Product details
Overview
PNE20020EXD-QX from Nexperia is a hyperfast recovery rectifier diode rated for 200 V reverse voltage and 2 A average forward current, featuring 25 ns reverse recovery time, Pt-doped planar die technology, and clip-bond construction for high power density-used in automotive-grade freewheeling and reverse polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PNE20020EXD-QX datasheet, PNE20020EXD-QX pinout, PNE20020EXD-QX application, or PNE20020EXD-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include trr ≤ 25 ns, VF = 950 mV @ 2 A/25 °C, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOD323HP package thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 125 K/W), and low-profile 0.68 mm height for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device employs Pt-doped lifetime control on a planar silicon die to achieve hyperfast soft recovery with trr ≤ 25 ns under step-recovery conditions (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1 A, IR(meas) = 0.25 A, Tj = 25 °C) and Qrr = 4 nC at IF = 1 A/dIF/dt = 50 A/µs/VR = 30 V.
Its CFP2-HP (SOD323HP) package uses clip-bond interconnect to minimize parasitic inductance and maximize thermal transfer via the cathode tab, enabling 2.8 A peak forward current (IFSM = 25 A) and junction temperature operation up to 175 °C with Rth(j-a) = 230 K/W on standard FR4.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Voltage (VR) | 200 V - supports DC bus clamping and flyback snubbing in 12–48 V automotive systems without derating below 150 °C junction. |
| Average Forward Current (IF(AV)) | 2 A - sustained conduction capability at δ = 0.5, f = 20 kHz square wave with solder point ≤ 163 °C on standard FR4. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 950 mV @ 2 A, 25 °C - enables low conduction loss in high-frequency switching converters and reduces thermal load on compact PCBs. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (trr) | ≤ 25 ns - minimizes switching losses and EMI in >100 kHz DC-DC topologies such as synchronous buck freewheeling paths. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.6 µA @ 200 V, 125 °C - ensures stable blocking in high-temp engine bay environments without thermal runaway risk. |
| Junction-to-Solder-Point Rth | 125 K/W - allows direct thermal coupling to large copper pads for efficient heat extraction in space-limited automotive modules. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive applications including powertrain control units, body electronics, and ADAS power supplies. |
Pinout & Package
Encapsulated in a CFP2-HP (SOD323HP) surface-mount plastic package measuring 2.2 mm × 1.3 mm × 0.68 mm, with flat leads optimized for reflow soldering and low-profile assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Main current exit path; thermally enhanced tab connects directly to PCB copper for low Rth(j-sp) = 125 K/W. |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Current entry terminal; designed for minimal parasitic inductance in high-dI/dt freewheeling paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hyperfast recovery | trr ≤ 25 ns ensures <5 ns tail current, reducing switching loss and EMI in 200–500 kHz SMPS designs. |
| Clip-bond construction | Eliminates wire bonds to deliver 2.8 A continuous forward current and 25 A non-repetitive surge capability. |
| Pt-doped lifetime control | Enables soft, controlled reverse recovery without oscillation-critical for noise-sensitive automotive CAN/LIN subsystems. |
| SOD323HP footprint | 0.68 mm max height and 1.3 mm width enable placement beneath connectors or near ICs in dense ADAS ECUs. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated across temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD tests-supports functional safety requirements up to ASIL-B. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar hyperfast rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUP2114MR6T1G | 100 V VR, 200 mA IF(AV), 35 ns trr, SOD-323 package | Limited to low-power signal-level protection; not rated for 2 A power rectification or automotive temperature range. | Select only for sub-100 mA reverse polarity guard in non-automotive consumer ports. |
| Vishay VS-2EY20-M3/54 | 200 V VR, 2 A IF(AV), 35 ns trr, SMA package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm) | Higher profile (2.3 mm), larger footprint, and no AEC-Q101 qualification-unsuitable for space-constrained automotive modules. | Acceptable where board height >2 mm is available and AEC compliance is not required. |
Compared with NUP2114MR6T1G and VS-2EY20-M3/54, PNE20020EXD-QX uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 0.68 mm height, 25 ns trr, and 2 A rating in SOD323HP-enabling direct replacement in next-gen automotive power stages without layout or thermal redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for continuous operation?
The PNE20020EXD-QX has a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C, verified per AEC-Q101 stress testing. Continuous operation at this limit requires maintaining solder point temperature ≤163 °C on FR4 with 1 cm² cathode pad, as defined in Table 5 limiting values and Figure 9 thermal derating curves.
Does this diode support reflow soldering with lead-free processes?
Yes-Nexperia specifies full compatibility with JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow profiles. The CFP2-HP package is qualified for peak temperatures up to 260 °C, and Figure 19 provides the recommended stencil thickness (0.1 mm), solder paste area, and land pattern for reliable lead-free assembly.
How does the Pt-doped lifetime control affect reverse recovery behavior?
Pt doping creates uniform carrier lifetime distribution across the planar die, resulting in soft, monotonic reverse recovery without current snap-off or voltage overshoot. This is confirmed by trr test waveforms in Figure 14 and low VFRM (1 V) in Table 7, critical for EMI-sensitive automotive CAN/LIN interfaces.
Can PNE20020EXD-QX replace standard fast recovery diodes in existing 200 V designs?
Yes-its pin-compatible SOD323HP footprint, identical cathode/anode pinout, and superior trr (25 ns vs. typical 50–75 ns) allow drop-in replacement where layout space and thermal margin permit. However, verify VF impact on conduction loss and confirm snubber tuning due to lower Qrr (4 nC).
