Product details
Overview
PMEG6020EXE from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier in CFP3-HP (SOD123HP) package, rated for 60 V reverse voltage and 2 A average forward current, with typical forward voltage of 580 mV at 2 A and 25 °C. It delivers low leakage (25 µA at 60 V, 25 °C), high surge robustness (50 A IFSM), and optimized thermal performance via exposed cathode heatsink - deployed in SMPS output rectification and reverse polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG6020EXE datasheet, PMEG6020EXE pinout, PMEG6020EXE application, or PMEG6020EXE equivalent, key selection criteria include forward voltage vs. temperature stability, junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance (6 K/W), reverse recovery charge (2.5 nC), and SOD123HP footprint compatibility with high-density DC/DC layouts.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a planar metal–semiconductor junction to achieve near-zero reverse recovery time (<4 ns step recovery) and minimal switching losses - critical for high-frequency (>20 kHz square-wave) operation in synchronous and non-synchronous buck converters. Its clip-bond construction enhances power handling and thermal transfer from junction to solder point.
The device operates across –40 °C to 175 °C junction temperature, with reverse current tightly controlled (≤50 mA at 125 °C, 60 V) and forward voltage exhibiting low positive temperature coefficient - enabling stable parallel operation and predictable thermal derating on FR4 PCBs with standard or 1 cm² cathode pads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR | 60 V maximum reverse voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 48 V bus and PoE applications. |
| IF(AV) | 2 A average forward current at δ = 0.5, 20 kHz, Tsp ≤ 167 °C - supports continuous conduction mode in compact 10–30 W SMPS designs. |
| VF | 580–650 mV at IF = 2 A, 25 °C - enables >92 % efficiency in 5 V/2 A output stages with minimal conduction loss. |
| IR | 25–60 µA at VR = 60 V, 25 °C - ensures negligible standby leakage in battery-powered reverse protection. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 6 K/W junction-to-solder-point - allows direct thermal coupling to copper pour, reducing thermal impedance by 85 % vs. standard SOD123. |
| Qrr | 2.5 nC reverse recovery charge - minimizes switching loss and EMI in 500 kHz–1 MHz DC/DC converters. |
| IFSМ | 50 A non-repetitive peak forward current (tp = 8.3 ms) - withstands inrush and fault transients without bond wire failure. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in CFP3-HP (SOD123HP) surface-mount package: 2.80 mm × 1.80 mm × 0.90 mm body with exposed cathode pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. Standard footprint per Nexperia Figure 16 (23-11-29), including 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm solder land and 0.1 mm stencil thickness recommendation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current exit terminal; marked with bar; electrically and thermally connected to exposed copper pad - primary heat path to PCB. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Current entry terminal; smaller top-side metallization; requires minimal trace width due to low VF and absence of minority-carrier storage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low forward voltage | 580 mV typ. @ 2 A, 25 °C - reduces conduction loss by ≥30 % vs. comparable 60 V Si diodes in 5–12 V outputs. |
| Exposed cathode heatsink | 6 K/W Rth(j-sp) - enables 1.3 W power dissipation at Tamb = 25 °C with 1 cm² pad, doubling thermal capacity vs. SOD123. |
| High surge current robustness | 50 A IFSM (8.3 ms half-sine) - sustains repeated cold-start surges in industrial 24 V supplies without parameter shift. |
| Low reverse recovery charge | 2.5 nC Qrr - cuts switching loss by >70 % vs. fast recovery diodes in 1 MHz buck regulators. |
| Stable high-temp leakage | 50 mA IR max @ 125 °C, 60 V - maintains reverse blocking integrity in under-hood or enclosed power modules. |
Applications
| SMPS Secondary Rectification | Reverse Polarity Protection |
|---|---|

Use Value: Stable VF over –40 to 85 °C ambient ensures consistent dropout (<700 mV) across clinical operating range. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VS-2EDH06HM3/85A | Same 60 V/2 A rating but TO-277A package; VF = 620 mV @ 2 A; Rth(j-a) = 45 K/W (no exposed pad). | Larger footprint; unsuitable for ultra-thin or high-density layouts where SOD123HP height < 0.9 mm is mandatory. | Select when board-level thermal mass is available and manual rework accessibility is prioritized over miniaturization. |
| ON Semiconductor NSR2060HT1G | SOD-123 package (not HP); VF = 600 mV @ 2 A; Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W; IFSM = 30 A. | No exposed heatsink; 100 % higher thermal resistance limits power density in >1.5 W continuous operation. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-power (<1 W avg) applications where thermal margin exceeds 40 °C. |
Compared with VS-2EDH06HM3/85A and NSR2060HT1G, PMEG6020EXE uniquely combines SOD123HP's 0.9 mm profile, 6 K/W thermal resistance, and 50 A surge rating - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 2–3 A DC/DC outputs where thermal headroom and transient immunity are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature for PMEG6020EXE during reflow?
The absolute maximum solder point temperature is not explicitly specified, but the device is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per J-STD-020. Thermal characteristics assume Tsp ≤ 167 °C for IF(AV) = 2 A operation. Peak reflow temperature must remain within JEDEC Level 2a limits (260 °C max, 20–40 s above 220 °C) to avoid delamination or bond degradation.
Can PMEG6020EXE be used in parallel for higher current handling?
Yes - its positive VF temperature coefficient (VF increases with junction temperature) promotes natural current sharing. Derate total IF(AV) by 15 % per additional device beyond two, and ensure matched PCB copper area and trace length to minimize thermal imbalance. Do not exceed 175 °C maximum junction temperature.
Is PMEG6020EXE automotive-qualified?
No - this part is not AEC-Q101 qualified. Nexperia explicitly states in Section 15 that non-automotive qualified products like PMEG6020EXE are not tested or warranted for automotive use. For automotive applications, select Nexperia's AEC-Q101-certified equivalents such as PMEG6020CPA or PMEG6020ER.
How does the CFP3-HP package improve thermal performance over standard SOD-123?
The CFP3-HP exposes the cathode metal directly beneath the package, reducing Rth(j-sp) to 6 K/W - 50 % lower than typical SOD-123 (12 K/W). This allows 1.3 W power dissipation at 25 °C ambient with a 1 cm² pad, versus ~0.75 W for standard SOD-123 under identical conditions, enabling higher power density without forced cooling.
