltage drop. |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 60–90 pF @ 1 MHz, 0 V - Enables <1 ns rise/fall times in high-speed signal line termination applications. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 100 µA @ 35 V, 25 °C - Low leakage preserves battery life in always-on automotive modules. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 125 °C max - Specifies thermal limit for sustained operation under engine bay ambient conditions. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Qualified per Automotive Electronics Council standard - validated for temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD robustness in automotive environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 (TO-236AB), 3-lead plastic surface-mount package with 2.8 mm × 1.4 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height; optimized for reflow and wave soldering on FR4 PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Input terminal for forward-biased conduction path; connects to protected supply rail or signal source. |
| 2 | Not Connected | Internally isolated; no electrical function - must remain unconnected on PCB to avoid parasitic coupling. |
| 3 | Cathode | Output/return terminal; ties to ground or lower-potential node during clamping or polarity protection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 NSS40201MR6T1G | 40 V VR, 480 mV VF @ 500 mA, 110 pF Cd, SOT-23 package | Higher capacitance limits use above 2 Mbps; lower VF improves efficiency in high-current paths | Select when forward loss dominates design priority and signal bandwidth ≤2 Mbps |
| Vishay VS-2EJH02-M3/5BT | 20 V VR, 450 mV VF @ 500 mA, 50 pF Cd, SOD-123 package | Lower voltage rating excludes automotive 24 V systems; smaller SOD-123 footprint saves area but lacks AEC-Q101 | Select for space-constrained consumer IoT designs where 24 V compatibility and automotive qualification are not required |
Compared with NSS40201MR6T1G and VS-2EJH02-M3/5BT, the BAT720/DG/B2,215 uniquely balances 40 V rating, AEC-Q101 compliance, and sub-100 pF capacitance - making it the only option qualified for high-speed, high-voltage automotive clamping where both reliability and signal integrity are critical.

What is the maximum continuous reverse voltage rating for BAT720/DG/B2,215?
The BAT720/DG/B2,215 has a maximum continuous reverse voltage (VR) rating of 40 V, as specified in Table 1 and Table 5 of the NXP datasheet Rev. 4. This rating applies under steady-state DC conditions at Tamb = 25 °C and defines the upper limit for reliable blocking operation in automotive 12 V and 24 V systems.
Is BAT720/DG/B2,215 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, BAT720/DG/B2,215 is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for discrete semiconductors, as confirmed in Section 8.1 of the NXP datasheet. This includes validation for temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and ESD robustness - making it suitable for under-hood and cabin automotive modules.
What is the forward voltage of BAT720/DG/B2,215 at 500 mA?
The forward voltage (VF) of BAT720/DG/B2,215 is 550 mV at IF = 500 mA and Tj = 25 °C, per Table 1 and Table 7 in the NXP datasheet. This value is typical and guaranteed not to exceed 550 mV under those test conditions.
Does BAT720/DG/B2,215 have a connected pin 2?
No, pin 2 of BAT720/DG/B2,215 is internally not connected (n.c.), as shown in Table 2 and the simplified outline diagram in the NXP datasheet. It must remain unconnected on the PCB layout to prevent unintended coupling or thermal effects.
What is the diode capacitance of BAT720/DG/B2,215 at zero bias?
The diode capacitance (Cd) of BAT720/DG/B2,215 is 60–90 pF at f = 1 MHz and VR = 0 V, as specified in Table 7 of the NXP datasheet. This range reflects process variation and is measured under pulsed conditions (tp ≤ 300 µs, duty cycle ≤ 0.02).
