Small-signal Schottky for low-voltage rail protection
The Infineon BAT54WE6327 is a 30 V, 200 mA Schottky barrier diode in a PG-SOT323-3 surface-mount package. Its 800 mV forward voltage at 100 mA and 5 ns reverse recovery time make it a standard choice for low-voltage rectification, freewheeling, and polarity protection in compact designs.
Forward voltage and switching speed
At 100 mA forward current the maximum forward voltage is 800 mV — typical for a 30 V Schottky in this current class. The 5 ns reverse recovery time keeps switching losses low in high-frequency rectifiers or DC-DC converter snubbers.
Leakage and capacitance at reverse bias
Reverse leakage is 2 µA at 25 V, and junction capacitance measures 10 pF at 1 V, 1 MHz. These figures matter for low-power hold-up circuits and high-impedance signal clamping where leakage current or capacitive loading affects accuracy.
The PG-SOT323-3 package (SC-70, SOT-323 footprint) is a standard three-lead small-signal outline. The surface-mount body suits automated assembly and reflow processes; store the reels dry per MSL requirements.
