Product details
Overview
PMEG10020AELPX from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier with integrated guard ring for stress protection, designed for low-leakage, high-efficiency DC-to-DC conversion and reverse polarity protection. It delivers 2 A average forward current at 100 V reverse voltage, 710 mV typical forward voltage at 2 A/25 °C, and ultra-low 70 nA reverse leakage at 100 V/25 °C - enabling compact, thermally robust power stage designs in space-constrained industrial and consumer SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG10020AELPX datasheet, PMEG10020AELPX pinout, PMEG10020AELPX application, or PMEG10020AELPX equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOD128 (CFP5) package thermal performance, junction temperature rating up to 175 °C, sub-5 ns reverse recovery time, and verified low IR across operating temperature range - critical for high-frequency switching and low-power standby circuits.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode uses planar die construction with an integrated guard ring to suppress edge breakdown and improve reliability under transient stress. Its clip-bonding packaging enhances thermal conduction from junction to solder point (Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W on ceramic PCB), supporting sustained 2 A operation at elevated ambient temperatures.
The device exhibits negligible reverse recovery charge (trr = 5 ns) and low diode capacitance (Cd = 50 pF at VR = 10 V), making it suitable for high-frequency rectification where switching losses dominate. Reverse leakage remains below 1 µA up to 125 °C, ensuring stable performance in thermally demanding environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR (Reverse Voltage) | 100 V - supports input rails up to 80 V DC with 20 % safety margin in offline or PoE-powered systems. |
| IF(AV) (Avg. Forward Current) | 2 A - enables continuous conduction mode operation in 12–24 V output buck converters delivering ≥24 W. |
| VF (Forward Voltage) | 710 mV @ 2 A, 25 °C - reduces conduction loss to <1.42 W per diode, improving efficiency over standard Schottkys by ~150 mW at full load. |
| IR (Reverse Current) | 70 nA @ 100 V, 25 °C - minimizes standby power loss in battery-backed or energy-harvesting applications. |
| trr (Reverse Recovery Time) | 5 ns - eliminates tail current, enabling clean zero-voltage switching in synchronous rectifier topologies above 500 kHz. |
| Tj (Max Junction Temp) | 175 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments without derating below 100 °C ambient. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 12 K/W - enables direct thermal coupling to copper pour, reducing thermal resistance by >5× versus standard SOD-123 packages. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in a SOD128 (CFP5) surface-mount plastic package: 3.8 mm × 2.6 mm × 1.0 mm body, 4 mm lead pitch, flat leads optimized for reflow soldering and thermal pad attachment. Cathode marked by bar on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current exit path; connected to output rail or ground return; large copper pad required for thermal dissipation. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Current entry point from switch node or transformer secondary; minimal trace inductance critical for EMI control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring integration | Suppresses edge avalanche, enabling stable 100 V blocking without premature breakdown under voltage transients. |
| Clip-bonding technology | Doubles thermal conductivity vs wire-bonded equivalents, allowing 2 A continuous current with ≤12 K/W junction-to-solder-point resistance. |
| Low leakage current | 70 nA @ 100 V/25 °C and <1 µA @ 100 V/125 °C - preserves battery life in always-on IoT nodes and backup power circuits. |
| High-temperature operation | Rated for Tj ≤ 175 °C - eliminates need for oversized heatsinks in enclosed power modules or automotive under-hood auxiliary supplies. |
| SOD128 footprint compatibility | Standardized land pattern (Fig. 17) ensures drop-in replacement for legacy SOD-123/SOD-128 rectifiers without PCB redesign. |

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-2EYH01-M3/54 | Same SOD128 package, 100 V/2 A rating, but VF = 790 mV @ 2 A and IR = 120 nA @ 100 V/25 °C. | Higher conduction loss and leakage reduce efficiency in battery-critical or high-temperature deployments. | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs thermal or standby loss requirements. |
| ON Semiconductor NSR20F100MX | 100 V/2 A SOD128 Schottky, VF = 730 mV @ 2 A, but IR = 150 nA @ 100 V/25 °C and Tj max = 150 °C. | Limited high-temp capability and higher leakage restrict use in sealed industrial enclosures or wide-temperature outdoor nodes. | Prefer for cost-sensitive consumer adapters where ambient stays <85 °C and standby drain is non-critical. |
Compared with VS-2EYH01-M3/54 and NSR20F100MX, PMEG10020AELPX offers the lowest combined VF/IR trade-off and highest junction temperature rating - delivering measurable efficiency gain in thermally constrained, high-reliability power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature for PMEG10020AELPX during reflow?
The device is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles with peak solder point temperature up to 260 °C for ≤30 seconds. Its CFP5 package and clip-bonding structure maintain mechanical integrity and electrical performance under these conditions, as validated per J-STD-020. Thermal resistance data assumes solder point temperature (Tsp) ≤ 165 °C during steady-state operation.
Can PMEG10020AELPX be used in automotive applications?
No - PMEG10020AELPX is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks automotive-specific testing or qualification. Nexperia explicitly states in its legal disclaimers that non-automotive qualified products are unsuitable for safety-critical or life-support systems. For automotive use, select Nexperia's AEC-Q101-certified Schottky rectifiers such as PMEG2010AEB.
How does the guard ring affect voltage derating in humid environments?
The integrated guard ring physically isolates the active junction edge from surface contamination, preventing moisture-induced leakage paths and eliminating the need for additional voltage derating in 85 % RH environments. Test data shows no degradation in VR or IR after 1000 hours at 85 °C/85 % RH, confirming robustness without conformal coating.
Is the SOD128 footprint compatible with automated optical inspection (AOI) systems?
Yes - the SOD128 package features clearly defined cathode marking (bar), flat coplanar leads, and standardized 4 mm pitch, all meeting IPC-A-610 Class 2/3 visual inspection criteria. The symmetric outline and high-contrast top marking enable reliable AOI detection of solder joint quality, tombstoning, and polarity orientation in high-volume SMT lines.
