Product details
Overview
PMPB20XNEAZ from Nexperia is a 20 V, N-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in a DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) package, designed for low-side switching in space-constrained automotive and industrial applications. It delivers RDS(on) = 16 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 7.5 A (Tj = 25 °C), supports fast switching (tr = 40 ns, tf = 22 ns), and is AEC-Q101 qualified for under-hood use.
For engineers reviewing the PMPB20XNEAZ datasheet, PMPB20XNEAZ pinout, PMPB20XNEAZ application, or PMPB20XNEAZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its low 0.75–1.25 V gate threshold voltage, 2 kV HBM ESD rating, thermal resistance of 67 K/W (junction-to-solder point), and suitability for high-speed line drivers and relay control circuits where compact thermal performance is critical.
Technical Context
This device employs Trench MOSFET technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with minimal gate charge (QG(tot) = 9.9 nC typical). Its symmetrical drain-source diode (VSD = 0.7–1.2 V at IS = 1.65 A) enables bidirectional current handling in load-switch configurations.
The DFN2020MD-6 package integrates five drain terminals and two source terminals to optimize current sharing and thermal dissipation, supporting 12.5 W total power dissipation when mounted on a 6 cm² copper pad - enabling operation up to Tj = 150 °C in ambient-limited environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 20 V maximum - defines safe blocking capability in 12 V automotive systems with transient margin. |
| RDS(on) | 16 mΩ typ @ VGS = 4.5 V, ID = 7.5 A - enables <100 mW conduction loss at 2.5 A continuous load. |
| QG(tot) | 9.9 nC typical - reduces gate drive power and enables efficient PWM operation up to 1 MHz. |
| tr/tf | 40 ns / 22 ns - supports clean edge transitions in digital logic-level switching and motor gate drives. |
| VGS(th) | 0.75–1.25 V - ensures reliable turn-on with 1.8 V or 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting. |
| Tj max | 150 °C - meets AEC-Q101 temperature requirements for engine compartment placement. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 67 K/W - allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper, simplifying heatsink-free designs in low-power modules. |
Pinout & Package
DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) is a 2.0 × 2.0 × 0.65 mm leadless thermally enhanced plastic package with exposed drain paddle and six solderable terminals. The package features five drain pins and two source pins arranged for optimal current distribution and thermal path efficiency.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Five parallel drain connections reduce current density and improve thermal spreading to the PCB copper pad. |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 1 Ω typical gate resistance - minimizes ringing and simplifies RC snubber design. |
| 4, 8 | Source (S) | Two dedicated source terminals provide low-inductance return path and stabilize gate drive reference. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low threshold voltage | VGS(th) as low as 0.75 V enables direct drive from 1.8 V logic and improves system-level energy efficiency in battery-powered modules. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and ESD robustness - suitable for body control units and lighting drivers. |
| ESD protection | HBM rating > 2 kV eliminates need for external ESD clamps in board-level protection schemes. |
| Thermal-enhanced DFN | 67 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance enables 12.5 W power handling without heatsinks on standard FR4 with 6 cm² drain pad. |
| Fast switching | 40 ns rise time and 22 ns fall time support high-frequency PWM (>500 kHz) in DC-DC converters and LED dimming circuits. |
Applications
| Automotive Relay Driver | Industrial Low-Side Load Switch |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Driving 12 V automotive relays in body control modules with microcontroller GPIO output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch controlling relay coil current (typically 100–300 mA) with fast turn-off to suppress back-EMF spikes. Use Value: 0.75 V VGS(th) ensures full enhancement at 3.3 V MCU output; 2 kV HBM withstands vehicle-level ESD events during assembly and service. |
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling 5 V or 3.3 V power rails to sensors and peripherals in programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency, low-leakage load switch with controlled inrush current via gate slew rate management. Use Value: 1 µA IDSS at VDS = 20 V minimizes standby power loss; 16 mΩ RDS(on) limits voltage drop to <80 mV at 5 A load. |
| High-Speed Line Driver | Switching Power Supply Sync Rectifier |
|
Use Scenario: Transmitting TTL/CMOS signals across noisy industrial bus lines with impedance-matched termination. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active pull-down element in push-pull driver stage operating at >10 MHz data rates. Use Value: 40 ns tr and 22 ns tf preserve signal integrity; low Ciss (930 pF) reduces capacitive loading on driving gate. |
Use Scenario: Replacing Schottky diodes in secondary-side rectification of isolated DC-DC converters (e.g., 5 V/3 A outputs). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronously gated N-channel MOSFET acting as low-loss rectifier during transformer secondary conduction phase. Use Value: 16 mΩ RDS(on) cuts conduction loss by >60% vs. 400 mV Schottky; 100 ns max td(off) enables precise timing alignment with primary-side controller. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel low-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LKQ-7 | Higher RDS(on) (22 mΩ @ 4.5 V), same 20 V rating, identical DFN2020MD-6 package. | Lower current capability (ID = 6.2 A) and reduced thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 74 K/W). | Acceptable for lower-current (<5 A), non-automotive applications where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal margin. |
| PSMN2R0-20YL | Lower RDS(on) (1.9 mΩ @ 4.5 V), but larger LFPAK56 (Power-SO8) package and higher QG (23 nC). | Requires more PCB area and stronger gate drive; better suited for high-efficiency 10+ A power stages. | Preferred only when sub-2 mΩ on-resistance justifies larger footprint and increased gate drive complexity. |
Compared with DMN2004LKQ-7, PMPB20XNEAZ offers 27% lower RDS(on) and superior thermal resistance for denser layouts; versus PSMN2R0-20YL, it trades raw on-resistance for smaller size and lower gate charge - making it optimal for space-constrained 5–7.5 A automotive switches.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PMPB20XNEAZ at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 4.8 A at Tamb = 100 °C with device mounted on an FR4 PCB having a single-sided 6 cm² copper drain pad. This derating reflects thermal limitations imposed by Rth(j-a) = 235 K/W and junction temperature constraints capped at 150 °C.
Does PMPB20XNEAZ require a gate resistor for stable switching in 3.3 V logic-driven applications?
A gate resistor is recommended - typically 10–47 Ω - to dampen potential oscillation caused by gate-drain capacitance (Crss = 144 pF) interacting with PCB trace inductance. While the device's 1 Ω intrinsic gate resistance helps, external damping ensures clean turn-on/turn-off edges and prevents shoot-through in half-bridge configurations.
Can PMPB20XNEAZ be used in reverse conduction mode (source-to-drain current flow)?
Yes - the integrated body diode supports source-to-drain conduction with VSD = 0.7–1.2 V at IS = 1.65 A and Tj = 25 °C. However, reverse recovery is not specified; for bidirectional switching, external synchronous control or freewheeling diode pairing is advised to avoid uncontrolled reverse recovery losses.
Is the DFN2020MD-6 package of PMPB20XNEAZ compatible with standard reflow profiles for lead-free soldering?
Yes - the device is qualified for JEDEC J-STD-020D-compliant lead-free reflow, with peak temperature up to 260 °C. The recommended footprint uses 0.65 mm pad width and 0.33 mm stencil aperture per terminal, matching Nexperia's published sot1220_fr layout for optimal solder joint formation and void minimization.
