Product details
Overview
PMEG4005AEAF from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier with integrated guard ring for stress protection, rated at 40 V reverse voltage and 0.5 A forward current, featuring a typical forward voltage of 420 mV at 500 mA and reverse leakage of 30 µA at 40 V - deployed in low-voltage DC/DC converters and polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG4005AEAF datasheet, PMEG4005AEAF pinout, PMEG4005AEAF application, or PMEG4005AEAF equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low VF performance, SOD323 package thermal resistance (Rth(j-sp) = 210 K/W), surge current capability (IFSM = 10 A), and cathode-marked anode-cathode polarity alignment.
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 barrier height enables VF as low as 420 mV at 500 mA while maintaining 40 V VR rating and 100 µA max IR at full reverse bias.
Thermal design relies on junction-to-solder-point resistance of 210 K/W on FR4 with 1 cm² cathode pad, enabling stable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature. Capacitance is 43–50 pF at 1 V reverse bias, supporting high-frequency switching in compact power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 40 V - supports input rails up to 36 V nominal systems with margin against transients |
| Forward Current (IF) | 0.5 A continuous - suitable for point-of-load converters and auxiliary supply paths |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 420 mV typ. @ 500 mA - reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. standard silicon diodes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 30 µA max @ 40 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in battery-sensitive designs |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 43 pF typ. @ 1 V - enables efficient operation in 1–5 MHz DC/DC topologies |
| Surge Current (IFSM) | 10 A @ 8 ms - withstands inrush and fault currents without degradation |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C max - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RB520S-40T1G | Higher VF (450 mV typ.), same 40 V/0.5 A rating, SOD-523 package (smaller, 1.2 × 0.8 mm) | Less thermal mass; Rth(j-a) = 500 K/W limits continuous use above 200 mA | Select for space-constrained designs where peak current < 200 mA and board area is premium |
| NSR0540HT1G | Lower VF (370 mV typ.), same 40 V rating, but IF = 0.4 A and higher IR (100 µA) | Higher leakage increases standby loss in always-on IoT nodes | Select when lowest possible conduction loss dominates over leakage in pulsed-duty applications |
Compared with RB520S-40T1G and NSR0540HT1G, PMEG4005AEAF delivers optimal balance of ultra-low VF (420 mV), low IR (30 µA), and robust thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 210 K/W), making it preferred for continuous 0.5 A loads in thermally constrained industrial and portable systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature profile for PMEG4005AEAF?
The device is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature of 260 °C for ≤30 seconds. Figure 5 specifies the recommended solder land pattern: 0.6 mm × 0.5 mm pads with 1.35 mm center-to-center spacing and 0.4 mm solder mask opening.
Does PMEG4005AEAF have AEC-Q200 qualification?
No - PMEG4005AEAF is not AEC-Q200 qualified. It is specified for industrial and commercial applications only. For automotive use, Nexperia offers the AEC-Q200-qualified PMEG4005AEB variant with identical electrical specs and enhanced test screening.
How does the guard ring affect reverse recovery behavior?
The integrated guard ring suppresses edge avalanche, eliminating minority-carrier injection and ensuring true zero reverse recovery time (trr = 0 ns). This eliminates switching losses and EMI associated with conventional PN diodes in high-frequency SMPS.
Can PMEG4005AEAF be used in parallel for higher current?
Not recommended without external balancing - forward voltage mismatch (±50 mV) between units causes current sharing imbalance. For >0.5 A, select a single higher-rated device such as PMEG6005AEA (60 V/0.5 A) or PMEG3015AEA (30 V/1.5 A) with matched VF binning.
