Product details
Overview
PMPB23XNE from Nexperia is a 20 V, single N-channel Trench MOSFET in a DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) leadless ultra-thin SMD package, designed for high-efficiency power switching in space-constrained portable electronics. It delivers RDS(on) = 19 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 7 A, supports 10.1 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, features 2.1 kV HBM ESD protection, and uses an exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction in battery-powered charging switches.
For engineers reviewing the PMPB23XNE datasheet, PMPB23XNE pinout, PMPB23XNE application, or PMPB23XNE equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20 V VDS, low 19 mΩ on-resistance at 4.5 V gate drive, 6-terminal DFN2020MD-6 thermal-enhanced footprint, junction temperature range of −55 to 150 °C, and suitability for compact DC-DC converter and portable power management designs.
Technical Context
This N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET employs Trench technology to achieve low RDS(on) and fast switching with QG(tot) = 11.6–17 nC and tf = 32 ns. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 0.4 V to 0.9 V, enabling reliable turn-on with 1.8 V–4.5 V logic-level drive.
The device integrates an internal source-drain diode with VSD = 0.6–1.2 V at IS = 1.9 A and exhibits Ciss = 1136 pF and Crss = 112 pF, supporting stable operation in synchronous rectification and load-switching topologies under 25 °C to 150 °C junction conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| VDS | 20 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines safe operating ceiling in 5 V–12 V rail applications. |
| RDS(on) | 19–22 mΩ @ VGS = 4.5 V, ID = 7 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <150 mW conduction loss at 7 A, critical for thermally constrained PCBs. |
| ID (continuous) | 10.1 A @ Tamb = 25 °C, t ≤ 5 s - Supports high-pulse load switching in USB-C PD and battery protection circuits. |
| VGS(th) | 0.4–0.9 V - Ensures robust gate turn-on with low-voltage microcontrollers and PMICs without level-shifting. |
| QG(tot) | 11.6–17 nC - Determines gate drive strength requirement; compatible with standard 1–5 Ω gate resistors for <50 ns switching transitions. |
| Tj range | −55 to 150 °C - Qualified for extended industrial and portable ambient environments including battery pack interiors. |
| ESD rating | 2100 V HBM - Eliminates need for external ESD protection in handheld device front-end switches. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220), 2.0 × 2.0 × 0.65 mm, leadless, thermally enhanced with exposed drain pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Five parallel drain terminals connected to exposed copper pad - provides low-inductance, high-current path and primary thermal conduction to PCB. |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Single gate input - accepts standard logic-level drive; RG = 2.4 Ω typical enables predictable Miller plateau timing. |
| 4, 8 | Source (S) | Two source terminals - reduce source inductance in high-di/dt switching; referenced to system ground in low-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2020LFG-7 | RDS(on) = 22 mΩ @ 4.5 V; same DFN2020MD-6 package; VGS(th) = 0.5–1.2 V; lower ESD (1.5 kV HBM). | Marginally higher on-resistance and wider VGS(th) spread may require gate drive validation in 1.8 V systems. | Preferred where supply chain diversification is needed and 3% RDS(on) increase is acceptable. |
| SI2302DS-T1-BE3 | RDS(on) = 35 mΩ @ 4.5 V; SOT-23 package; VGS(th) = 0.4–1.0 V; no exposed drain pad; Rth(j-a) = 235 K/W. | Higher thermal resistance and on-resistance limit use to <2 A continuous loads; unsuitable for high-density thermal layouts. | Select only when board space allows SOT-23 and thermal budget permits >2× conduction loss versus PMPB23XNE. |
Compared with DMN2020LFG-7 and SI2302DS-T1-BE3, the PMPB23XNE offers the lowest RDS(on) and best thermal performance in its footprint, making it optimal for high-current, space-constrained portable power switches where efficiency and junction temperature control are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PMPB23XNE at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The PMPB23XNE supports 4.4 A continuous drain current at Tamb = 100 °C with VGS = 4.5 V, as specified in Table 5 of the datasheet. This derating reflects thermal limits under standard FR4 mounting conditions with 6 cm² drain pad area. At 25 °C, the rating increases to 10.1 A for t ≤ 5 s pulses. Engineers must verify PCB copper area and airflow to sustain this current in real-world PMPB23XNE deployments.
Does PMPB23XNE have a body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, the PMPB23XNE includes an integrated source-drain body diode with VSD = 0.6–1.2 V at IS = 1.9 A and Tj = 25 °C, per Table 7. This diode enables freewheeling in inductive loads and reverse-current blocking in load-switch configurations. Its low forward voltage reduces conduction loss compared to external Schottky diodes in compact DC-DC layouts using the PMPB23XNE.
Can PMPB23XNE be driven directly by a 1.8 V GPIO?
Yes-the PMPB23XNE has a gate threshold voltage VGS(th) as low as 0.4 V (min), and its RDS(on) remains 31–44 mΩ at VGS = 1.8 V and ID = 1.9 A (Table 7). While full enhancement occurs at ≥2.5 V, 1.8 V drive yields usable on-state resistance for low-current switching. For 7 A operation, however, ≥2.5 V is recommended; always validate with actual PMPB23XNE gate drive waveforms and thermal margin.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to solder point (Rth(j-sp)) for PMPB23XNE?
The PMPB23XNE has Rth(j-sp) = 5–10 K/W, per Table 6. This low value results from the exposed drain pad directly bonded to the PCB copper, enabling rapid heat transfer to the board. When designing thermal relief for the PMPB23XNE, prioritize large, multi-layer thermal vias under the drain pad and minimize trace length between the device and ground plane to fully leverage this specification.
Is PMPB23XNE suitable for automotive applications?
No-PMPB23XNE is not automotive-qualified. The datasheet explicitly states in Section 12.3 that "Unless this data sheet expressly states that this specific Nexperia product is automotive qualified, the product is not suitable for automotive use." It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, automotive-grade testing, and guaranteed operation beyond 125 °C junction temperature. For automotive power switching, select a designated AEC-Q101 part instead of the PMPB23XNE.
