Diodes are used for rectifying and in arrays for applications such as: switching, isolating, amplifying, and mediating. The BAV99-D87Z diode array is one such rectifier diode array designed to fit into a standard eight-lead or small outline integrated circuit (SOIC) packaging. It is designed to save board area by providing configuration capability in a very small package.

This particular diode array is a double-dual Silicon Avalanche Diode Array, which is a low voltage device with a maximum supply voltage of 6V. It has a total of four individual Silicon Avalanche Diodes, which are configured in a two-in series and two-in parallel configuration, allowing for increased on-resistance with lower maximum forward current pressures. It also reduces the device\'s breakdown voltage, making it suitable for low-voltage applications.

The BAV99-D87Z diode array is composed of four independent Silicon Avalanche Diodes, the two series-parallel connected diodes having the same current rating and the two symmetrical connected diodes having the same reverse current rating. This configuration allows for use in a wide range of applications, including AC-DC converters and linear regulators, DC-DC converters, motor controls, and many other low-voltage controlling applications where a low on-state voltage drop is desirable.

This device’s Avalanche characteristics ensure a minimum on-state voltage drop across the load when driving either positive or negative loads in Forward Bias operation. It also has the ability to operate in Reverse Bias operation, with the reversed diodes blocking current in either direction, helping protect against over-voltages and surges.

The primary working principle of this diode array is that when an AC or DC voltage is applied, it will start to conduct after the Avalanche voltage has been reached. Once this occurs, the device would then regulate the current flowing through it, based on the applied voltage, thus providing a low-voltage drop and a uniform output current.

The BAV99-D87Z diode array is an excellent choice for DC-DC converters, linear regulators, motor controls, and other low-voltage applications across the automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics sectors. It has a very low profile and small foot print, making it simple and cost-effective to include in any design while taking up less board space. This device also has very low junction capacitance, making it ideal for high-speed applications.

In summary, the BAV99-D87Z diode array is an effective and efficient diode array, providing low voltage drop and uniform output current in a wide variety of applications. It can provide protection against over-voltages and surges, and is a great choice for DC-DC converters, linear regulators, motor controllers, and other low-voltage applications across automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics markets.
