Rhea-AI Summary

Vishay Intertechnology announced the launch of compact surface-mount small signal diodes, the BAS40L Schottky and BAS16L switching diodes, available in both 40 V and 100 V versions. These diodes, in the DFN1006-2A plastic package, occupy 90% less board space, offer a 50% lower profile, and improve thermal performance over traditional SOD/T packages.

With a moisture sensitivity level of 1 and UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, these diodes are RoHS-compliant and designed for automotive and industrial applications, supporting automated optical inspection.

Positive

• Compact design occupies 90% less board space and offers a 50% lower profile than traditional packages.
• AEC-Q101 qualified versions increase reliability for automotive applications.
• RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, meeting environmental standards.

Negative

• None.

Available in AEC-Q101 Qualified Versions, 40 V and 100 V Devices Save Space and Improve Thermal Performance Over Diodes in Traditional SOD/T Packages

MALVERN, Pa., Oct. 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced new surface-mount small signal diodes in the ultra compact DFN1006-2A plastic package with wettable flanks. Designed to save space and improve thermal performance in automotive and industrial applications, the 40 V BAS40L Schottky and 100 V BAS16L switching diodes are each available in AEC-Q101 qualified versions.

Measuring only 1 mm by 0.6 mm by 0.45 mm, the diodes released today occupy 90 % less board space than devices in traditional SOD/T packages while offering a 50 % lower profile and better power dissipation. For protection again excessive voltage, such as electrostatic discharges, the BAS40L features a PN junction guard ring.

The BAS40L and BAS16L offer a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1 in accordance with J-STD-020 and a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green, the diodes support automated optical inspection (AOI) for automotive systems. Soldering can be checked by standard vision inspection; no X-ray is required.
