Vishay Silicon Junction Silicon Switching Diode 150 mA 100 V SOT-23 BAV99-E3-08

Vishay BAV99-E3-08 is a high-performance Silicon Junction switching diode designed for demanding electronic applications. This diode supports a maximum forward current of 150 mA and withstands peak reverse voltages up to 100 V, housed in a compact 3-pin SOT-23 surface-mount package.

The diode utilizes a superectifier structure that provides exceptional reliability under high-stress conditions. It features a cavity-free glass-passivated junction that enhances durability and long-term stability. The device enables fast switching operations with a peak reverse recovery time of only 6 nanoseconds, making it suitable for high-frequency switching circuits.

Low leakage current, typically under 0.2 μA, ensures energy efficiency with minimal loss during operation. The diode can handle high forward surge currents of up to 4.5 A, providing robust protection against surge events.

Its small form factor with precise mechanical dimensions (3.1 mm length, 1.43 mm width, and 1.05 mm height) allows integration into compact electronic assemblies. The operating temperature range from -55°C to 150°C supports a wide variety of environmental conditions.

The diode’s case is made of DO-204AL molded epoxy over a glass body, compliant with UL 94 V-0 flammability classification, ensuring safety and reliability. Terminals are matte tin plated and solderable according to J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 standards, guaranteeing consistent solder joints.

Typical industrial applications include high voltage rectification for G2 grids in cathode-ray tubes (CRT) and televisions, as well as snubber circuits in camera flashes, providing efficient switching and protection. This component is ideal for use in various electronic, industrial, and commercial electronic equipment requiring reliable high-speed switching diodes.
