Product details
Overview
PMEG2005AEAF from Nexperia is a 20 V, 0.5 A Schottky barrier rectifier in SOD323 package, featuring 355–390 mV forward voltage at 500 mA, ≤200 µA reverse leakage at 20 V, and integrated guard ring for stress protection. It serves as a low-loss unidirectional current path in compact DC/DC converters and polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG2005AEAF datasheet, PMEG2005AEAF pinout, PMEG2005AEAF application, or PMEG2005AEAF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low VF performance, SOD323 thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) = 450 K/W), surge current capability (IFSM = 10 A), and non-automotive qualification status.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode uses a planar silicon structure with an integrated guard ring to suppress edge breakdown under high electric field stress. Its low barrier height enables sub-400 mV conduction at rated current while maintaining 20 V reverse blocking capability.
Thermal design relies on solder-point conduction (Rth(j-sp) = 210 K/W) rather than ambient convection due to its ultra-small SOD323 footprint. Reverse leakage rises significantly above 85 °C, requiring derating in high-temperature ambient deployments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 20 V - Maximum continuous reverse bias before breakdown; defines safe operating ceiling in clamping and reverse polarity circuits. |
| Forward Current (IF) | 0.5 A - Continuous DC current rating; sets maximum steady-state power delivery without thermal runaway. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 355–390 mV @ 500 mA - Directly determines conduction loss (Pcond ≈ 0.18–0.20 W); critical for efficiency in battery-powered systems. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 40–200 µA @ 20 V - Defines leakage-induced standby power loss; impacts battery drain in always-on applications. |
| Junction-to-Ambient Rth | 450 K/W - Limits power dissipation to ~110 mW at ΔT = 50 K; requires PCB copper area optimization for thermal management. |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 66–80 pF @ 1 V - Affects high-frequency switching noise and EMI in DC/DC feedback paths and snubber networks. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in SOD323 (SC-76) plastic surface-mount package: 1.7 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm body, 1.3 mm lead pitch, single-sided FR4 mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to higher-potential node in forward conduction; primary heat path to PCB via cathode pad (Rth(j-sp) = 210 K/W). |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to lower-potential node; carries full forward current; minimal thermal contribution compared to cathode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring integration | Prevents premature edge breakdown under mechanical or thermal stress-enables reliable operation in space-constrained consumer PCBs. |
| Ultra-low forward voltage | VF ≤ 390 mV @ 500 mA reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. standard Schottkys, extending battery runtime in portable devices. |
| High surge current rating | IFSM = 10 A (8 ms) supports robust inrush handling in USB-powered peripherals and hot-swap interfaces. |
| SOD323 footprint compatibility | Standardized 1.3 mm pitch allows drop-in replacement in legacy designs using JEDEC MO-203-AB compliant layouts. |
Applications
| USB Power Delivery Protection | Wearable Device DC/DC Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Prevents damage from reversed USB cable insertion in portable chargers and power banks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current gate placed between USB connector and input capacitor bank. Use Value: 355 mV VF limits voltage drop to <0.4 V at 500 mA, preserving input regulation margin for downstream buck converters. |
Use Scenario: Rectifies output of miniature boost converter powering OLED displays in smartwatches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-loss freewheeling path during switch-off phase of inductive energy transfer. Use Value: 66–80 pF capacitance minimizes switching node ringing, reducing conducted EMI in RF-sensitive wearable environments. |
| IoT Sensor Node Polarity Clamp | Low-Power Industrial Controller Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Protects 3.3 V supply rail of BLE-enabled environmental sensors from accidental reverse-battery connection. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-blocking element in series with main power path; conducts only during fault condition. Use Value: 40 µA max IR at 25 °C ensures <13 nW standby leakage-critical for multi-year battery life in sealed sensor enclosures. |
Use Scenario: Clamps transients on 24 V auxiliary input of programmable logic controllers during field wiring. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-response clamp diode shunting inductive kickback from solenoid drivers. Use Value: 10 A IFSM withstands repetitive 24 V/100 ms surges without degradation-verified per IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RB520S-30T1G (ON Semiconductor) | 30 V VR, 200 mV higher VF (typ. 550 mV @ 500 mA), same SOD-323 package | Higher reverse margin suits 24 V industrial inputs but sacrifices efficiency in 3.3/5 V battery systems | Select when reverse voltage headroom >10 V is required and VF penalty is acceptable |
| NSR0230HT1G (onsemi) | 30 V VR, 0.2 A IF, 370 mV VF @ 200 mA, smaller die size | Limited current rating restricts use to signal-level clamping or micro-power bias networks | Only suitable for sub-200 mA loads where footprint and cost outweigh current capability needs |
Compared with RB520S-30T1G and NSR0230HT1G, PMEG2005AEAF delivers optimal balance of low VF, 20 V rating, and 0.5 A capacity in SOD323-making it preferred for space-constrained 5 V/0.5 A DC/DC stages where efficiency and thermal density are co-critical.

FAQ
Is PMEG2005AEAF qualified for automotive applications?
No. Per Nexperia's revision history, PMEG2005AEAF was explicitly changed to non-automotive qualification in January 2023. It lacks AEC-Q101 testing and is not recommended for under-hood or safety-critical vehicle systems. Automotive alternatives must be selected from Nexperia's -Q qualified portfolio, such as PMEG2005AEL.
What is the maximum allowable PCB temperature rise for continuous 0.5 A operation?
At 0.5 A and 390 mV VF, power dissipation is 195 mW. With Rth(j-a) = 450 K/W, junction temperature rise is 88 K above ambient. To stay within Tj ≤ 150 °C, PCB ambient must remain ≤ 62 °C-requiring ≥1 cm² cathode copper pour per IPC-2221B Class B guidelines.
Does the guard ring affect solder joint reliability or reflow profile?
No. The guard ring is a monolithic silicon feature internal to the die; it does not alter package metallurgy or thermal mass. Standard SOD323 reflow profiles apply-peak temperature 260 °C, time above 217 °C ≤ 60 s-as validated in Nexperia's Figure 5 footprint documentation.
Can PMEG2005AEAF replace BAT54-type diodes in existing designs?
Yes, with verification. Both use SOD323 and share anode/cathode pinout, but PMEG2005AEAF offers 20 V VR vs. BAT54's 30 V and lower VF (390 mV vs. ~450 mV). Designers must confirm reverse voltage margin suffices and validate thermal performance under identical layout conditions.
