Product details
Overview
BAV23SQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount, high-voltage dual switching diode in SOT23 package, rated for 250 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 400 mA forward current (IFM), and 50 ns reverse recovery time (tRR). It serves as a fast-switching, low-leakage protection or signal routing element in DC-DC converter flyback snubbers, battery isolation circuits, and automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BAV23SQ-7-F datasheet, BAV23SQ-7-F pinout, BAV23SQ-7-F application, or BAV23SQ-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q200-qualified reliability, 100 nA reverse leakage at 200 V/25°C, dual-diode configuration with common-cathode topology, and compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020 Level 1.
Technical Context
This dual diode integrates two independent, high-voltage silicon junction diodes in a single SOT23-3 package with common-cathode connection (Pin 1: Anode 1, Pin 2: Cathode, Pin 3: Anode 2). Its 250 V VRRM and 141 V RMS rating support use in 100–200 V DC bus conditioning and transient suppression.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C, features 5.0 pF total capacitance at 0 V, and delivers 1.0 V forward voltage at 100 mA - optimized for low-loss switching in portable power management where thermal resistance (RθJA = 357°C/W) and leakage (<100 nA @ 200 V/25°C) are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 250 V - supports clamping of transients up to 250 V peak without breakdown |
| IFM | 400 mA - enables continuous conduction in low-power DC-DC feedback paths and signal-level switching |
| tRR | 50 ns - ensures minimal switching loss in 100–500 kHz SMPS applications |
| IR @ 200 V / 25°C | ≤100 nA - reduces standby power drain in battery-backed systems |
| CT @ 0 V / 1 MHz | ≤5.0 pF - maintains signal integrity in high-frequency sensing and RF detector front-ends |
| PD | 350 mW - defines maximum dissipation on standard FR-4 PCB with 1"×1" copper pad |
| TJ Range | –55°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23-3, surface-mount plastic package with matte tin-plated alloy 42 leadframe, UL 94V-0 rated, moisture sensitivity level 1.

Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | USB Port Power Switching |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Isolating 12 V supply domains between lighting, wiper, and door lock subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-anode, common-cathode diode provides reverse-polarity protection and load-dump clamping per channel. Use Value: Prevents cross-conduction during hot-swap events while maintaining <100 nA leakage to preserve battery life over 10-year vehicle service life. | Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling VBUS power delivery to downstream USB peripherals in portable docking stations. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching dual diode routes or blocks 5 V power with sub-50 ns turn-off to meet USB 2.0 timing constraints. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete MOSFET gate drivers by leveraging low tRR and 1.0 V VF at 100 mA for efficient 5 V switching. |
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | AC-DC Adapter Flyback Snubber |
Use Scenario: Protecting analog front-end inputs of 4–20 mA loop-powered sensors from ESD and overvoltage transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual diode clamps positive/negative excursions to rail using common-cathode architecture tied to reference ground. Use Value: 250 V VRRM withstands IEC 61000-4-5 surge tests; 5.0 pF CT avoids loading high-impedance sensor outputs. | Use Scenario: Suppressing voltage spikes across primary-side MOSFETs in 12–24 V output AC-DC adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-recovery dual diode forms part of RCD snubber network, absorbing energy during MOSFET turn-off. Use Value: 50 ns tRR ensures full energy transfer before secondary conduction begins, improving efficiency by >2% vs. slower diodes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage dual switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV23CQ-7-F | Same package and ratings, but configured as common-anode (Pin 1: Cathode 1, Pin 2: Anode, Pin 3: Cathode 2) | Required where dual-input, single-output topology is needed (e.g., dual-rail OR-ing into shared load) | Select when circuit requires common-anode instead of common-cathode polarity |
| MBR0520L-7-F | Lower VRRM (20 V), Schottky construction, 0.35 V VF, no reverse recovery (tRR ≈ 0 ns) | Suitable only for ≤20 V systems; cannot replace BAV23SQ-7-F in 100+ V applications | Choose only for low-voltage, ultra-low-VF needs - not a drop-in replacement |
Compared with BAV23CQ-7-F, the BAV23SQ-7-F enables common-cathode configurations essential for dual-rail clamping to ground; versus MBR0520L-7-F, it trades higher forward voltage for 12.5× higher voltage capability and robust junction-isolation in harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the pin configuration of BAV23SQ-7-F?
BAV23SQ-7-F uses a common-cathode configuration in SOT23-3: Pin 1 is Anode 1, Pin 2 is the shared Cathode, and Pin 3 is Anode 2. This layout allows independent anode routing while referencing both diodes to a single return path - confirmed in Diodes' DS30042 Rev. 23, page 4 top-view diagram.
Is BAV23SQ-7-F suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - BAV23SQ-7-F is AEC-Q200 qualified per Diodes' product definitions and meets JEDEC stress test requirements for temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and humidity testing. It is explicitly designated for automotive use, unlike the non-Q BAV23S variants.
How does BAV23SQ-7-F differ from BAV23A-7-F?
BAV23SQ-7-F is the automotive-grade version of the BAV23S-7-F, with identical electrical specs and SOT23 package but certified to AEC-Q200. BAV23A-7-F is a different variant - common-anode configuration, also automotive-qualified, and marked separately in Diodes' ordering table (DS30042 p.1).
What is the maximum operating temperature for continuous use?
The BAV23SQ-7-F has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. For continuous operation at ambient temperatures above 75°C, derating per Figure 1 (power derating curve) applies: power dissipation must be reduced linearly from 350 mW at 25°C to zero at 150°C ambient on standard FR-4 board.
