Product details
Overview
PMV28ENEAR from Nexperia is a 30 V, N-channel Trench MOSFET in SOT23 (TO-236AB) package, designed as a logic-level-compatible low-side load switch with RDS(on) = 28 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and ID = 4.4 A, rated for automotive-grade operation up to Tj = 175 °C and qualified to AEC-Q101.
For engineers reviewing the PMV28ENEAR datasheet, PMV28ENEAR pinout, PMV28ENEAR application, or PMV28ENEAR equivalent, this device supports high-speed switching in relay drivers and automotive body electronics where compact size, ESD robustness (>1.5 kV HBM), and thermal resilience are critical.
Technical Context
This N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET uses Trench technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching dynamics: td(on) = 3 ns, tr = 16 ns, QG(tot) = 5.3–8 nC, and Ciss = 266 pF at VDS = 15 V. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 1.0 V to 2.5 V at Tj = 25 °C, enabling reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V logic.
The device integrates a built-in source-drain diode with VSD = 0.7–1.2 V at IS = 1.1 A and exhibits avalanche ruggedness of 10 mJ (unclamped), supporting robust operation in inductive load switching. Thermal resistance Rth(j-a) is 190–225 K/W on FR4 PCB with standard footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in 24 V automotive and industrial supply rails. |
| RDS(on) | 28 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V, ID = 4.4 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <140 mW conduction loss at 4.4 A, minimizing heat generation in space-constrained layouts. |
| VGS(th) | 1.5 V (typ) - Ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| ID | 4.4 A continuous at Tamb = 25 °C - Supports medium-power loads such as solenoids, LED arrays, and fan motors in compact SMT designs. |
| ESD Rating | >1.5 kV HBM (Class H1C) - Provides robust handling during board assembly and field service without external protection. |
| Tj(max) | 175 °C - Allows sustained operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Meets stress-test requirements for discrete semiconductors in automotive applications, including temperature cycling and HTRB. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-236AB (SOT23), plastic surface-mounted, 3-lead, single-sided copper FR4 mounting pad (6 cm² drain area).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | G (Gate) | Control terminal; accepts logic-level input (0–10 V); low gate charge (QG ≈ 6.7 nC) enables fast switching with minimal drive power. |
| 2 | S (Source) | Reference node for gate drive and current return path; tied to system ground in low-side configurations. |
| 3 | D (Drain) | High-current output terminal; thermally connected to large PCB copper pour to dissipate up to 1.25 W at ambient temperature. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS ≥ 4.5 V, compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V MCU outputs without gate driver ICs. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use per stress-test standards including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling - no derating required for chassis or cabin modules. |
| Extended junction temperature | Rated for continuous operation up to Tj = 175 °C, enabling placement near heat sources or in sealed enclosures without forced cooling. |
| Integrated ESD protection | HBM rating >1.5 kV eliminates need for external TVS diodes in most board-level ESD scenarios (IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2). |
| Trench MOSFET architecture | Delivers lower RDS(on) and higher transconductance (gfs = 12.5 S) than planar equivalents, improving efficiency and dynamic response. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial Relay Driver |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Driving 12 V/24 V electromagnetic relays in door lock actuators and lighting control units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch controlling relay coil current; handles repetitive 100 ms pulses with 18 A peak surge capability. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete flyback diode due to integrated avalanche energy rating (10 mJ), reducing BOM count and PCB area. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Solid-state load switch enabling 10 kHz PWM control of solenoid valves and indicator lamps. Use Value: Achieves sub-20 ns total switching time (td(on) + tr + td(off) + tf), minimizing transition losses in high-frequency duty cycles. |
| USB-C Power Delivery Load Switch | Smart Home Sensor Node Power Gate |
|
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling VBUS power paths in USB-C sink devices with overcurrent and thermal foldback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary power-path FET with controlled turn-on slew rate via gate resistor; monitors VDS for current limiting. Use Value: RDS(on) stability across -40 °C to +125 °C ambient ensures consistent current delivery without calibration drift. |
Use Scenario: Isolating battery-powered sensor subsystems (e.g., motion, temp, humidity) during sleep mode to extend runtime. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ultra-low-leakage (IDSS ≤ 1 µA) power gate activated by microcontroller GPIO to cut off standby current. Use Value: Sub-1 µA off-state drain leakage preserves coin-cell or Li-SOCl₂ battery life for multi-year deployments in remote IoT nodes. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK-7 | RDS(on) = 30 mΩ (VGS = 4.5 V), same SOT23 package, but not AEC-Q101 qualified; HBM = 8 kV. | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for commercial/industrial systems where extended temperature and reliability validation are not mandated. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and higher ESD immunity is acceptable. |
| AO3400 | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ (VGS = 10 V), same footprint, but Tj(max) = 150 °C and no AEC-Q101; Rth(j-a) = 200 K/W (typ). | Lower thermal limit restricts use in high-ambient environments; requires larger copper area for equivalent power dissipation. | Choose for non-automotive consumer or computing applications where 175 °C operation is unnecessary. |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and AO3400, PMV28ENEAR provides verified automotive qualification, guaranteed 175 °C operation, and tighter RDS(on) distribution - making it the only option for under-hood switching and safety-critical load control without design revalidation.

FAQ
Is PMV28ENEAR pin-compatible with other SOT23 N-channel MOSFETs?
Yes - PMV28ENEAR uses standard TO-236AB (SOT23) pinout: Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Source, Pin 3 = Drain. This matches industry-standard SOT23-3 layout used by AO3400, DMN2004LK-7, and Si2300DS, enabling direct PCB footprint reuse in most low-power switching designs.
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C ambient temperature?
At Tamb = 100 °C, the maximum continuous drain current is 3.1 A (per Table 5, Limiting Values). This derating accounts for thermal resistance and junction temperature limits, assuming standard FR4 PCB mounting with single-sided 6 cm² drain copper.
Does PMV28ENEAR require an external gate resistor for EMI control?
A gate resistor of 6 Ω is specified in the datasheet for dynamic characterization (e.g., tf, QG), but no minimum external resistor is required for basic operation. However, adding 10–47 Ω improves EMI performance in high-dV/dt environments and prevents ringing during fast switching.
Can PMV28ENEAR be used in high-side switching configurations?
No - PMV28ENEAR is an N-channel MOSFET with source tied to reference ground in its standard configuration. High-side switching would require a P-channel device or an N-channel with floating gate driver; using it as high-side without level-shifting risks incomplete turn-on and excessive conduction loss.
