Product details
Overview
BAV70LP-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual high-speed switching diode in an ultra-small leadless DFN package (X1-DFN1006-3), designed for signal routing and clamping in space-constrained digital and RF circuits. It features 75 V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 300 mA forward current rating, 4.0 ns reverse recovery time, 2.0 pF capacitance at 0 V, and low forward voltage drop (0.715 V @ 1 mA).
For engineers reviewing the BAV70LP-7 datasheet, BAV70LP-7 pinout, BAV70LP-7 application, or BAV70LP-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include fast switching performance in high-frequency signal paths, low capacitance for minimal signal distortion, thermal robustness in compact layouts, and RoHS-compliant lead-free construction for modern PCB assembly.
Technical Context
The BAV70LP-7 integrates two independent silicon switching diodes in a single 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm DFN package with shared cathode connection (common-cathode configuration). Its 4.0 ns reverse recovery time enables reliable operation up to ~100 MHz signal frequencies, while the 2.0 pF junction capacitance supports low-load impedance matching in RF detector and antenna switch applications.
Thermal resistance of 312 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, FR-4 board) and -65 °C to +150 °C operating range allow stable performance in consumer portables and industrial control modules where ambient temperature fluctuation and board-level power density are critical constraints.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage | 75 V - supports DC blocking and transient clamping in 5 V–24 V logic and interface lines |
| Reverse Recovery Time | 4.0 ns - enables clean signal edge preservation in >50 MHz digital clock distribution |
| Junction Capacitance | 2.0 pF @ 0 V - minimizes loading on high-impedance RF nodes and crystal oscillator feedback paths |
| Forward Voltage | 0.715 V @ 1 mA - reduces conduction loss in low-current bias and level-shift networks |
| Power Dissipation | 400 mW - sufficient for continuous operation in dual-diode configurations without forced cooling |
| Operating Temperature | -65 °C to +150 °C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial motor drive environments |
Pinout & Package

| Pin 3 (Anode B) | Anode of Diode B | Signal input node for second independent diode path; enables dual-channel signal steering or redundancy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Fast reverse recovery | 4.0 ns - prevents pulse distortion in high-speed data line protection and sampling circuits |
| Lead-free & halogen-free | RoHS 2 compliant, <900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb - meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements |
Applications
| USB 2.0 ESD Protection | RF Antenna Switching |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual high-speed switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV99LT1G | Higher VF (1.25 V @ 150 mA), larger SOT-23-3 package (3.0 × 1.4 mm), 3.0 pF CT | Less suitable for RF and ultra-dense layouts due to size and capacitance | Select when higher surge current tolerance (IFSM = 4 A) outweighs board space and RF performance needs |
| MMBD7000LT1G | Same X1-DFN1006-3 package, but 100 V VRWM, 3.0 ns tRR, 1.5 pF CT | Better for 24 V industrial I/O protection and higher-frequency RF detectors | Prefer for designs requiring tighter timing margin or extended reverse voltage headroom |
Compared with BAV99LT1G and MMBD7000LT1G, the BAV70LP-7 offers optimal balance of ultra-small footprint, low capacitance, and thermal efficiency for portable and high-density RF applications-whereas alternatives trade size for ruggedness or speed for voltage rating.

FAQ
What is the pin configuration of the BAV70LP-7?
The BAV70LP-7 uses a 3-pin X1-DFN1006-3 package with Pin 1 as Anode A, Pin 2 as Common Cathode, and Pin 3 as Anode B. The cathode bar marking on the top surface aligns with Pin 2. This common-cathode arrangement supports bidirectional clamping and dual-signal routing without external interconnects.
Does the BAV70LP-7 support reflow soldering per JEDEC standards?
Yes, the BAV70LP-7 is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020, with moisture sensitivity level 1. Its NiPdAu-plated terminals meet MIL-STD-202 Method 208 solderability requirements, and the package withstands peak temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤60 seconds during standard Pb-free reflow profiles.
How does the BAV70LP-7 perform at elevated temperatures?
At +150 °C, the BAV70LP-7 maintains IR ≤ 50 µA at VR = 75 V and VF increases by ~120 mV versus 25 °C values. Its 312 °C/W thermal resistance and -65 °C to +150 °C rating enable reliable operation in automotive engine-control and industrial motor-drive environments without derating below 400 mW until ambient exceeds 85 °C.
Can the BAV70LP-7 be used in AC signal coupling applications?
No-the BAV70LP-7 is a unidirectional switching diode optimized for DC-biased clamping and signal steering. Its asymmetric IV curve and lack of symmetrical breakdown make it unsuitable for true AC coupling. For AC path isolation, a back-to-back diode configuration or dedicated AC-coupling capacitor is required.
