Product details
Overview
PMPB13XNEA from Nexperia is a 30 V, N-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) package, designed as a low-side load switch with 13 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V and 8 A drain current, AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive use, and featuring side-wettable flanks for optical solder inspection.
For engineers reviewing the PMPB13XNEA datasheet, PMPB13XNEA pinout, PMPB13XNEA application, or PMPB13XNEA equivalent, this device supports high-speed switching in relay drivers and line drivers where low gate charge (24–36 nC), fast switching times (tr = 30 ns, tf = 49 ns), and robust ESD protection (>1 kV HBM) are critical to system reliability and PCB assembly yield.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Trench technology to achieve low on-resistance and stable threshold voltage (0.4–0.9 V) across temperature. Its 6-terminal DFN2020MD-6 package integrates five drain terminals and one source terminal on the bottom side, enabling high-current capability and efficient thermal conduction via the exposed drain pad.
The device operates with gate drive compatibility down to 1.8 V (RDS(on) ≤ 24 mΩ at 3.7 A), supports unclamped avalanche energy of 21.3 mJ, and delivers 12.5 W total power dissipation when mounted on a 6 cm² FR4 copper pad - making it suitable for space-constrained, thermally demanding automotive and industrial switching nodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V maximum drain-source voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 24 V automotive systems. |
| RDS(on) | 13 mΩ typical at VGS = 4.5 V, ID = 8 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <100 mW conduction loss at 8 A. |
| QG(tot) | 24–36 nC total gate charge - determines driver strength requirement and switching efficiency at >100 kHz. |
| tr/tf | 30 ns rise / 49 ns fall time - supports clean, low-EMI transitions in high-speed digital load switching. |
| VGS(th) | 0.65 V typical threshold - ensures reliable turn-on with 1.8 V logic-level microcontrollers. |
| ESD Rating | >1 kV HBM (Class H1C) - eliminates need for external ESD protection in board-level integration. |
| Tj max | 150 °C maximum junction temperature - supports operation in under-hood automotive environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220), 2.0 × 2.0 mm, ultra-thin profile with exposed drain pad and side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection (AOI).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Five parallel drain terminals connected to internal die and exposed copper pad - lowers thermal resistance (Rth(j-sp) = 5–10 K/W) and improves current sharing. |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 2.1 Ω typical gate resistance - matches standard logic-level drivers without external series resistor. |
| 4, 8 | Source (S) | Two source terminals tied to source metallization - provides low-inductance return path and reduces source loop inductance during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) at 1.8 V drive | 24 mΩ max at VGS = 1.8 V, ID = 3.7 A - enables direct interface with low-voltage MCUs and battery-powered controllers. |
| Side-wettable flanks | Exposed copper on package edges - allows automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joint quality without X-ray. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Stress-tested per Automotive Electronics Council standards - validated for mission-critical automotive body electronics and ADAS subsystems. |
| Unclamped avalanche ruggedness | 21.3 mJ at ID = 1.35 A - withstands inductive kickback in relay and solenoid driving without external snubbers. |
| Thermal performance | Rth(j-a) = 235–270 K/W (FR4, standard footprint); Rth(j-sp) = 5–10 K/W (6 cm² drain pad) - enables compact thermal design in dense layouts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel low-side switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3025LSD-13 | Higher RDS(on) (25 mΩ @ 4.5 V), larger SO-8 package, no side-wettable flanks | Lacks AOI support and automotive qualification; suited for cost-sensitive industrial boards only | Select when board-level AOI is not required and thermal budget allows higher conduction loss. |
| PSMN2R0-30YL | Lower RDS(on) (2.0 mΩ), TO-220FP package, higher gate charge (60 nC), no AEC-Q101 | Requires heatsink and external ESD protection; unsuitable for automotive or space-constrained designs | Choose only for high-current, non-automotive applications where thermal mass outweighs size constraints. |
Compared with DMN3025LSD-13 and PSMN2R0-30YL, PMPB13XNEA uniquely balances AEC-Q101 qualification, AOI-ready packaging, and sub-15 mΩ RDS(on) in a 2.0 × 2.0 mm footprint - making it the only option for automotive-grade, high-density, optically inspectable low-side switching.

FAQ
Is PMPB13XNEA suitable for 12 V automotive battery monitoring circuits?
Yes. With 30 V VDS, AEC-Q101 qualification, and operation from –55 °C to 150 °C, PMPB13XNEA meets ISO 7637-2 pulse test requirements for battery monitoring in start-stop systems. Its 1 µA IDSS leakage and 0.65 V VGS(th) ensure accurate low-current sensing and stable biasing across temperature.
What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
Use a 6 cm² single-sided copper pad for the drain terminals, tin-plated and connected to internal ground planes via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.8 mm pitch). Maintain 0.25 mm solder mask opening around side-wettable flanks and follow Nexperia's sot1220_fr footprint (Fig. 19) for reflow profile compliance.
Does PMPB13XNEA require a gate resistor for 3.3 V MCU drive?
No external gate resistor is required. With 2.1 Ω typical gate resistance and 0.65 V typical VGS(th), the device turns on fully at 3.3 V. However, a 10 Ω series resistor is recommended to dampen ringing in high-dI/dt applications - confirmed by Nexperia's application note AN11158 for DFN2020MD-6 layout.
Can PMPB13XNEA replace older SOT-23 MOSFETs in existing designs?
Not as a drop-in replacement due to different package (DFN2020MD-6 vs SOT-23), pinout, and thermal interface. It requires PCB redesign to accommodate the 2.0 × 2.0 mm footprint, side-wettable flanks, and multi-drain pad. However, its superior RDS(on) and AEC-Q101 status justify redesign for next-gen automotive and industrial platforms.
