Product details
Overview
PMV90EN,215 from Nexperia is a single N-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in SOT23 (TO-236AB) package, designed for low-side switching with 30 V VDS, 70 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 1.9 A, logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) = 1.5 V typ), and fast switching (td(on) = 3 ns, tf = 5 ns). It serves in relay drivers, high-speed line drivers, and compact load-switching circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMV90EN,215 datasheet, PMV90EN,215 pinout, PMV90EN,215 application, or PMV90EN,215 equivalent, key selection factors include its 30 V drain-source rating, 70 mΩ on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, SOT23 thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) = 240–275 K/W with 6 cm² drain pad), 2.6 nC total gate charge, and logic-level threshold enabling direct microcontroller interface without level-shifting.
Technical Context
This N-channel MOSFET uses Trench MOSFET technology to achieve low RDS(on) and fast switching performance in a miniature SOT23 package. Its gate threshold voltage (1.5 V typ) ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V logic systems, while its 30 V VDS rating supports industrial and consumer power-rail switching up to 24 V nominal.
The device exhibits low dynamic capacitances-Ciss = 132 pF, Coss = 31 pF, Crss = 13 pF-and optimized charge distribution (QGS = 0.42 nC, QGD = 0.34 nC), enabling efficient high-frequency operation in DC-DC converters and digital load switches.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum continuous drain-source voltage; supports 24 V rail switching with margin. |
| RDS(on) | 70 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V, ID = 1.9 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <150 mW conduction loss at 1.9 A, critical for thermally constrained SOT23 designs. |
| VGS(th) | 1.5 V (typ) - Ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V GPIO, eliminating need for external gate driver. |
| QG(tot) | 2.6 nC (typ) - Low gate charge reduces drive power and enables >1 MHz switching in compact load-switch applications. |
| tf | 5 ns (typ) - Fast fall time minimizes switching transition losses in high-frequency PWM control. |
| Ptot | 455 mW (with 6 cm² drain pad) - Defines maximum steady-state power dissipation under FR4 PCB conditions. |
| Ciss | 132 pF (typ) - Input capacitance determines gate drive strength requirement for target slew rate. |

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 | 20 V VDS, 42 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V, SOT23 - lower voltage rating but superior on-resistance at low gate drive. | Not suitable for 24 V bus applications; limited to ≤15 V rails due to 20 V absolute max rating. | Select when operating strictly below 15 V and prioritizing lowest possible RDS(on) at 3.3 V drive. |
| AO3400 | 30 V VDS, 42 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V, SOT23 - lower RDS(on) but higher QG(tot) (17 nC) and slower switching (tf = 15 ns). | Higher gate charge increases driver complexity and switching loss above 500 kHz; less suitable for high-frequency load switching. | Select when conduction loss dominates design and switching frequency is <200 kHz; avoid for >1 MHz PWM. |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and AO3400, PMV90EN,215 offers balanced performance: sufficient 30 V rating for 24 V systems, competitive 70 mΩ RDS(on), ultra-low 2.6 nC gate charge for high-frequency efficiency, and proven logic-level compatibility-making it optimal for space-constrained, medium-power, fast-switching low-side applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PMV90EN,215 at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The PMV90EN,215 supports 1.2 A continuous drain current at Tamb = 100 °C with VGS = 10 V, per limiting values table. This derating reflects thermal constraints of the SOT23 package; actual current capability depends on PCB copper area and airflow. For sustained 1.9 A operation, ambient must remain ≤60 °C with 6 cm² drain pad.
Is PMV90EN,215 suitable for driving a 24 V relay coil?
Yes, PMV90EN,215 is rated for 30 V VDS, providing 6 V margin above 24 V relay coils. With typical RDS(on) of 70 mΩ, power dissipation at 1.9 A is ~253 mW - within its 455 mW limit when mounted on a 6 cm² PCB pad. Its 1.5 V VGS(th) ensures reliable turn-on from 3.3 V or 5 V control signals.
What is the gate charge profile of PMV90EN,215 and how does it affect drive requirements?
The PMV90EN,215 has QG(tot) = 2.6 nC (typ), QGS = 0.42 nC, and QGD = 0.34 nC. This low total charge enables efficient switching with minimal gate driver current - e.g., 1 mA average drive sustains 400 kHz operation. The low QGD/QG(tot) ratio also improves hard-switching efficiency and reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk.
Does PMV90EN,215 include an integrated body diode, and what are its specifications?
Yes, PMV90EN,215 features an inherent source-drain body diode with VSD = 0.7 V (typ) at IS = 0.5 A and Tj = 25 °C. It supports up to 0.5 A continuous forward current and 7.6 A peak pulsed current (IDM). This diode enables freewheeling in inductive loads and reverse-current protection in load-switch configurations.
How does the thermal resistance of PMV90EN,215 vary with PCB layout, and what is the recommended copper area?
PMV90EN,215's Rth(j-a) ranges from 240 K/W (with 6 cm² drain pad) to 400 K/W (standard SOT23 footprint). Nexperia specifies 6 cm² tin-plated copper for the drain pad to achieve the 455 mW Ptot rating. Reducing pad area to 1 cm² increases Rth(j-a) to ~350 K/W, limiting safe continuous current to ~1.3 A at 25 °C ambient.
