Product details
Overview
PMEG1020EA from Nexperia is a 2 A, 10 V ultra-low forward voltage Schottky barrier rectifier in an SOD323F (SC-76) surface-mount package, featuring integrated guard ring stress protection. It delivers 280–350 mV VF at 1 A and supports low-voltage DC-to-DC conversion in space-constrained power rails.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG1020EA datasheet, PMEG1020EA pinout, PMEG1020EA application, or PMEG1020EA equivalent, key selection criteria include its 280 mV typical forward voltage at 1 A, 10 V reverse rating, 2 A average forward current capability, thermal resistance of 210 K/W to solder point, and cathode/anode pin configuration in SOD323F.
Technical Context
This planar Schottky diode uses a guard ring structure to enhance robustness against electrical overstress and thermal runaway-critical for high-reliability low-voltage rectification. Its ultra-low VF minimizes conduction loss in 3.3 V and 5 V power domains where efficiency margins are tight.
The device operates with junction temperatures up to 150 °C and exhibits low reverse leakage (≤3 mA at 10 V, 25 °C) and low capacitance (37–45 pF at 5 V), enabling stable performance in high-frequency SMPS output stages and reverse polarity protection circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF (avg) | 2 A - supports continuous output current in compact DC/DC converters without forced cooling |
| VR | 10 V - suitable for 5 V and 3.3 V rail rectification and clamping with 100 % margin |
| VF @ 1 A | 280–350 mV - reduces power loss to ≤350 mW per diode at full load, improving system efficiency |
| IR @ 10 V | 1.2–3 mA - low leakage preserves battery life in always-on low-power applications |
| Cd @ 5 V | 37–45 pF - limits switching noise and EMI in >1 MHz buck converter outputs |
| Rth(j-sp) | 210 K/W - enables thermal management via PCB copper area under cathode tab |
| Tj max | 150 °C - allows operation in sealed industrial enclosures with ambient up to 85 °C |

Encapsulated in the SOD323F (SC-76) package: 1.7 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm body, 1.3 mm lead pitch, tin-plated terminations compatible with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to output rail or ground return path; primary heat-sinking terminal via solder pad |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Input side connection; carries full forward current into load or switching node |
Key Features

Applications
| Low Voltage Rectification | High-Efficiency DC/DC Conversion |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Output rectification in 3.3 V/1.8 V point-of-load (POL) buck converters for FPGA and SoC power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current path replacing synchronous MOSFETs where gate drive complexity must be avoided. Use Value: 280 mV VF cuts conduction loss by ~40 % vs. standard Schottkys, reducing thermal load on dense PCB layouts. |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated flyback or forward converters powering USB-C PD accessories. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode conducting during transformer reset phase with minimal reverse recovery. Use Value: Near-zero reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 0) eliminates switching spikes and simplifies EMI filtering. |
| Reverse Polarity Protection | Low Power Consumption Systems |
Use Scenario: Input protection for battery-powered IoT sensors and wearables accepting USB or coin-cell input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected anode-to-input, cathode-to-system rail to block reverse voltage events. Use Value: 1.2 mA max IR at 10 V ensures <1 µA standby drain when powered off-preserving shelf life. |
Use Scenario: Standby power path in smart home hubs with always-on BLE/Wi-Fi subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: OR-ing diode in dual-supply systems (battery + USB) preventing backfeed and enabling seamless switchover. Use Value: 100–130 mV VF at 10 mA maintains >99 % efficiency in microampere-level bias networks. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RB520S-30T2R | 30 V VR, 200 mV VF @ 100 mA, SOD-523 package (smaller, 1.2 mm × 0.8 mm) | Better suited for 12 V input protection; lower current rating (0.2 A avg) limits use in >500 mA loads | Select when higher reverse voltage margin is needed and peak current stays below 0.2 A |
| SS12 | 20 V VR, 500 mV VF @ 1 A, SMA package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm) | Larger footprint and higher VF increase board area and thermal overhead in miniaturized designs | Prefer for cost-sensitive, non-space-constrained 12 V adapter applications requiring 2 A continuous |
Compared with RB520S-30T2R and SS12, PMEG1020EA uniquely balances ultra-low VF (280 mV), 2 A current capacity, and sub-2 mm² footprint-making it optimal for high-density 3.3/5 V DC/DC outputs where thermal and size constraints dominate.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for PMEG1020EA?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 150 °C, as defined in IEC60134 limiting values. Operation above this threshold risks permanent degradation. Derating is required above 85 °C ambient; thermal design must ensure Rth(j-sp) = 210 K/W is achieved via adequate cathode-side copper area.
Is PMEG1020EA suitable for automotive applications?
No. Per Nexperia's revision history (v.6, Sept 2025), PMEG1020EA is explicitly non-automotive qualified. It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, automotive-grade testing, and extended temperature validation. Automotive alternatives require explicit -Q suffix parts such as PMEG1020EAX.
How does the guard ring improve reliability?
The integrated guard ring mitigates edge breakdown under high dv/dt or ESD stress by controlling electric field distribution at the silicon periphery. This prevents premature avalanche and increases robustness in noisy DC/DC environments-verified by Nexperia's stress qualification tests per JEDEC standards.
What is the recommended soldering profile for SOD323F?
Nexperia specifies reflow soldering per J-STD-020: peak temperature ≤260 °C, time above 217 °C ≤60 s, ramp-up rate ≤3 °C/s. Figure 6 defines the exact footprint-0.6 mm × 0.5 mm solder lands with 1.35 mm center-to-center spacing-to ensure mechanical integrity and thermal performance.
