Product details
Overview
PMV45EN,215 from Nexperia is a logic-level N-channel enhancement-mode TrenchMOS FET in SOT23 (TO-236AB) package, rated for 30 V VDS, 5.4 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, and 35 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 2 A. It serves as a high-speed load switch in battery management and power rail control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMV45EN,215 datasheet, PMV45EN,215 pinout, PMV45EN,215 application, or PMV45EN,215 equivalent, this discrete MOSFET offers verified logic-level gate drive compatibility down to 4.5 V, fast switching with 5 ns turn-on delay and 5.5 ns fall time, and thermal resistance of 60 K/W from junction to solder point - critical for compact DC-DC and portable power designs.
Technical Context
This N-channel MOSFET uses TrenchMOS technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast dynamic performance. Its gate threshold voltage ranges from 0.6 V (at 150 °C) to 2.2 V (at −55 °C), enabling reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic drivers.
It features a built-in source-drain diode with 0.79 V forward voltage at 1.5 A and 25 °C, and supports peak pulsed drain current up to 21.6 A. The device operates across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature and is qualified for industrial and computing applications - not automotive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - maximum drain-source blocking voltage; suitable for 24 V nominal systems with margin. |
| ID (continuous) | 5.4 A at Tsp = 25 °C - usable for medium-power load switching without forced cooling. |
| RDS(on) | 35 mΩ typ. at VGS = 10 V, ID = 2 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <175 mW conduction loss at 2 A. |
| QG(tot) | 9.4 nC - low total gate charge supports efficient 1–2 MHz switching in synchronous buck stages. |
| td(on)/tf | 5 ns / 5.5 ns - fast edge transitions reduce switching losses and EMI in high-frequency SMPS. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 60 K/W - thermal resistance from junction to solder point; requires adequate PCB copper area for thermal management. |
| VGS(th) | 1.5 V typ. at 25 °C - ensures robust turn-on with 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3025LSD-13 | 30 V, 4.5 A, 25 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V; SO-8 package (dual N-channel). | Higher current density but larger footprint; dual configuration enables half-bridge use. | Select when board space allows SO-8 and dual-FET topology is needed; not pin-compatible with PMV45EN,215. |
| AO3400 | 30 V, 5.7 A, 42 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V; same SOT23 package and pinout. | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by ~20 % at 2 A; otherwise functionally interchangeable. | Acceptable alternative if 42 mΩ is acceptable; identical pinout and footprint enable drop-in replacement in existing layouts. |
Compared with DMN3025LSD-13 and AO3400, the PMV45EN,215 delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), fast switching, and minimal SOT23 footprint - making it preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency battery-powered systems where thermal resistance and gate charge are design-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for PMV45EN,215 at 100 °C solder point temperature?
The PMV45EN,215 supports 3.4 A continuous drain current at Tsp = 100 °C, as specified in Table 5 (Limiting values). This derating reflects thermal constraints of the SOT23 package and must be applied when ambient or PCB thermal conditions limit heat dissipation. At 25 °C, the rating rises to 5.4 A.
Does PMV45EN,215 have a guaranteed gate threshold voltage range across temperature?
Yes - the PMV45EN,215 has a specified VGS(th) range of 0.6 V to 2.2 V across its full operating junction temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C), with typical value 1.5 V at 25 °C. This ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V logic even under worst-case high-temperature conditions.
Can PMV45EN,215 be used in high-side switching configurations?
Yes - the PMV45EN,215 is an N-channel MOSFET and can be used in high-side switching when paired with a gate driver capable of providing VGS ≥ 4.5 V above the drain potential. Its 20 V maximum VGS rating and 30 V VDS support bootstrap or charge-pump based high-side drive in DC-DC topologies.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to solder point (Rth(j-sp)) for PMV45EN,215?
The PMV45EN,215 has a maximum Rth(j-sp) of 60 K/W, as stated in Table 6. This parameter measures thermal resistance between the silicon junction and the PCB solder point, and is critical for estimating junction temperature rise under steady-state power dissipation in real-world PCB layouts.
Is PMV45EN,215 qualified for automotive applications?
No - the PMV45EN,215 is explicitly designed and qualified for computing, communications, consumer, and industrial applications only. It is not AEC-Q101 qualified, and the datasheet states that non-automotive qualified products are unsuitable for automotive use without additional validation by the customer.
