What are the main features of the BAS116,215?
The BAS116,215 is a small-signal switching diode designed for surface-mount applications. It supports a continuous reverse voltage of up to 75 V and features very low leakage current, typically around 3 pA. The device offers a fast switching time of about 0.8 µs and can handle a repetitive peak forward current of up to 500 mA. It is packaged in a compact TO-236AB (SOT-23) package, making it suitable for space-saving circuit designs.
What is the BAS116,215 used for?
It is commonly used in signal switching, voltage clamping, protection circuits, and general-purpose signal routing in consumer electronics, communication equipment, and industrial electronic systems.
Does the BAS116,215 have alternative parts?
Yes. Similar small-signal diodes include the BAV199 from Nexperia and the 1N4148WS from onsemi, depending on voltage rating and switching performance requirements.
