Product details
Overview
PMEG2015EPK-QYL from Nexperia is a 20 V, 1.5 A planar Schottky barrier rectifier in an ultra-small DFN1608D-2 (SOD1608) package with solderable side pads, integrated guard ring for stress protection, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use. It delivers low forward voltage (375–420 mV at 1.5 A), ultra-fast reverse recovery (<5 ns), and low reverse leakage (70–350 µA at 10 V), enabling high-efficiency DC-DC conversion in space-constrained mobile power rails.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG2015EPK-QYL datasheet, PMEG2015EPK-QYL pinout, PMEG2015EPK-QYL application, or PMEG2015EPK-QYL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.37 mm profile, side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection, thermal resistance to solder point (20 K/W), and suitability for reverse polarity protection in 3.3 V/5 V automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode uses a planar junction structure with an integrated guard ring to suppress edge breakdown under transient stress, ensuring robustness in automotive load-dump and cold-crank conditions. Its metal-semiconductor interface enables near-zero reverse recovery charge and eliminates minority-carrier storage delay.
The device operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and is rated for repetitive peak forward current up to 4 A (1 ms pulses) and non-repetitive surges up to 5 A (8 ms), supporting high-duty-cycle switching in synchronous rectifier topologies.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RB050M-40TR | Higher VF (450 mV min @ 1.5 A); larger SOD-123 package (1.6 × 1.6 × 1.0 mm) | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; not recommended for automotive underhood use | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs size/thermal requirements and automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| SS12-AU | Lower IF(AV) (1.0 A); no side-wettable flanks; Rth(j-a) = 250 K/W (vs. 140 K/W typical for PMEG2015EPK-QYL on FR4) | Not qualified to AEC-Q101; unsuitable for automated optical solder inspection | Select only for non-automotive consumer applications where board space and thermal performance are secondary |
Compared with RB050M-40TR and SS12-AU, PMEG2015EPK-QYL provides superior thermal dissipation (20 K/W to solder point), guaranteed automotive qualification, and AOI-compatible packaging-critical for high-reliability, miniaturized power designs where conduction loss and manufacturing yield are tightly coupled.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current for PMEG2015EPK-QYL at 100 °C ambient?
The device supports 1.5 A average forward current (IF(AV)) when mounted on a ceramic PCB (Al₂O₃) with ambient temperature ≤100 °C and duty cycle <0.5 at 20 kHz. Derating applies above 100 °C ambient; full 1.5 A requires ≤140 °C solder point temperature per datasheet Table 1.
Does PMEG2015EPK-QYL require special PCB layout considerations for thermal performance?
Yes. Optimal thermal performance requires a minimum 1 cm² copper pour connected to the cathode (Pin 1) on the PCB layer beneath the device. The datasheet specifies 140 K/W Rth(j-a) on FR4 with this pad, versus 300 K/W without it-making thermal pad design critical for sustained 1.5 A operation.
Can PMEG2015EPK-QYL be used in place of a standard SOD-123 Schottky diode?
No direct footprint replacement is possible: PMEG2015EPK-QYL uses DFN1608D-2 (1.6 × 0.8 mm), while SOD-123 measures 1.6 × 1.6 mm. Though both have two terminals, the side-wettable flanks and 0.37 mm height of PMEG2015EPK-QYL demand revised stencil design, reflow profile, and AOI setup-not just pad geometry changes.
Is the marking code "1100" on PMEG2015EPK-QYL traceable to date code or lot information?
No. Per Nexperia's marking specification (Table 4), "1100" is a fixed binary code identifying the PMEG2015EPK-Q type; date code and lot traceability are encoded separately in the vendor-specific portion of the marking (e.g., "0000" in the example) and require Nexperia's internal decoding protocol-not publicly documented in the datasheet.
