Product details
Overview
LLSD101C-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Schottky barrier diode in MiniMELF glass package, rated for 40 V DC blocking voltage, 15 mA forward current, and 0.39 V forward voltage at 1.0 mA. It delivers fast 1.0 ns reverse recovery time and low 2.2 pF junction capacitance, used in low-power signal demodulation and RF detector circuits.
For engineers reviewing the LLSD101C-13 datasheet, LLSD101C-13 pinout, LLSD101C-13 application, or LLSD101C-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its cathode-band polarity marking, glass-body thermal stability up to +125°C junction temperature, RoHS-compliant Sn97.5Ag2.5 termination, and MiniMELF mechanical dimensions (A: 3.30–3.70 mm, B: 1.30–1.60 mm).
Technical Context
This Schottky diode leverages guard ring construction to suppress transient-induced leakage and improve ruggedness under repetitive voltage stress. Its low forward voltage drop stems from optimized metal-semiconductor interface design, enabling efficient operation in battery-powered signal paths.
The device exhibits minimal charge storage due to ultrafast trr (1.0 ns) and low CT (2.2 pF at 0 V), making it suitable for high-frequency envelope detection and low-current switching where capacitive loading and switching loss must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR (DC Blocking) | 40 V - Maximum steady-state reverse bias before breakdown in signal coupling applications |
| VF @ 1.0 mA | 0.39 V - Enables sub-0.4 V conduction threshold for weak-signal detection |
| IF Continuous | 15 mA - Supports sustained current in low-power RF detector and clamp circuits |
| trr | 1.0 ns - Allows operation up to ~350 MHz small-signal rectification without phase distortion |
| CT @ 0 V | 2.2 pF - Limits parasitic shunt capacitance in 10–100 MHz tuned circuits |
| TJ Range | −55°C to +125°C - Ensures stable VF and IR performance across industrial ambient conditions |
| Package | MiniMELF (Glass) - Provides hermetic sealing, UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and high-temperature solder compatibility |
Pinout & Package
MiniMELF glass package with axial cathode band marking; two-terminal device with no internal leads - anode and cathode defined by band position. Body diameter 1.30–1.60 mm, length 3.30–3.70 mm, lead-free Sn97.5Ag2.5 termination.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to higher-potential node in forward-biased configuration; requires PCB pad layout per AP02001 for thermal reliability |
| Cathode (band-marked end) | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Band identifies polarity during automated placement; critical for correct orientation in RF detector and clamping topologies |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring construction | Suppresses edge leakage and improves transient immunity in ESD-prone RF front-ends |
| Low VF (0.39 V @ 1 mA) | Enables detection of signals as low as −20 dBm in crystal radio-style receivers |
| 1.0 ns trr | Minimizes stored charge loss in 10–50 MHz AM demodulator stages |
| 2.2 pF CT | Preserves Q-factor in parallel-resonant tank circuits operating above 30 MHz |
| UL 94V-0 glass body | Meets flame-retardancy requirements for Class B consumer and industrial enclosures |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SD101CW-7 | Same MiniMELF package; lower VF (0.35 V @ 1 mA); higher IF (30 mA); RoHS-compliant SnAgCu finish | Supports higher continuous current in active bias networks; better suited for 50 mA peak pulse clamping | Select SD101CW-7 when upgrading legacy designs requiring extended current headroom and updated Pb-free compliance |
| BAT54C-7-F | SOT-23 package; dual common-cathode configuration; VF = 0.33 V @ 10 mA; CT = 10 pF @ 0 V | Higher capacitance limits use to ≤10 MHz; surface-mount compatible but not drop-in due to footprint mismatch | Choose BAT54C-7-F only if board redesign allows SOT-23 placement and system bandwidth permits higher CT |
Compared with LLSD101C-13, SD101CW-7 offers improved current capability and modern termination, while BAT54C-7-F trades MiniMELF's low-CT advantage for dual-diode integration at the cost of 4.5× higher junction capacitance - critical for >30 MHz signal integrity.

FAQ
Is LLSD101C-13 suitable for new designs?
No - Diodes Incorporated explicitly marks LLSD101C-13 as "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGNS" and recommends SD101AW–SD101CW as direct replacements. These newer variants retain MiniMELF packaging but feature enhanced current ratings, tighter VF tolerance, and updated RoHS-compliant terminations aligned with J-STD-020D.
What is the thermal resistance of LLSD101C-13?
The thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RJA) is 375°C/W under standard FR-4 mounting conditions with the recommended pad layout per AP02001. This value assumes natural convection cooling and reflects the glass MiniMELF package's limited heat-spreading capability - appropriate for <400 mW dissipation in intermittent-use signal paths.
How is polarity identified on LLSD101C-13?
Polarity is marked by a single cathode band at one end of the glass MiniMELF body. The banded end is the cathode; the opposite end is the anode. No additional markings are present - consistent with industry-standard MiniMELF diode identification and verified in Diodes' DS30067 Rev. 5 mechanical drawings.
Does LLSD101C-13 meet automotive AEC-Q200 requirements?
No - LLSD101C-13 is not qualified to AEC-Q200. It is specified for industrial and commercial temperature ranges (−55°C to +125°C), but lacks the stress testing, failure analysis, and lot traceability required for automotive qualification. For AEC-Q200-compliant alternatives, consider Diodes' AP7165 series Schottky diodes in SOD-123FL packages.
