Product details
Overview
PMEG030V050EPE-QZ from Nexperia is a 30 V, 5 A planar low forward voltage Schottky barrier rectifier in a CFP15B (SOT1289B) surface-mount package, designed for high-efficiency DC-to-DC conversion and freewheeling in automotive power systems. It delivers a typical VF of 440 mV at 5 A and 25 °C, supports 120 A non-repetitive peak forward current, and is qualified to AEC-Q101 for under-hood applications.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG030V050EPE-QZ datasheet, PMEG030V050EPE-QZ pinout, PMEG030V050EPE-QZ application, or PMEG030V050EPE-QZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low VF, thermal resistance of 3 K/W (junction-to-solder-point), dual-anode configuration, and suitability for reverse polarity protection and OR-ing in 12 V/24 V automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses clip-bond technology to minimize parasitic inductance and enhance thermal conduction from the die to the cathode tab. Its planar construction ensures stable reverse recovery behavior with trr ≤ 16 ns (step recovery) and negligible minority-carrier storage-critical for high-frequency switching in synchronous buck converters.
The device operates across –40 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, with VF varying from 500 mV at –40 °C to 360 mV at 125 °C (at 5 A), enabling consistent efficiency over wide ambient ranges. Its 470 pF capacitance at 1 V reverse bias supports fast transient response in low-voltage, high-current paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VF @ 5 A | 440–500 mV at 25 °C - enables <1.2 W conduction loss at full load in 12 V systems |
| VR | 30 V maximum reverse voltage - suitable for 24 V automotive nominal systems with transients |
| IF(AV) | 5 A average forward current - rated for continuous operation with δ = 0.5, Tsp ≤ 171 °C |
| trr | 16 ns (step recovery) - minimizes switching losses and EMI in >500 kHz SMPS |
| Rth(j-sp) | 3 K/W - direct thermal path to solder point enables high-power density layout on FR4 |
| IR @ 30 V | 45–150 µA at 25 °C - low leakage preserves battery standby life in always-on modules |
| Qrr | Not specified - Schottky architecture eliminates stored charge, eliminating reverse recovery tail |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in a thermally enhanced CFP15B (SOT1289B) package: 5.8 × 4.3 × 0.95 mm body, 2.13 mm lead pitch, ultra-thin profile optimized for automated reflow and high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Primary anode connection; electrically tied to Pin 2 - supports parallel anode routing for low-inductance input paths |
| 2 | Anode | Second anode terminal; redundant connection to same die anode - reduces bond-wire inductance and improves current sharing |
| 3 | Cathode | Exposed cathode tab - serves as primary thermal and electrical return path; soldered directly to large copper pour for Rth(j-sp) = 3 K/W |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Very low VF | 440 mV typ. @ 5 A, 25 °C - cuts conduction loss by ≥35% vs. standard Schottkys in 12 V rail applications |
| Clip-bond construction | Enables 7 A DC forward current rating and 120 A IFSM - supports robust surge handling in load-dump scenarios |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive use including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD - meets ISO 16750-2 requirements |
| Ultra-thin SMD package | 0.95 mm max height - allows placement beneath connectors or in space-constrained ADAS ECUs |
Applications
| High-Efficiency DC-DC Conversion | Reverse Polarity Protection |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Primary output rectification in 12 V → 3.3 V/5 V buck converters for infotainment head units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-loss synchronous rectifier replacement - conducts during low-side switch ON phase. Use Value: 440 mV VF reduces conduction loss to 2.2 W at 5 A, improving converter efficiency by 2.1% at full load vs. legacy 600 mV Schottkys. |
Use Scenario: Input protection for telematics control units powered from vehicle battery with risk of accidental reverse connection. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-blocking diode - placed between battery input and DC-DC input stage. Use Value: 30 V VR rating withstands load-dump spikes up to 35 V; 45 µA IR at 25 °C limits standby drain to <0.1 µA per unit in multi-module systems. |
| Freewheeling Diode | OR-ing Circuit |
|
Use Scenario: Freewheel path in 48 V mild-hybrid starter-generator controllers during MOSFET turn-off. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamp diode - provides low-impedance path for inductive kickback current. Use Value: 16 ns trr prevents voltage overshoot beyond 42 V; 120 A IFSM handles 5 ms cranking surges without degradation. |
Use Scenario: Dual-supply redundancy in domain controller power rails (e.g., main battery + backup supercap). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ideal diode element - placed in series with each supply path to prevent backfeed. Use Value: Dual-anode (Pins 1+2) simplifies PCB layout symmetry; 3 K/W Rth(j-sp) sustains 5 A per rail continuously at 85 °C ambient. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-50WQ03FN-M3/45 | Same 30 V/5 A rating but TO-220AC package; VF = 450 mV @ 5 A; Rth(j-a) = 40 K/W | Requires heatsink for >1.5 A continuous; unsuitable for high-density SMT-only designs | Select when board-level thermal mass is limited but mechanical mounting is available |
| ON Semiconductor MBR530LSFT1G | SOD-123FL package; VF = 520 mV @ 5 A; IF(AV) = 3 A; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Limited to 3 A average current; not validated for automotive temperature cycling or humidity testing | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive industrial supplies with <3 A load |
Compared with VS-50WQ03FN-M3/45 and MBR530LSFT1G, PMEG030V050EPE-QZ uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 5 A continuous rating in a 0.95 mm thin SMT package, and 3 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance-enabling compact, reliable, and thermally efficient automotive power stages.

FAQ
Is PMEG030V050EPE-QZ pin-compatible with other CFP15B Schottky rectifiers?
Yes - it shares the identical CFP15B (SOT1289B) footprint, pin assignment (Anode-Anode-Cathode), and thermal pad layout with Nexperia's PMEG045V050EP and PMEG020V050EPE-QZ. PCB land patterns and stencil designs are fully interchangeable without modification.
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature during reflow?
The absolute maximum solder point temperature is 260 °C for ≤ 30 seconds, per JEDEC J-STD-020. The recommended reflow profile uses a peak temperature of 255 °C with 60–90 seconds above 220 °C, matching the CFP15B package's thermal endurance specification.
Does this diode require a heatsink on standard FR4 PCBs?
No - with Rth(j-sp) = 3 K/W and Ptot = 2.15 W (at Tamb ≤ 25 °C), the device achieves safe operation at 5 A average current using only a 1 cm² cathode copper pour. Heatsinks are unnecessary unless ambient exceeds 85 °C or power dissipation exceeds 1.8 W continuously.
How does the dual-anode configuration improve circuit performance?
The dual-anode (Pins 1 and 2) reduces effective series inductance by ~40% versus single-anode equivalents, lowering voltage overshoot during fast switching. It also enables symmetric PCB routing to minimize loop area - critical for EMI reduction in high-frequency DC-DC converters.
