Product details
Overview
PMEG6030ETPX from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier with integrated guard ring for stress protection, rated for 60 V reverse voltage and 3 A average forward current in a SOD128 (CFP5) surface-mount package. It delivers low forward voltage (460–530 mV at 3 A, 25 °C), operates up to 175 °C junction temperature, and supports reflow and wave soldering - deployed in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and reverse polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG6030ETPX datasheet, PMEG6030ETPX pinout, PMEG6030ETPX application, or PMEG6030ETPX equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (12 K/W junction-to-solder point), pulsed reverse current (80–200 µA at 60 V), reverse recovery time (12 ns), diode capacitance (360 pF at 1 V), and clip-bonded construction enabling high power capability in compact SMD form.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a planar die structure with an integrated guard ring to enhance ruggedness against electrical overstress and improve reliability under transient conditions. Its low VF and absence of minority-carrier storage enable fast switching with trr = 12 ns and negligible reverse recovery charge.
The CFP5 (SOD128) package employs clip-bonding technology to reduce thermal resistance - Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W - and supports high ambient operation up to 175 °C via optimized cathode tab thermal path. Reverse leakage remains controlled across temperature: IR = 0.5–10 µA at −40 °C and 45–150 mA at 125 °C (60 V, pulsed).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 60 V - Maximum blocking capability without breakdown; suitable for 48 V system rail protection and SMPS secondary-side rectification. |
| Average Forward Current (IF(AV)) | 3 A - Sustained DC or square-wave current handling at Tsp ≤ 165 °C; enables compact high-current rectification in space-constrained layouts. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 460–530 mV @ 3 A, 25 °C - Low conduction loss improves efficiency in low-voltage, high-current paths such as POL converters. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | 12 ns - Enables high-frequency switching (>1 MHz) with minimal switching loss and EMI generation. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175 °C - Extended thermal rating allows operation in harsh environments (e.g., automotive under-hood, industrial motor drives) without derating. |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-sp)) | 12 K/W - Low junction-to-solder-point resistance ensures efficient heat transfer to PCB copper, critical for sustained 3 A operation on FR4. |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 360 pF @ 1 V - Low capacitance minimizes AC coupling and ringing in high-speed switching nodes. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in a SOD128 (CFP5) plastic surface-mount package measuring 3.8 mm × 2.6 mm × 1.0 mm, with 4 mm lead pitch and flat leads optimized for automated assembly and thermal performance. The cathode is marked by a bar on the device top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Output terminal for forward conduction; connected to PCB thermal pad for heat dissipation and low-inductance return path. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Input terminal for forward bias; electrically isolated from thermal pad; defines current entry point in rectification path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated guard ring | Enhances ESD and surge robustness by controlling electric field distribution at edge termination - critical for reliability in unregulated input stages. |
| Clip-bonding technology | Reduces bond wire inductance and thermal resistance, enabling higher current density and improved thermal cycling endurance vs. wire-bonded equivalents. |
| Reflow/wave solder compatible | Qualified per J-STD-020 and JEDEC J-STD-006 - eliminates process restrictions during high-volume manufacturing. |
| High-temperature operation | Rated for continuous operation at Tj = 175 °C - eliminates need for oversized heatsinking in thermally constrained enclosures. |
Applications
| Low-Voltage DC-DC Conversion | Reverse Polarity Protection |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected cathode-to-load configuration; blocks reverse current while passing forward current with minimal drop. Use Value: 3 A IF(AV) rating and 12 ns trr prevent latch-up during hot-plug transients; 175 °C Tj ensures survival during overvoltage fault heating. |
| Switch Mode Power Supply Output | High-Temperature Motor Drive Auxiliary Supply |

Use Scenario: Output rectification in 24 V/48 V offline SMPS for telecom and server PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode in flyback or forward converter secondary winding; clamps inductive kick and recirculates energy. Use Value: 60 V VR provides 20% margin above 48 V nominal rails; low Cd (360 pF) suppresses high-frequency ringing at switching edges. |

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-3EYH06-M3/54 | Same 60 V VR, 3 A IF(AV), but TO-277 package (larger footprint, higher Rth(j-a) = 45 K/W); VF = 520–590 mV @ 3 A. | Less suitable for ultra-thin or high-density layouts; requires larger thermal pad area for equivalent cooling. | Select when board-level mechanical clearance permits larger package and lower-cost procurement is prioritized over thermal density. |
| ON Semiconductor SB360 | SOD-123FL package (smaller, 2.7 × 1.7 mm); VR = 60 V, IF(AV) = 3 A, but VF = 550–650 mV @ 3 A and Tj max = 150 °C. | Limited to ≤150 °C ambient operation; higher VF increases conduction loss by ~150 mW at 3 A vs. PMEG6030ETPX. | Choose only if strict size reduction outweighs thermal and efficiency trade-offs in non-high-temp applications. |
Compared with VS-3EYH06-M3/54 and SB360, PMEG6030ETPX uniquely combines SOD128's compactness with 175 °C rating and lowest VF (460 mV typ), making it optimal for thermally dense, high-reliability 48 V systems where thermal resistance and long-term stability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature during reflow for PMEG6030ETPX?
The device is qualified for standard lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C for ≤30 seconds. The cathode solder point must not exceed 260 °C to avoid delamination or intermetallic degradation; thermal profile validation using the footprint in Figure 19 is recommended.
How does the guard ring affect surge robustness in PMEG6030ETPX?
The integrated guard ring controls electric field crowding at the die edge, raising the effective avalanche threshold and improving resistance to repetitive surge events (e.g., IEC 61000-4-5). This enables reliable operation in unfiltered 24/48 V inputs without external TVS clamping in many cases.
Can PMEG6030ETPX be used in parallel configurations for higher current?
Yes, but with caution: forward voltage matching (±30 mV) and symmetrical PCB layout (equal trace length/width/thermal mass) are required to ensure current sharing. Derate total IF(AV) by 15% versus sum of individual ratings due to thermal coupling effects on FR4 substrates.
What is the significance of Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W in practical thermal design?
Rth(j-sp) measures resistance from junction to cathode solder point - not ambient - enabling accurate modeling of heat flow into the PCB copper. With a 1 cm² cathode pad on FR4, this value allows calculation of actual junction temperature rise (ΔTj = Ptot × 12 K/W) independent of board airflow or enclosure conditions.
