Product details
Overview
PMPB20EN from Nexperia is a 30 V, N-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in a DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) leadless SMD package, designed for high-efficiency power switching in space-constrained portable electronics. It delivers RDS(on) = 16.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and ID = 7 A (Tj = 25 °C), supports 10.4 A continuous drain current, and features an exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction in battery-powered DC-DC converters and charging switches.
For engineers reviewing the PMPB20EN datasheet, PMPB20EN pinout, PMPB20EN application, or PMPB20EN equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-thin 2 × 2 × 0.65 mm footprint, low gate charge (QG(tot) = 7.2–10.8 nC), fast switching (tr = 17 ns), and thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 5–10 K/W - critical for thermally dense portable power management designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Trench MOSFET technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with minimal gate drive requirements. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 1.0 to 2.0 V at Tj = 25 °C, enabling compatibility with 3.3 V and 4.5 V logic-level control in portable systems.
The device integrates six terminals in a symmetrical DFN2020MD-6 layout: five drain connections (Pins 1, 2, 5, 6, 7) and dual source connections (Pins 4, 8), with Pin 3 dedicated to the gate. The exposed drain pad serves as both primary current path and thermal interface, requiring proper PCB copper area (6 cm²) for rated power dissipation (3.5 W at Tamb = 25 °C, t ≤ 5 s).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V maximum drain-source voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 12–24 V rail applications. |
| RDS(on) | 16.5–19.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 7 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <100 mW conduction loss at 7 A, critical for efficiency in portable power stages. |
| ID (continuous) | 10.4 A at VGS = 10 V, Tamb = 25 °C, t ≤ 5 s - supports peak load handling in USB PD and battery protection circuits. |
| QG(tot) | 7.2–10.8 nC - determines gate driver strength requirement and switching energy loss in high-frequency DC-DC topologies. |
| tr/tf | Rise time 17 ns, fall time 8 ns (VDS = 15 V, ID = 5 A, RG(ext) = 1.7 Ω) - enables >1 MHz operation with low switching loss. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 5–10 K/W - quantifies thermal coupling from junction to solder point, guiding PCB thermal pad design for reliability under sustained load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220), 2.0 × 2.0 × 0.65 mm, leadless, ultra-thin, with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Five parallel drain terminals connected to the exposed bottom pad - provide low-inductance, high-current path and primary thermal conduction route to PCB. |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 1.7 Ω typical gate resistance - interfaces directly with 3.3 V/4.5 V microcontrollers or gate drivers without level shifting. |
| 4, 8 | Source (S) | Dual source terminals - reduce source inductance and improve stability in high-di/dt switching; referenced to system ground in low-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench MOSFET architecture | Enables 16.5 mΩ RDS(on) in 2 × 2 mm footprint - reduces board area and conduction loss vs. planar alternatives. |
| Exposed drain pad | Reduces Rth(j-a) to 33–36 K/W with 6 cm² copper - allows 3.5 W power dissipation without heatsink in handheld devices. |
| Tin-plated side pads | Enables optical solder inspection and reliable reflow joint formation - improves manufacturing yield in high-volume portable assembly. |
| Low QGD/QGS ratio | 0.67 nC gate-drain charge vs. 1 nC gate-source charge - enhances hard-switching robustness and reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK-7 | RDS(on) = 20 mΩ @ 4.5 V (vs. 20.5–24.5 mΩ for PMPB20EN); higher QG = 12.5 nC | Slightly lower conduction loss at 3.3 V gate drive but slower switching - better for <500 kHz apps where gate drive voltage is limited. | Select when driving from 3.3 V GPIO without buffer; avoid in >1 MHz DC-DC due to higher switching loss. |
| AO3414 | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ @ 4.5 V; larger SOT-23 package (3.0 × 1.4 mm); no exposed drain pad | Higher thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) ≈ 150 K/W) limits continuous current to ~3.5 A - suitable only for low-power loads. | Choose only for prototyping or low-current (<2 A), non-thermal-critical roles where DFN assembly is unavailable. |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and AO3414, the PMPB20EN offers superior thermal performance via its exposed drain pad and best-in-class RDS(on)/QG trade-off for 2×2 mm footprints - making it optimal for production-grade portable power stages demanding both density and efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PMPB20EN at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 4.6 A at Tamb = 100 °C, VGS = 10 V, and with the device mounted on an FR4 PCB featuring a 6 cm² drain pad. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DFN2020MD-6 package under sustained high-temperature operation, not electrical capability loss.
Does PMPB20EN require a gate resistor for stable switching in a 1 MHz buck converter?
Yes - a 1.7 Ω external gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for timing measurements (tr, tf). Using this value ensures controlled slew rate, prevents ringing, and avoids shoot-through in synchronous buck configurations. Lower values increase switching speed but risk oscillation; higher values degrade efficiency.
Can PMPB20EN be used in a high-side configuration with 12 V supply?
No - the PMPB20EN is a standard-level N-channel MOSFET with VGS rating of ±20 V and no integrated charge pump. Driving it as a high-side switch would require gate voltage ≥12 V + VGS(th), exceeding safe VGS limits unless a dedicated high-side driver with bootstrap or isolated supply is used.
What is the recommended PCB footprint for reliable reflow soldering of PMPB20EN?
The official Nexperia footprint specifies six 0.33 mm × 0.76 mm solder lands (0.25 mm spacing), with a central 1.9 mm × 1.9 mm exposed drain pad. Solder paste deposit must cover the full pad area to ensure mechanical integrity and thermal performance - insufficient coverage causes delamination under thermal cycling.
