Product details
Overview
BAV99W/DG/B4F from Nexperia is a dual high-speed switching diode in SOT323 (SC-70) package, configured as two independent series-connected diodes sharing a common terminal (anode of D1/cathode of D2 at Pin 3). It delivers trr ≤4 ns reverse recovery time, Cd ≤1.5 pF capacitance, and VR = 100 V, enabling fast signal routing and polarity protection in compact DC-DC converters and USB interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BAV99W/DG/B4F datasheet, BAV99W/DG/B4F pinout, BAV99W/DG/B4F application, or BAV99W/DG/B4F equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low-leakage performance (IR ≤0.5 μA at VR = 80 V), thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 625 K/W, and compatibility with reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020.
Technical Context
The BAV99W operates as a dual discrete diode pair with shared central terminal (Pin 3), supporting independent forward conduction paths: D1 (Pin 1→Pin 3) and D2 (Pin 3→Pin 2). Its silicon planar construction enables stable junction temperature up to 150 °C and guarantees trr ≤4 ns under IF/IR = 10 mA switching with RL = 100 Ω.
Designed for high-frequency signal steering, it maintains Cd ≤1.5 pF at 1 MHz and VR = 0 V, and exhibits VF = 855 mV typ. at IF = 10 mA - critical for minimizing voltage drop in low-voltage bias networks and ESD-clamp auxiliary paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 100 V - supports input rail protection up to 80 V DC without breakdown. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | ≤4 ns - enables reliable operation in >100 MHz switching nodes and RF detector circuits. |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | ≤1.5 pF at 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - minimizes signal coupling and timing skew in high-speed data lines. |
| Forward Current (IF) | 150 mA continuous - sufficient for logic-level clamping and low-power supply rail OR-ing. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤0.5 μA at VR = 80 V - ensures low standby power loss in battery-backed systems. |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 625 K/W - defines derating curve for ambient temperatures up to +150 °C on standard FR4 PCB. |
Pinout & Package
BAV99W/DG/B4F is housed in a SOT323 (SC-70) plastic surface-mount package measuring 2.2 × 1.35 × 0.9 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated placement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode of Diode 1 | Input node for first diode path; connects to source in reverse-polarity protection. |
| Pin 2 | Cathode of Diode 2 | Output node for second diode path; ties to load in series-switching configurations. |
| Pin 3 | Common Terminal (Anode of D2 / Cathode of D1) | Shared junction enabling dual-diode topology in 3-pin footprint; critical for compact OR-gate and clamp designs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD (HBM ≥8 kV). |
| Low trr ≤4 ns | Enables clean edge transitions in 50–200 MHz clock distribution and pulse shaping circuits. |
| Low Cd ≤1.5 pF | Preserves signal integrity in USB 2.0 D+/D− lines and LVDS receiver inputs. |
| VF = 855 mV @ 10 mA | Reduces forward drop in 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level clamping networks versus Schottky alternatives. |
| Rth(j-sp) = 300 K/W | Supports localized thermal management via solder-point conduction on thermally enhanced pads. |
Applications
| USB Port Polarity Protection | High-Speed Logic-Level Clamping |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Preventing damage from reversed USB cable insertion in host/device ports. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-diode configuration provides bidirectional reverse-voltage blocking while maintaining low forward drop on VBUS and GND paths. Use Value: Eliminates need for external MOSFET-based protection ICs; achieves <100 ns response with no control logic required. |
Use Scenario: Clamping TTL/CMOS signal overshoot on microcontroller GPIOs exposed to noisy industrial sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching diode pair shunts transient spikes above VCC or below GND using internal parasitic capacitance and low trr. Use Value: Limits voltage excursions to ±0.7 V with sub-ns reaction time, preserving I/O latch-up immunity without degrading rise/fall times. |
| DC-DC Converter Feedback Path | RF Detector Bias Network |
|
Use Scenario: Isolating feedback resistors from output ripple in synchronous buck regulators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series diode blocks reverse current during light-load discontinuous conduction mode, stabilizing error amplifier input. Use Value: Prevents feedback node perturbation during phase reversal, improving regulation accuracy by >0.5% across 10:1 load steps. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAV99LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | SOT23-3 package; trr ≤4 ns, Cd ≤2.0 pF, VR = 70 V | Limited to ≤70 V systems; higher capacitance reduces RF isolation margin | Prefer when legacy SOT23 footprint compatibility is mandatory and VR ≤70 V suffices. |
| MMBD7000LT1G (ON Semiconductor) | SOT23-3; trr ≤4 ns, Cd ≤2.5 pF, IR ≤100 nA @ VR = 25 V | Lower leakage but higher Cd compromises high-frequency signal integrity | Select only for ultra-low-leakage bias networks where speed >100 MHz is not required. |
Compared with BAV99W/DG/B4F, the BAV99LT1G trades 30 V lower VR and larger package for broader board-level compatibility, while the MMBD7000LT1G sacrifices RF performance for nanoscale leakage - making the BAV99W optimal for space-constrained, 100 V-rated, high-frequency applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for BAV99W/DG/B4F?
The BAV99W/DG/B4F is rated for 150 mA continuous forward current (IF) at Tamb ≤25 °C, derating linearly to 130 mA at higher ambient temperatures per its limiting values table. This rating applies per diode element and assumes operation within the specified thermal resistance envelope on standard FR4 PCB.
Is BAV99W/DG/B4F suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - BAV99W/DG/B4F is AEC-Q101 qualified, having passed stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD (HBM ≥8 kV). It is approved for use in automotive infotainment, body control modules, and ADAS sensor interfaces where high-speed switching and reliability are required.
How does the pin configuration of BAV99W differ from BAV99S?
BAV99W uses a 3-pin SOT323 package with pins 1 (D1 anode), 2 (D2 cathode), and 3 (common cathode/anode); BAV99S uses a 6-pin SOT363 package hosting four diodes in two independent series pairs. The BAV99W offers half the channel count but 30% smaller footprint and lower parasitic inductance due to shorter internal leads.
Can BAV99W/DG/B4F be used in RF applications above 1 GHz?
No - while its 1.5 pF capacitance and 4 ns trr support up to ~200 MHz signal routing, parasitic package inductance and junction characteristics limit effective use beyond 500 MHz. For >1 GHz RF switching, purpose-built GaAs or PIN diodes with sub-0.5 pF Cd and integrated matching are recommended.
