Product details
Overview
PMEG60T20ELXD-QX from Nexperia is a 60 V, 2 A trench Schottky barrier rectifier in CFP2-HP (SOD323HP) package, designed for high-efficiency DC-to-DC conversion and automotive LED lighting. It delivers low forward voltage (635–700 mV at 2 A, 25 °C), ultra-low reverse leakage (0.1 µA at 60 V, 25 °C), and qualified AEC-Q101 reliability for under-hood applications.
For engineers reviewing the PMEG60T20ELXD-QX datasheet, PMEG60T20ELXD-QX pinout, PMEG60T20ELXD-QX application, or PMEG60T20ELXD-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance to solder point (6 K/W), reverse recovery charge (1.5 nC), junction temperature rating (175 °C), and clip-bonded power flat lead construction enabling stable operation in space-constrained automotive power rails.
Technical Context
This Schottky rectifier uses trench MOS-based anode geometry to reduce forward voltage while maintaining low Qrr and IRM - critical for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency SMPS and OR-ing circuits. Its cathode-exposed thermal pad enables direct PCB heat sinking with Rth(j-sp) = 6 K/W when mounted on a 1 cm² copper pad.
The device operates across -55 °C to 175 °C ambient, with derated reverse voltage down to 40 V at Tj = 150 °C. Reverse recovery is step-type (trr = 4.5 ns), and diode capacitance is 210 pF at 1 V, supporting fast transient response in freewheeling and polarity protection topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 60 V - Maximum blocking capability at 25 °C; derates to 40 V at 150 °C junction temperature. |
| Average Forward Current (IF(AV)) | 2 A - Sustained DC or pulsed average current with 50% duty cycle at Tsp ≤ 166 °C. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 635–700 mV - Measured at 2 A, pulsed, 25 °C; enables <1.4 W conduction loss at full load. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.15–0.55 mA - At 60 V, 125 °C; ensures minimal standby power loss in reverse-polarity protection. |
| Reverse Recovery Charge (Qrr) | 1.5 nC - Low stored charge reduces turn-off losses in synchronous rectification and OR-ing. |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-sp)) | 6 K/W - Junction-to-solder-point value with 1 cm² cathode pad; enables efficient heat transfer to PCB. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 175 °C - Maximum allowable operating junction temperature; supports under-hood automotive use. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in CFP2-HP (SOD323HP): 2.2 mm × 1.3 mm × 0.68 mm surface-mount plastic package with exposed cathode thermal pad and solderable lead ends.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current return path and primary thermal interface; exposed metal tab for direct PCB heat sinking. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Input terminal for forward conduction; connects to input rail in freewheeling or reverse polarity protection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench Schottky architecture | Reduces VF by ~15% vs planar Schottky at 2 A while retaining low Qrr and IRM. |
| Clip-bonding technology | Eliminates wire bonds to increase current handling (IFSM = 35 A) and thermal robustness. |
| Exposed cathode heatsink | Enables Rth(j-sp) = 6 K/W - 4× lower than standard SOD323, critical for compact automotive modules. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling per AEC stress test protocol. |
| Low Qrr & fast trr | 1.5 nC Qrr and 4.5 ns trr minimize switching losses in 500 kHz+ DC/DC converters. |
Applications
| Automotive LED Headlamp Driver | High-Density DC/DC Converter |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS2L60 | Same 60 V/2 A rating but TO-277 package; higher Rth(j-a) (40 K/W vs 230 K/W); no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Not suitable for space-constrained automotive PCBs; requires external heatsink for >1 A continuous operation. | Select only if board layout allows larger footprint and AEC compliance is not required. |
| RB055LAM-60 | Lower VF (550 mV typ) but 1.5 A rating; SOD-123FL package; Rth(j-sp) = 15 K/W; AEC-Q101 qualified. | Limited to sub-1.5 A loads; insufficient for 2 A LED driver peak currents; less thermal margin in high-temp environments. | Acceptable only for lower-current automotive sensors where VF priority outweighs current capacity. |
Compared with STPS2L60 and RB055LAM-60, PMEG60T20ELXD-QX uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 2 A continuous rating, and 6 K/W thermal resistance in a 2.2 mm × 1.3 mm footprint-enabling single-device solutions in thermally dense automotive power modules without derating or auxiliary cooling.

FAQ
Is PMEG60T20ELXD-QX suitable for reflow soldering on FR4 PCBs?
Yes. The CFP2-HP package is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020). Recommended footprint uses a 1 cm² cathode thermal pad with 0.1 mm stencil thickness for optimal solder paste volume and void minimization. Thermal performance data assumes tin-plated FR4 with single-sided copper.
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak forward current (IFSM) and under what conditions?
IFSM is 35 A, specified for a single half-sine wave pulse of 8.3 ms duration with initial junction temperature at 25 °C. This rating supports surge immunity during cold-crank or load-dump events in automotive 12 V systems without device failure.
How does the clip-bonding technology improve reliability versus wire-bonded Schottky diodes?
Clip-bonding replaces aluminum wires with a copper clip connecting die to lead frame, reducing parasitic inductance by >50%, increasing current-carrying capacity, and eliminating bond-wire fatigue failure modes. This yields 3× longer lifetime under thermal cycling and 2× higher IFSM capability.
Can PMEG60T20ELXD-QX be used in bidirectional current paths such as active OR-ing controllers?
No. As a unidirectional Schottky rectifier, it conducts only from anode to cathode. For active OR-ing, it serves only as the passive backup path; the main current path requires a controlled MOSFET switch. Its low VF and fast trr make it ideal for fail-safe redundancy, not bidirectional conduction.
