Product details
Overview
PMBD7000 from Nexperia is a double high-speed switching diode in SOT23 package, configured as two series-connected diodes for bidirectional clamping or polarity-sensitive signal routing. It delivers trr ≤4 ns reverse recovery time, 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), and 450 mA IFRM per diode, enabling use in automotive CAN bus protection and high-frequency DC-DC converter snubbers.
For engineers reviewing the PMBD7000 datasheet, PMBD7000 pinout, PMBD7000 application, or PMBD7000 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified AEC-Q101 qualification, dual-diode topology with shared terminal, sub-4 ns trr at IF=10 mA/IR=10 mA, and thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 500 K/W on FR4 PCB.
Technical Context
The PMBD7000 integrates two planar silicon switching diodes in a single SOT23 package with shared cathode/anode terminal (Pin 3). Its structure enables series-connected operation without external wiring, reducing parasitic inductance in high-dI/dt paths.
It is characterized under standardized test conditions: trr measured at IF=10 mA to IR=10 mA with RL=100 Ω and IR sampling at 1 mA; VF specified across IF=1 mA to 150 mA; and thermal performance validated on FR4 PCB with single-sided copper and standard footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - supports input rail protection up to 80 V DC systems with 20% margin |
| trr | ≤4 ns - enables reliable operation in >100 MHz switching circuits and fast transient suppression |
| IFRM | 450 mA per diode - sustains pulsed current in flyback snubber and ESD clamp applications |
| VF @ 10 mA | 670–820 mV - low forward drop minimizes conduction loss in signal-level clamping |
| Rth(j-a) | 500 K/W - requires thermal-aware layout on FR4; derates to 125 mA at Tamb = 70 °C (double diode) |
| IR @ 100 V | ≤500 nA - ensures minimal leakage in high-impedance bias networks and sensor interfaces |
| Cd @ 0 V | ≤1.5 pF - preserves signal integrity in RF-coupled or high-speed digital line protection |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 (TO-236AB), 3-lead surface-mount plastic package, 1.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 0.95 mm body, standard footprint compatible with reflow and wave soldering per Nexperia's recommended land patterns.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode (Diode 1) | Input node for first diode; connects to source of clamped signal or positive rail |
| 2 | Cathode (Diode 2) | Output node for second diode; ties to ground or return path in series configuration |
| 3 | Cathode (Diode 1) / Anode (Diode 2) | Shared internal node - enables compact series connection without external trace |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD (HBM ≥8 kV) |
| Double-diode series topology | Eliminates interconnect inductance between diodes - critical for <5 ns trr consistency |
| Low Cd (≤1.5 pF) | Maintains bandwidth >100 MHz in RF front-end protection and high-speed data line clamping |
| Small SOT23 footprint | Enables placement adjacent to IC pins (e.g., CAN transceiver I/O) with minimal board area impact |
Applications
| Automotive CAN Bus Protection | High-Frequency DC-DC Snubber |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting CAN_H/CAN_L lines against ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a/b transients in 12 V vehicle networks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional clamping diode pair absorbing ±100 V surges while maintaining <4 ns response to preserve bit timing.

Use Scenario: IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±15 kV air/±8 kV contact) ESD protection on D+/D− lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (≤1.5 pF) clamping diode shunting transients to ground before USB PHY damage. Use Value: Preserves 480 Mbps signal integrity; leakage <500 nA avoids pull-up resistor loading. | Use Scenario: Detecting polarity of unknown DC input (e.g., field wiring in industrial sensors). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected diodes providing directional conduction path only when voltage exceeds VF × 2. Use Value: Enables simple hardware-based polarity validation without microcontroller intervention or power supply. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar double high-speed switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAT54C,215 | Single diode pair in SOT23; trr = 5 ns (typ), VRRM = 30 V, VF = 370 mV @ 10 mA | Limited to ≤24 V systems; lower VF improves efficiency but insufficient for 100 V surge clamping | Select when low forward drop and cost sensitivity outweigh voltage rating needs |
| PMESD5V0S1BA,115 | ESD-specific dual-line TVS; VBR = 5.6 V, IPP = 2 A, Cd = 0.9 pF; not rated for continuous forward conduction | Designed for transient-only suppression; lacks IFRM rating and DC forward capability | Select only for pure ESD protection; not suitable for snubber or polarity detection |
Compared with BAT54C and PMESD5V0S1BA, the PMBD7000 uniquely combines 100 V VRRM, 450 mA IFRM, and sub-4 ns trr in a dual-diode series configuration-enabling robust surge handling, sustained clamping, and deterministic polarity control where others fall short.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for each diode in the PMBD7000?
The PMBD7000 has a repetitive peak forward current (IFRM) rating of 450 mA per diode. Under continuous DC conditions at Tamb ≤25 °C, the absolute maximum forward current is 215 mA per diode (single diode loaded) or 125 mA per diode (both diodes loaded), based on its 250 mW total power dissipation limit and thermal resistance of 500 K/W.
Is the PMBD7000 suitable for bidirectional transient voltage suppression?
Yes-the series-connected dual-diode structure allows symmetrical clamping when used with appropriate biasing. With Pin 1 and Pin 2 referenced to opposite rails and Pin 3 grounded or biased, it provides matched forward conduction in both directions, making it effective for bidirectional surge suppression in CAN, LIN, and RS-485 interfaces.
How does the shared terminal (Pin 3) affect PCB layout and signal routing?
Pin 3 serves as the common cathode/anode junction, eliminating the need for an external trace between the two diodes. This reduces parasitic inductance and layout area, enabling direct placement between protected signal lines and reference planes. Layout must maintain thermal relief on Pin 3 to avoid localized heating during pulsed conduction.
Does the PMBD7000 require derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
Yes-derating is required. At Tamb = 70 °C, the maximum allowable forward current drops to 125 mA (double diode loaded) per the derating curve in Figure 1. Full 450 mA IFRM is only valid for short pulses (tp ≤1 μs); sustained operation above 215 mA per diode risks exceeding Tj = 150 °C even at 25 °C ambient.
