Product details
Overview
PMEG3002AEB-QX from Nexperia is a 30 V, 200 mA planar Schottky barrier diode with integrated guard ring for stress protection, housed in an ultra-small SOD523 (SC-79) package. It delivers a typical forward voltage of 420 mV at 200 mA, reverse leakage under 10 µA at 10 V, and 20–25 pF capacitance at 1 V - optimized for low-loss rectification and polarity protection in space-constrained automotive power rails.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG3002AEB-QX datasheet, PMEG3002AEB-QX pinout, PMEG3002AEB-QX application, or PMEG3002AEB-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 450 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4, low-VF performance across 0.1–200 mA, and cathode-marked SC-79 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Schottky diode uses a planar silicon structure with an integrated guard ring to suppress edge breakdown and improve reliability under transient stress. Its low forward voltage stems from optimized metal-semiconductor interface design, enabling efficient conduction at sub-1 V bias while maintaining stable reverse characteristics up to 30 V.
Thermal performance is defined for free-air and FR4-mounted conditions, with junction temperature limited to 125 °C and storage rated to 150 °C. The device operates with pulsed test conditions (tp ≤ 300 µs, duty cycle δ ≤ 0.02), reflecting its suitability for high-frequency switching rather than continuous DC conduction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 420–480 mV at 200 mA pulse: enables <100 mW conduction loss in 3.3 V/5 V rail clamping and reverse-polarity protection circuits |
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 30 V maximum: supports use in 24 V automotive systems with margin against load-dump transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2.5–10 µA at 10 V: ensures minimal standby current in always-on battery-connected modules |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 20–25 pF at 1 V, 1 MHz: preserves signal integrity in low-voltage data-line clamping applications |
| Junction-to-Ambient Rth | 450 K/W on FR4: defines thermal derating for sustained 150–200 mA operation in unheatsinked layouts |
| Peak Forward Current (IFSM) | 1 A for 8.3 ms half-sine: withstands automotive cold-crank surge events without failure |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD523 (SC-79), plastic surface-mount package measuring 1.2 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.6 mm; marking bar denotes cathode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to lower-potential node; marking bar on package body identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to higher-potential node; forms forward-biased path when anode > cathode by ≥0.42 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guard ring integration | Suppresses edge-related avalanche and improves long-term reliability under repetitive voltage stress |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per discrete semiconductor standard |
| Ultra-low VF across wide current range | 130–480 mV from 0.1 mA to 200 mA: reduces power loss in both standby and active states |
| SOD523 footprint | 1.2 mm × 0.8 mm area: enables placement in tight spaces such as camera modules, ADAS sensors, and infotainment USB ports |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | USB Type-C Port Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Reverse-polarity protection on 12 V supply input to microcontroller-based door lock actuator driver. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional blocking diode preventing damage during battery cable misconnection. Use Value: 420 mV VF limits voltage drop to <0.5% of nominal rail, preserving MCU brown-out margin and reducing heat in sealed enclosure. |

Use Scenario: Isolation diode between coin-cell backup and main Li-ion supply in telematics GPS module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Prevents backfeed from primary battery into backup cell during normal operation. Use Value: 2.5 µA max IR at 3 V extends 220 mAh coin-cell life beyond 10 years in sleep mode. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RB521S-30T2R | Higher VF (450–550 mV @ 200 mA); same SOD-523 package; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Acceptable for industrial consumer power rails but not certified for automotive underhood use | Select only if AEC-Q101 compliance is not required and 30 mV higher VF is tolerable in thermal budget |
| SD103AW-7-F | Lower IF rating (200 mA avg, 500 mA peak); 40 V VR; larger SOD-123 package (3.7 mm × 1.6 mm) | Offers higher voltage margin but occupies >5× board area; unsuitable for ultra-dense layouts | Choose when 40 V rating is mandatory and PCB real estate is not constrained |
Compared with RB521S-30T2R and SD103AW-7-F, PMEG3002AEB-QX uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 30 V/200 mA rating, and SOD523 size - making it the only option qualified for automotive interior electronics where space, reliability, and regulatory compliance are jointly critical.

FAQ
Is PMEG3002AEB-QX suitable for continuous DC operation at 200 mA?
No - the 200 mA rating is specified under pulsed conditions (tp ≤ 300 µs, δ ≤ 0.02). For continuous operation, thermal limits require derating: at 25 °C ambient on FR4, maximum sustainable DC current is ~65 mA to stay within 125 °C junction temperature given its 450 K/W Rth(j-a).
What does the "B1" marking on the device indicate?
The "B1" top-side marking is the manufacturer-specific code for PMEG3002AEB-QX per Nexperia's ordering information table. It is not a date code or lot identifier - it uniquely identifies this diode variant in the SOD523 package with AEC-Q101 qualification and specified electrical parameters.
Can PMEG3002AEB-QX replace a standard PN-junction diode in a 5 V rail clamp?
Yes - its 30 V reverse rating and 420 mV forward voltage provide superior performance versus a typical 1N4148 (VF ≈ 700–1000 mV, VR = 100 V). However, verify that 30 V meets system overvoltage margin requirements, as the lower VR trades off voltage headroom for lower conduction loss.
Does the guard ring affect solder reflow profile requirements?
No - the guard ring is a process-level structural feature and does not alter thermal sensitivity. PMEG3002AEB-QX follows standard JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow guidelines for plastic SMD packages: peak temperature 260 °C, time above 217 °C ≤ 60 seconds, ramp rate ≤ 3 °C/s - matching the SOD523 footprint shown in Figure 6 of the datasheet.
