Product details
Overview
PMV65ENEAR from Nexperia is a 40 V, 2.7 A N-channel Trench MOSFET in SOT23 (TO-236AB) package, designed for low-side load switching and high-speed line driving. It features logic-level gate drive (VGS(th) = 1.6 V typ), RDS(on) = 64 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, 25 °C, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive reliability.
For engineers reviewing the PMV65ENEAR datasheet, PMV65ENEAR pinout, PMV65ENEAR application, or PMV65ENEAR equivalent, this device supports fast-switching relay drivers, compact low-voltage loadswitches, and space-constrained industrial control nodes requiring ESD-hardened (>2 kV HBM), thermally efficient discrete power switching.
Technical Context
This N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET uses Trench technology to achieve low RDS(on) and fast switching (tr = 12 ns, tf = 5 ns) with minimal gate charge (QG(tot) = 4.1–6 nC). Its logic-compatible threshold enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode (VSD = 0.8–1.2 V at IS = 0.91 A), supports unclamped avalanche energy up to 6.5 mJ, and operates across –55 °C to 150 °C junction temperature with FR4 PCB thermal resistance Rth(j-a) = 221–254 K/W (standard footprint).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive and industrial bus applications. |
| RDS(on) | 64 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 2.7 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <170 mW conduction loss at full rated current. |
| VGS(th) | 1.6 V typ - Ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V GPIOs and reduces risk of partial enhancement in noisy environments. |
| QG(tot) | 4.1–6 nC - Supports >1 MHz switching in PWM-driven loads with low gate-drive power demand. |
| ID (cont) | 2.7 A @ Tamb = 25 °C - Sustains continuous load current in compact SOT23 footprint with 6 cm² drain pad. |
| ESD Rating | >2 kV HBM - Provides robust handling during board assembly and field operation without external protection. |
| Ptot | 6.25 W @ Tsp = 25 °C - Delivers usable power dissipation in thermally constrained layouts using solder-point cooling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-236AB (SOT23), 3-lead surface-mount plastic package with standard 0.95 mm pitch, 1.2 mm body width, and exposed drain pad for thermal conduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | G (Gate) | Control terminal; accepts logic-level input (0–20 V); requires ≤11 Ω external gate resistor for optimal switching speed. |
| 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; electrically and thermally connected to PCB copper pour for heat dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) = 1.6 V typ ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V MCU outputs, eliminating level-shifters in embedded control. |
| Trench MOSFET architecture | Delivers 64 mΩ RDS(on) in SOT23 - 30% lower on-resistance than planar equivalents at same voltage rating. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood use including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and ESD stress per JESD22-A114. |
| Fast switching performance | tr/tf = 12 ns/5 ns with QGD = 0.8 nC minimizes switching losses in 500 kHz–1 MHz DC-DC and motor gate drivers. |
| Integrated ESD protection | HBM rating >2 kV eliminates need for external TVS diodes in board-level ESD protection schemes. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3025LFG-7 | RDS(on) = 25 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V but requires 2.5 V min VGS(th); larger TSOP-6 package (3.05 × 1.65 mm). | Better conduction efficiency at higher currents; unsuitable for space-constrained SOT23 footprints. | Select when RDS(on) reduction outweighs board area and thermal interface constraints. |
| AO3400 | VGS(th) = 1.4 V typ, RDS(on) = 40 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, but not AEC-Q101 qualified; HBM = 1.5 kV. | Lacks automotive qualification and ESD margin; acceptable for commercial-grade consumer electronics only. | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where qualification and robustness are secondary. |
Compared with DMN3025LFG-7 and AO3400, PMV65ENEAR uniquely balances SOT23 form factor, AEC-Q101 compliance, and 64 mΩ RDS(on), making it optimal for automotive-qualified, space-limited low-side switching where reliability and layout density are co-prioritized.

FAQ
Is PMV65ENEAR suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With a typical gate threshold voltage of 1.6 V and guaranteed turn-on at VGS ≥ 2.5 V, PMV65ENEAR fully enhances using standard 3.3 V GPIO outputs. Its low gate charge (4.1–6 nC) further ensures fast, low-power switching without external driver stages.
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C ambient?
At Tamb = 100 °C, the maximum continuous drain current is 1.7 A, as specified in the limiting values table. This reflects thermal derating due to reduced power dissipation capability at elevated ambient temperatures on standard FR4 PCBs.
Does PMV65ENEAR include integrated reverse polarity protection?
No. PMV65ENEAR is a standard N-channel MOSFET without built-in reverse polarity circuitry. For reverse voltage protection, an external P-channel MOSFET or dedicated protection IC must be used upstream of the drain terminal.
Can PMV65ENEAR replace older SOT23 MOSFETs like PMV16XNR in new designs?
Yes - with validation. PMV65ENEAR offers lower RDS(on) (64 mΩ vs. 110 mΩ), faster switching, and AEC-Q101 qualification versus PMV16XNR. Pinout is identical (G-S-D), but layout review is required to confirm thermal pad compatibility and gate drive stability under target load conditions.
