Product details
Overview
PMEG6030EXE from Nexperia is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier in CFP3-HP (SOD123HP) package, designed for low-loss unidirectional current conduction in high-efficiency DC/DC converters and SMPS outputs. It delivers 3 A average forward current at ≤162 °C solder point temperature, with 670–760 mV forward voltage at 3 A and 25–60 µA reverse leakage at 60 V and 25 °C.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG6030EXE datasheet, PMEG6030EXE pinout, PMEG6030EXE application, or PMEG6030EXE equivalent, this device is selected for low-voltage rectification where thermal performance, surge robustness (50 A IFSM), and clip-bonded thermal path to PCB are critical design factors.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses a planar metal–semiconductor junction optimized for minimal forward voltage drop and fast switching with negligible reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 2.5 nC). Its clip-bond construction directly connects the cathode to an exposed heatsink pad, enabling Rth(j-sp) as low as 6 K/W when mounted on a 1 cm² copper pad.
The device operates up to 175 °C junction temperature and supports duty cycles from δ = 0.1 to 1.0, with average forward current derating governed by solder point temperature (Tsp) - e.g., 3 A at Tsp ≤ 162 °C (δ = 0.5, 20 kHz square wave).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR | 60 V reverse voltage rating - defines maximum blocking capability in reverse bias without breakdown |
| IF(AV) | 3 A average forward current - sustainable continuous conduction under δ = 0.5, 20 kHz square wave, Tsp ≤ 162 °C |
| VF @ 3 A | 670–760 mV at 25 °C - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at full load in 5 V output rails |
| IR @ 60 V, 25 °C | 25–60 µA - low leakage preserves efficiency in standby and light-load conditions |
| IFSM | 50 A non-repetitive peak forward current (tp = 8.3 ms) - withstands inrush and transient surges in power supplies |
| Rth(j-sp) | 6 K/W - thermal resistance from junction to cathode solder point with 1 cm² copper pad, enabling direct thermal coupling to PCB |
| trr | 4 ns step recovery - near-zero reverse recovery time eliminates switching losses in high-frequency SMPS |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in CFP3-HP (SOD123HP) surface-mount plastic package: 2.80 mm × 1.80 mm × 0.90 mm body with exposed cathode heatsink pad. Standard footprint per Figure 16 (Nexperia doc 23-11-29), recommended stencil thickness 0.1 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current exit terminal; marked with bar; electrically and thermally connected to exposed heatsink pad |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Main current entry terminal; smaller pad area; not thermally enhanced |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Clip bond construction | Direct copper clip interconnect between die cathode and exposed pad - reduces Rth(j-sp) to 6 K/W and improves surge current handling |
| Low VF at high IF | 670–760 mV @ 3 A, 25 °C - minimizes conduction loss in 3.3 V/5 V output stages of buck converters |
| Ultra-low Qrr | 2.5 nC - eliminates reverse recovery loss and EMI in >500 kHz switching topologies |
| High Tj rating | 175 °C max junction temperature - supports operation in compact, sealed, or high-ambient environments |
| Robust IFSM | 50 A peak surge (8.3 ms half-sine) - survives cold-start inrush in industrial 24 V input supplies |
Applications
| Server VRM Output Rectification | USB-C PD Adapter Secondary Side |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-current, high-frequency synchronous rectification in 12 V → 1.2 V server VRMs operating at 1 MHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-VF Schottky rectifier replacing MOSFETs in secondary-side synchronous rectification stage. Use Value: 670 mV VF at 3 A reduces conduction loss by ~35% vs. comparable 45 V Schottkys, improving full-load efficiency by 0.8–1.2%. |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 20 V input, 5–20 V output USB-C PD adapters with 300–600 kHz flyback topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary output rectifier handling up to 3 A average current with minimal thermal rise. Use Value: 6 K/W Rth(j-sp) enables stable operation at 85 °C ambient without heatsink, reducing bill-of-materials cost. |
| Industrial PLC Power Supply | Reverse Polarity Protection Circuit |
Use Scenario: 24 V DC input filtering and rectification in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controller power modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage Schottky rectifier in bridgeless PFC front-end or auxiliary supply winding rectification. Use Value: 50 A IFSM withstands repeated motor startup surges; 175 °C Tj rating ensures reliability in enclosed cabinets. |
Use Scenario: Low-loss polarity guard in battery-powered IoT sensors and handheld test equipment with Li-ion inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-connected cathode-to-load Schottky diode preventing damage during accidental reverse battery insertion. Use Value: 25 µA IR at 25 °C limits standby drain to <1 µA per protection path, extending shelf life beyond 12 months. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay VSSAF360-M3/5AT | Same 60 V VR, 3 A IF(AV), but SOD123 package (not CFP3-HP); Rth(j-a) = 220 K/W vs. 115 K/W for PMEG6030EXE | Lacks clip bond and exposed heatsink - unsuitable for >1.5 A continuous in FR4 without thermal relief | Select when board space is constrained and thermal budget allows higher junction rise |
| ON Semiconductor NSR3060HT1G | 60 V VR, 3 A IF(AV), SOD123 package; VF = 650 mV typ @ 3 A, but IR = 100 µA @ 60 V - 2× higher leakage | Higher IR degrades light-load efficiency in always-on battery systems | Select only if VF priority outweighs leakage sensitivity and thermal performance is secondary |
Compared with VSSAF360-M3/5AT and NSR3060HT1G, PMEG6030EXE provides superior thermal coupling (6 K/W Rth(j-sp)), lower leakage (25 µA), and higher surge robustness (50 A IFSM), making it optimal for thermally demanding, high-reliability SMPS designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable solder point temperature for continuous operation?
The PMEG6030EXE supports continuous operation with solder point temperature (Tsp) ≤ 162 °C at δ = 0.5, 20 kHz square wave, delivering its rated 3 A IF(AV). Exceeding this limit requires derating per Figure 10 in the datasheet; at Tsp = 175 °C, IF(AV) drops to approximately 2.2 A.
Does PMEG6030EXE have a specified reverse recovery time (trr) for ramp recovery?
Yes - trr is specified as 6 ns under ramp recovery conditions (dIF/dt = 200 A/µs, IF = 6 A, VR = 26 V, Tj = 25 °C). This value reflects the device's ultra-fast switching behavior, critical for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency topologies above 300 kHz.
Can PMEG6030EXE be used in automotive applications?
No - PMEG6030EXE is not AEC-Q200 qualified and is explicitly designated as non-automotive in Nexperia's legal disclaimers. It lacks automotive-grade screening, extended temperature validation, and failure-in-time (FIT) data required for vehicle subsystems.
How does the CFP3-HP package improve thermal performance over standard SOD123?
The CFP3-HP package integrates a copper clip that bonds the cathode die directly to an exposed thermal pad, achieving Rth(j-sp) = 6 K/W with a 1 cm² copper pad - nearly 2× better than standard SOD123 packages (typically >10 K/W) and enabling 30–40% higher power density in thermally constrained layouts.
