I just got some samples of a Vishay PAD5 picoamp-leakage diode, in
SOT23.

Pin 3 to pin 1 ohms as a diode

Pin 3 to pin 2 ohms as a diode

Pin 1 to pin 2 ohms as an 8K resistor.

Next project is to actually measure the forward and reverse curves,
down to pA levels.

Nice part, except I think they may have obsoleted it.
