Product details
Overview
PMEG6020ER,115 from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier with integrated guard ring for stress protection, designed for low-voltage, high-efficiency DC-to-DC conversion and reverse polarity protection. It delivers 2 A average forward current at 60 V reverse voltage, with a typical forward voltage of 460 mV at 2 A and 25 °C, housed in a compact SOD123W (CFP3) surface-mount package.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG6020ER,115 datasheet, PMEG6020ER,115 pinout, PMEG6020ER,115 application, or PMEG6020ER,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include low VF performance under 2 A load, thermal resistance to solder point (18 K/W), reverse leakage <150 µA at 60 V, and compatibility with FR4 and ceramic PCB mounting configurations.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses clip-bond technology to enhance power capability and thermal performance, enabling stable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature. Its guard ring structure improves robustness against electrical overstress and transient voltage spikes during switching transitions.
The device exhibits low diode capacitance (240 pF at 1 V, 80 pF at 10 V, f = 1 MHz), supporting high-frequency SMPS topologies. Reverse current remains below 150 µA at rated 60 V and 25 °C, with strong temperature dependence - dropping to ~2.5 µA at −40 °C and rising to ~10⁻⁴ A at 125 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IF(AV) | 2 A average forward current - supports continuous 2 A DC or pulsed loads with 50% duty cycle at 20 kHz on standard FR4 PCB. |
| VR | 60 V reverse voltage - suitable for 48 V bus systems with margin for transient overshoot in industrial and telecom power supplies. |
| VF @ 2 A, 25 °C | 460–530 mV - enables >92% efficiency in 5 V–12 V output buck converters by minimizing conduction loss. |
| IR @ 60 V, 25 °C | 60–150 µA - low leakage preserves standby power in battery-powered applications and low-power consumption systems. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 18 K/W - low thermal resistance from junction to cathode solder point enables direct heat path to PCB copper, critical for compact designs. |
| Cd @ 1 V, 1 MHz | 240 pF - limits switching loss and EMI in high-frequency (>500 kHz) SMPS while maintaining fast recovery. |
| IFSM | 50 A non-repetitive peak forward current (tp = 8.3 ms, half-sine) - withstands inrush and fault currents in protected power rails. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in a SOD123W (CFP3) plastic surface-mount package measuring 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm, with flat leads optimized for automated assembly and thermal transfer via cathode pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (marked with bar) | Cathode (K) | Negative terminal; marking bar identifies cathode; connects to ground or return path; primary thermal interface via large copper pad. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Positive input terminal; carries forward current into load; smaller thermal contribution than cathode due to clip-bond architecture. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated guard ring | Enhances ESD and surge immunity without external components, improving reliability in noisy industrial environments. |
| Clip-bond construction | Reduces bond wire inductance and increases current-carrying cross-section, lowering VF and improving thermal dissipation vs. wire-bonded equivalents. |
| SOD123W footprint | Enables high-density PCB layouts with 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm body size and standardized reflow stencil (0.1 mm thickness recommended). |
| Low Rth(j-a) on ceramic PCB | 220 K/W on Al₂O₃ - allows operation at full 2 A load in space-constrained, thermally demanding applications like PoE injectors. |
| Non-automotive qualification | Optimized for industrial, consumer, and telecom power supplies; automotive-grade alternatives require explicit -Q suffix variants. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Reverse Polarity Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in 5 V/3.3 V buck converters for FPGA or microcontroller power rails. IC Role / Device Role: Low-loss freewheeling diode replacing MOSFET gate drive complexity in cost-sensitive designs. Use Value: 460 mV VF reduces conduction loss by ~35% vs. standard silicon diodes, directly improving light-load efficiency and thermal margin. |
Use Scenario: Input protection for USB-C PD adapters and portable battery packs exposed to accidental reverse connection. IC Role / Device Role: Series-connected anode-to-input, cathode-to-load, blocking reverse current flow. Use Value: 60 µA max IR at 25 °C ensures <1 µW standby power penalty, preserving battery life over months of storage. |
| 48 V Telecom Rectification | Low-Power IoT Node Supply |
Use Scenario: OR-ing diode in redundant 48 V intermediate bus architectures for base station power distribution. IC Role / Device Role: Forward-biased path selector preventing backfeed between parallel PSUs. Use Value: 2 A IF(AV) rating and 50 A IFSM support hot-swap events and transient overload without derating. |
Use Scenario: Output rectification in ultra-low-quiescent-current linear regulators powering BLE/Wi-Fi sensors. IC Role / Device Role: Isolation diode between energy harvesting source (e.g., solar cell) and rechargeable Li-ion cell. Use Value: Sub-150 µA IR prevents self-discharge of storage elements, extending maintenance-free operation to >1 year. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSS40201MZ4T1G | Same 60 V VR, 2 A IF(AV), but VF = 520–600 mV @ 2 A; SOD-123 package (not SOD123W); Rth(j-a) = 250 K/W on FR4. | Larger VF increases conduction loss by ~13%; less effective thermal coupling limits sustained 2 A operation on thin PCBs. | Select when legacy SOD-123 footprint compatibility is required and thermal headroom exceeds 10 °C. |
| Vishay SS26HE3/5AT | 60 V VR, 2 A IF(AV), VF = 550–650 mV @ 2 A; SMA package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm); higher Cd = 120 pF @ 4 V. | 3× larger footprint consumes board area; higher VF degrades efficiency in battery-fed systems; higher capacitance increases EMI risk. | Prefer only where existing SMA layout prohibits SOD123W adoption and efficiency loss is acceptable. |
Compared with NSS40201MZ4T1G and SS26HE3/5AT, PMEG6020ER,115 delivers the lowest VF and best thermal performance in its class, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 48 V and sub-12 V power rails where thermal management and standby current are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum ambient temperature for continuous 2 A operation on FR4 PCB?
At δ = 0.5 (50% duty cycle, 20 kHz square wave), PMEG6020ER,115 supports 2 A average forward current up to 75 °C ambient temperature on standard FR4 with single-sided copper. Derating begins above this point, reaching 1.5 A at 100 °C ambient per Figure 9.
Does PMEG6020ER,115 have automotive qualification?
No. Per Nexperia's revision history (v.3, Jan 2023), PMEG6020ER,115 is explicitly designated as non-automotive qualified. Automotive applications require the -Q variant (e.g., PMEG6020ER-Q), which undergoes AEC-Q101 stress testing and has different qualification documentation.
How does the guard ring improve reliability?
The integrated guard ring mitigates edge breakdown under high electric field stress, increasing the device's resistance to EOS and ESD events. This extends operational lifetime in environments with frequent voltage transients, such as industrial motor drives and PoE-powered equipment.
What is the recommended reflow stencil thickness for SOD123W assembly?
Nexperia specifies a recommended stencil thickness of 0.1 mm for reflow soldering of the SOD123W package. This ensures optimal solder paste volume for reliable joint formation while avoiding bridging or insufficient wetting on the 1.1 mm × 1.1 mm cathode and 1.2 mm × 1.4 mm anode pads.
