Product details
Overview
PMPB29XNEA from Nexperia is a 30 V, N-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in a DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) package, designed for low-side switching with RDS(on) = 28 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 5 A, AEC-Q101 qualified, and featuring side-wettable flanks for optical solder inspection - used in automotive relay drivers and high-speed line drivers.
For engineers reviewing the PMPB29XNEA datasheet, PMPB29XNEA pinout, PMPB29XNEA application, or PMPB29XNEA equivalent, this device supports precise low-voltage gate drive (VGS(th) = 0.65 V typ), delivers robust avalanche energy (11.8 mJ), and enables compact thermal design via its ultra-thin DFN package with 5 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Trench technology to achieve low RDS(on) and fast switching (tr = 17 ns, tf = 32 ns) while maintaining stable threshold voltage (0.4–0.9 V) across -55 °C to 150 °C. Its integrated source-drain diode has VSD = 0.6 V at IS = 1.9 A and trr = 9 ns, supporting efficient freewheeling in inductive loads.
The device operates under strict automotive-grade reliability constraints: ESD rating > 500 V HBM, guaranteed avalanche ruggedness, and qualification per AEC-Q101. Thermal performance is optimized for FR4 PCBs with 6 cm² drain pad, delivering 12.5 W total power dissipation at Tsp = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive and industrial bus applications |
| RDS(on) | 28 mΩ @ VGS = 4.5 V, ID = 5 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <150 mW conduction loss at 5 A |
| VGS(th) | 0.65 V typ - Supports direct logic-level drive from 1.8 V/2.5 V microcontrollers |
| QG(tot) | 12.4–18.6 nC - Low gate charge enables efficient 1 MHz+ PWM switching with minimal driver loss |
| ID (cont) | 5 A @ Tamb = 25 °C - Sustained current capability on standard FR4 with 6 cm² copper pad |
| EAS | 11.8 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events without failure |
| Rth(j-sp) | 5–10 K/W - Enables rapid heat transfer to PCB for thermally constrained layouts |
Pinout & Package
DFN2020MD-6 (SOT1220) is a 2.0 × 2.0 mm, 0.65 mm profile, leadless thermal-enhanced package with side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection. It features an exposed drain paddle connected to pins 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7 for optimal thermal and electrical performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | High-current output node; electrically and thermally tied to exposed copper paddle |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Control input requiring ≤18.6 nC charge; low 1.8 Ω internal gate resistance |
| 4, 8 | Source (S) | Power return path; dual-source terminals reduce loop inductance in switching paths |

| Integrated source-drain diode | 1.9 A continuous forward current with 9 ns reverse recovery supports flyback operation |
| Trench MOSFET architecture | Delivers 30% lower RDS(on) vs planar equivalents at same die size and voltage class |
Applications
| Automotive Relay Driver | High-Speed Line Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 12 V automotive relays in body control modules where space and thermal headroom are limited. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch controlling relay coil current up to 5 A with <100 ns switching transitions. Use Value: Eliminates need for external gate driver due to 0.65 V threshold and 18.6 nC QG, reducing BOM count by one active component. | Use Scenario: Transmitting digital signals over 50 Ω transmission lines in infotainment serial buses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching current sink enabling clean 10–100 MHz square-wave edge integrity. Use Value: 17 ns rise time and 32 ns fall time preserve signal fidelity while minimizing EMI generation. |
| Low-Side Load Switch | DC-DC Converter Synchronous Rectifier |
Use Scenario: Powering auxiliary 3.3 V/5 V rails in ADAS domain controllers with inrush current limiting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Controlled power path switch with soft-start capability via gate slew-rate control. Use Value: 28 mΩ RDS(on) limits voltage drop to <150 mV at 5 A, preserving load regulation accuracy. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 30 V-input buck converters for automotive camera modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier replacing Schottky diode to improve efficiency above 1 A load. Use Value: 11.8 mJ avalanche rating handles transient overvoltage during light-load discontinuous conduction mode. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3026LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 26 mΩ @ 4.5 V but larger SO-8 package (no side-wettable flanks); higher QG = 22 nC | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; not suitable for automotive production | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial prototypes where AOI and qualification are non-critical |
| PSMN2R0-30YL | Same DFN2020MD-6 package and AEC-Q101 rating; RDS(on) = 2.0 mΩ @ 10 V but requires 4.5 V min gate drive | Higher gate threshold (1.0–2.0 V) reduces compatibility with 1.8 V logic | Prefer when lower RDS(on) justifies higher VGS requirement and tighter layout tolerance |
Compared with DMN3026LSD-13 and PSMN2R0-30YL, PMPB29XNEA uniquely balances ultra-low gate threshold, automotive qualification, and AOI-ready packaging - making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-aware 12 V systems where 1.8 V MCU interfacing and zero-defect assembly are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The PMPB29XNEA supports 3.2 A continuous drain current at Tamb = 100 °C with standard FR4 mounting (6 cm² drain pad). This derating reflects thermal limits imposed by Rth(j-a) = 235–270 K/W and ensures safe operation below Tj = 150 °C under sustained load.
Does PMPB29XNEA require a gate resistor for typical 3.3 V MCU drive?
No external gate resistor is required for basic turn-on with 3.3 V MCUs due to its low 0.65 V typical threshold and 1.8 Ω internal gate resistance. However, a 10–22 Ω series resistor is recommended to damp ringing and control dV/dt in high-frequency or high-noise environments.
Is the source-drain diode rated for continuous conduction?
Yes - the integrated body diode supports 1.9 A continuous forward current at Tj = 25 °C (VSD = 0.6 V), with 9 ns reverse recovery time. It is suitable for freewheeling in low-duty-cycle inductive loads but not intended for sustained bidirectional conduction.
How does the side-wettable flank design impact reflow soldering yield?
The side-wettable flanks enable full optical inspection of all solder joints without X-ray, improving first-pass yield in automated SMT lines. The recommended reflow footprint (Fig. 19) uses 0.33 mm wide solder lands and 0.45 mm paste deposits to ensure consistent fillet formation and void-free thermal pad attachment.
