Diode Ba157 - BA159 (Data Sheet)

Vishay Semiconductors produces fast switching plastic rectifiers in the BA157 through BA159 series. These rectifiers have reverse voltages ranging from 400V to 1000V and a forward current of 1A. They feature a plastic DO-204AL package, high surge current capability, fast switching for efficiency, and can withstand high temperature soldering. The rectifiers have axial leads and come packaged in bulk boxes, tape and reel.
