Product details
Overview
PMT280ENEA from Nexperia is a 100 V, 1.5 A N-channel Trench MOSFET in SOT223 (SC-73) package, optimized for low-side switching with logic-level gate drive (VGS(th) = 1.3–2.7 V), RDS(on) = 285–385 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive reliability. It serves as a robust load switch in LED backlight drivers and relay control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMT280ENEA datasheet, PMT280ENEA pinout, PMT280ENEA application, or PMT280ENEA equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 V drain-source rating, 2 kV HBM ESD protection, fast switching (td(on) = 5 ns, tf = 2 ns), thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 10–20 K/W, and SOT223 footprint compatibility with high-current PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET uses Trench technology to achieve low RDS(on) and high transconductance (gfs = 5.4 S), enabling efficient conduction at logic-level gate voltages (VGS ≥ 4.5 V). Its gate charge profile (QG(tot) = 4.5–6.8 nC) supports high-frequency switching up to several hundred kHz.
The device integrates an intrinsic source-drain diode (VSD = 0.9–1.2 V at IS = 1.5 A) and features avalanche-rated energy handling (EAS = 8.4 mJ), supporting unclamped inductive turn-off in relay and solenoid drivers without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - Maximum continuous drain-source blocking voltage; suitable for 24 V and 48 V industrial bus systems with margin. |
| RDS(on) | 285–385 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 1.5 A - Low on-resistance minimizes conduction loss in 1.5 A DC loadswitch applications. |
| VGS(th) | 1.3–2.7 V @ ID = 250 µA - Logic-level threshold enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting. |
| QG(tot) | 4.5–6.8 nC - Low total gate charge reduces driver power demand and enables fast switching transitions (tf = 2 ns). |
| Rth(j-sp) | 10–20 K/W - Junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance allows >1.9 W continuous dissipation on standard FR4 with 6 cm² drain pad. |
| EAS | 8.4 mJ - Non-repetitive avalanche energy rating supports reliable turn-off into inductive loads like relays and solenoids. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT223 (SC-73), 4-lead surface-mount plastic package with enhanced heatsink capability; drain terminals (pins 2 and 4) are internally connected and thermally tied to the large exposed pad for improved thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | G | Gate input - Controls channel conduction; requires <2.2 Ω series resistance for optimal EMI and ringing suppression. |
| 2 | D | Drain - High-side connection point for switched load; electrically and thermally connected to pin 4 and exposed pad. |
| 3 | S | Source - Return path for load current; referenced to system ground in low-side configurations. |
| 4 | D | Drain - Redundant drain terminal; must be soldered to same copper pour as pin 2 for thermal and electrical integrity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS ≥ 4.5 V - eliminates need for gate driver ICs in MCU-based control designs. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Qualified per Automotive Electronics Council stress test standard - validated for under-hood temperature cycling and humidity exposure. |
| ESD protection | HBM rating >2 kV - provides robustness against handling and board-level ESD events without external protection diodes. |
| Trench MOSFET architecture | Enables lower RDS(on) and higher gfs vs planar MOSFETs - improves efficiency and dynamic response in space-constrained SOT223 layout. |
Applications
| LED Backlight Driver | Automotive Relay Driver |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3028LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V (lower), but VDS = 30 V only - unsuitable for 48 V systems. | Targeted at 5–12 V consumer power rails; lacks AEC-Q101 and avalanche rating. | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive 12 V applications where voltage margin is not required. |
| IPB050N10N5 | 100 V, RDS(on) = 5.0 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, TO-263 package - 10× lower RDS(on) but 3× larger footprint and no logic-level gate. | Requires gate driver for 3.3 V MCU interface; suited for high-efficiency 10+ A motor drives, not SOT223 space-constrained designs. | Choose when thermal budget permits TO-263 and conduction loss dominates over gate drive complexity. |
Compared with DMN3028LSD-13 and IPB050N10N5, PMT280ENEA uniquely balances 100 V rating, logic-level drive, AEC-Q101 compliance, and SOT223 form factor-making it optimal for automotive and industrial low-side switches where board area, voltage margin, and reliability are jointly constrained.

FAQ
Is PMT280ENEA suitable for 48 V battery-powered systems?
Yes. With a 100 V VDS rating and 150 °C maximum junction temperature, PMT280ENEA supports 48 V nominal systems including transient spikes up to 80 V typical in automotive and industrial environments. Its RDS(on) remains stable across temperature, and the SOT223 package dissipates >1.9 W with proper PCB copper area.
Does PMT280ENEA require an external flyback diode when driving relay coils?
No. The device's intrinsic source-drain diode (VSD = 0.9–1.2 V) and 8.4 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy rating allow safe clamping of relay coil flyback without external components-provided peak current stays within the 6 A IDM limit and pulse duration is ≤10 µs.
Can PMT280ENEA be driven directly from a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes. Its VGS(th) range (1.3–2.7 V) and guaranteed RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V ensure full enhancement at 3.3 V logic levels. However, for lowest RDS(on) and highest efficiency, 5 V gate drive is recommended; no level shifter is needed in either case.
What is the thermal performance difference between mounting on FR4 vs. metal-core PCB?
On standard FR4 with 6 cm² single-sided drain pad, Rth(j-sp) is 10–20 K/W. Metal-core PCBs can reduce this by ~30–50%, improving power handling-but the SOT223 footprint and pin 2/4 dual-drain design already maximize thermal transfer to copper, making FR4 sufficient for ≤1.5 A continuous operation.
