BAV23S diodes are small fast switching silicon diodes in a very low V-I reverse leakage, low V-I forward voltage, low I-R forward voltage, low I-R resistance, and high V-I-R forward voltage. They are used in a wide array of applications, from universal AC/DC switching, to low voltage control and protection systems.

These diodes are designed to perform their best in an array, with the multiple diodes all acting together. This improves their performance over the standard single diodes and reduces power dissipation and voltage drop. Each individual diode is able to switch high and low voltage efficiently, until an array of about sixteen diodes offers the best power capability.

The BAV23S is rated for a reverse peak current as low as 500μA, and forward peak current up to 2A. This makes them suitable for most applications where low reverse leakage, low forward voltage and fast switching times are required. When used in an array, they are able to achieve high forward and reverse leakage currents over the entire rated voltage range. This offers greater control over the switching and regulation of power within the system.

The BAV23S offers good linearity, which is what makes them popular for DC-DC regulator applications. The forward voltage drop of the diode can be easily adjusted, based on the applied voltage, and the diode can be used in either a linear or switching mode over the rated voltage range. Also, the diodes offer low power loss when switched due to their low voltage and current characteristics.

The working principle of the BAV23S diode array is quite simple. When the diodes are connected in an array, each individual diode can act both as a conductor and as an insulator. This allows them to act both as a switch, when there is a low voltage applied, and as a resistor when higher voltages are applied. This enables them to control the flow of power, both up and down, in the system, while also protecting other components from over-voltage or under-voltage losses.

When the diode array is used in an AC/DC application, it acts to switch the current in the circuit with a very low surge of current. This protects the circuit, as the current is able to flow at a much slower rate, with minimal losses. The diodes are also able to reduce the EMI (electromagnetic interference) from the power supply, which is very important in any high-speed or high frequency application.

In a low voltage protection system, the BAV23S array is used to protect components from over-voltage and under-voltage scenarios. By connecting a higher rated diode over the normal rated voltage, the array can both switch the voltage up and down, and at the same time, protect it from over-voltage. This ensures that the circuit can maintain a stable regulated voltage, while protecting other components from over-voltage damage.

The BAV23S diode array is used in a wide array of applications, from basic audio/video applications to microprocessor controlled devices, due to their robust construction, low voltage characteristics, and low power loss. They are available in a number of different configurations, in order to meet the most demanding application requirements. With a low V-I reverse leakage, low V-I forward voltage, low I-R forward voltage, low I-R resistance and high V-I-R forward voltage, the BAV23S series of diodes provides a reliable, low-cost source of power.
