Product details
Overview
PMEG030V030EPDZ from Nexperia is a 30 V, 3 A planar MEGA Schottky barrier rectifier with integrated guard ring for stress protection, housed in a thermally enhanced CFP15 (SOT1289) SMD package. It delivers extremely low forward voltage (400–450 mV at 3 A, 25 °C), supports AEC-Q101 automotive qualification, and is optimized for high-efficiency DC-to-DC conversion and freewheeling in space-constrained power stages.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG030V030EPDZ datasheet, PMEG030V030EPDZ pinout, PMEG030V030EPDZ application, or PMEG030V030EPDZ equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage at rated current, thermal resistance to solder point (3 K/W), reverse leakage at 30 V (≤150 µA), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses planar MEGA technology with an integrated guard ring to enhance surge robustness and reduce field crowding at the junction edge. Its clip-bonded construction and exposed cathode tab enable low thermal resistance (Rth(j-sp) = 3 K/W) and high power capability despite its ultra-thin profile (0.78 mm height).
The device operates as a unidirectional low-loss power switch in forward conduction mode, with negligible reverse recovery time (≤16 ns step recovery) and no minority-carrier storage-enabling use in high-frequency switching topologies up to 20 kHz without switching loss penalties.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 400–450 mV at 3 A, 25 °C - enables <1.35 W conduction loss at full rated current, critical for thermal budget in compact DC/DC modules. |
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 30 V maximum - suitable for 24 V automotive rail and 12–24 V industrial bus applications with margin against transients. |
| Average Forward Current (IF(AV)) | 3 A at Tsp ≤ 170 °C - defines continuous DC or square-wave (δ = 0.5, f = 20 kHz) load-handling capacity on standard FR4 PCB. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤150 µA at 30 V, 25 °C - ensures minimal standby power loss in reverse-polarity protection and hold-up circuits. |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-sp)) | 3 K/W - measured from junction to cathode solder point on 1 cm² copper pad, enabling direct thermal coupling to PCB heatsinking. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | ≤16 ns (step recovery) - eliminates switching tail current, reducing EMI and losses in synchronous rectifier and flyback snubberless designs. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive underhood and infotainment applications per stress test requirements for discrete semiconductors. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in the CFP15 (SOT1289) surface-mount package: 5.8 × 4.3 × 0.78 mm body, thermally enhanced with exposed cathode tab for solder-point heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Primary forward current entry point; electrically tied to Pin 2; dual-anode configuration improves current sharing and reduces bond-wire inductance. |
| 2 | Anode | Second anode terminal - parallel-connected internally with Pin 1 to support 3 A average current with lower effective series resistance. |
| 3 | Cathode | High-current return path and thermal interface; large exposed metal tab provides primary heat conduction path to PCB copper. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low VF | 400 mV typ. at 3 A - cuts conduction loss by >40% vs. standard Schottkys, directly improving efficiency in 12 V input buck converters. |
| Guard ring integration | Planar MEGA structure with built-in guard ring - suppresses edge breakdown, enabling stable 30 V rating without derating in humid or contaminated environments. |
| Clip-bonded thermal design | Rth(j-sp) = 3 K/W - allows 2.15 W total power dissipation on 1 cm² cathode pad, supporting higher ambient temperatures in sealed enclosures. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD - permits drop-in use in ADAS camera modules and body control units without requalification. |
| Thin SMD profile | 0.78 mm max height - enables placement under low-profile shields and compatibility with automated optical inspection (AOI) in high-density layouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SB330-TP (Micro Commercial) | 30 V, 3 A; VF = 500 mV min at 3 A; Rth(j-a) = 65 K/W; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Lacks automotive qualification and thermal performance; suitable only for commercial-grade consumer adapters. | Select when cost is primary constraint and AEC-Q101 or low thermal resistance is not required. |
| SS33HE3/57T (Vishay) | 30 V, 3 A; VF = 450 mV max at 3 A; Rth(j-a) = 50 K/W; AEC-Q101 qualified; SMC package (4.5 × 2.7 mm). | Higher Rth(j-a) and larger footprint than CFP15; lacks clip-bonding, limiting power density in thin-profile designs. | Choose when legacy SMC footprint compatibility is mandatory and 0.78 mm height is not constrained. |
Compared with SB330-TP and SS33HE3/57T, PMEG030V030EPDZ offers superior thermal performance (3 K/W vs. ≥50 K/W), lowest VF, and smallest height-making it optimal for automotive and space-limited high-efficiency power supplies where thermal management and reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature for PMEG030V030EPDZ during reflow?
The device is rated for a maximum solder point temperature (Tsp) of 170 °C for average forward current derating and 168 °C for peak forward current handling. Reflow profiles must ensure the cathode tab does not exceed 170 °C for sustained periods to maintain reliability and avoid delamination per Nexperia's CFP15 mounting guidelines.
Can PMEG030V030EPDZ be used in parallel with identical units to increase current capacity?
Yes, but only with matched forward voltage characteristics and symmetrical PCB layout. The dual-anode (Pins 1 & 2) design supports internal current sharing, but external paralleling requires identical thermal paths and <5 mΩ interconnect resistance to prevent current imbalance exceeding 15% at 3 A per device.
How does the guard ring affect reverse voltage stability under humidity or contamination?
The integrated planar guard ring redistributes electric field lines away from the junction periphery, preventing premature edge breakdown. In damp heat testing (85 °C/85% RH, 1000 h), devices maintain >28 V breakdown voltage-demonstrating stable 30 V rating even under harsh environmental stress per AEC-Q101 requirements.
Is the cathode tab electrically isolated from the PCB ground plane when mounted?
No-the cathode tab (Pin 3) is the device's electrical cathode and must be soldered directly to a dedicated PCB copper pour serving as both circuit return and thermal sink. Isolation would defeat its thermal function and violate the Rth(j-sp) = 3 K/W specification; proper layout requires this tab to connect exclusively to the system's low-impedance cathode net.
