Product details
Overview
PSMN2R5-40YLBX from Nexperia is a logic-level N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET optimized for high-current, high-efficiency power switching in 40 V systems. It delivers 2.6 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and 160 A continuous drain current (Tmb = 25 °C), features Schottky-Plus body diode with 0.8 V VSD and 25 ns trr, and is housed in the 175 °C-rated LFPAK56 (SOT669) package with copper-clip construction.
For engineers reviewing the PSMN2R5-40YLBX datasheet, PSMN2R5-40YLBX pinout, PSMN2R5-40YLBX application, or PSMN2R5-40YLBX equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5 V gate drive compatibility, 1.7 V typical VGS(th), 5 nC QGD, 1.02 K/W Rth(j-mb), and avalanche rating of 150 A IAS - all critical for DC-DC converters, motor control, and eFuse designs requiring robust SOA and low EMI.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Nexperia's NextPowerS3 Superjunction technology with Schottky-Plus body diode integration, enabling soft reverse recovery (tb = 12 ns) and low Qrr (15 nC) to reduce switching losses and system EMI. Its trench-gate structure yields low gate charge (QG(tot) = 25 nC @ 4.5 V) and fast switching (tf = 17 ns).
The LFPAK56 package uses solder die attach and exposed mounting base connected to drain, delivering 0.92 K/W typical thermal resistance from junction to mounting base and supporting wave soldering with visual joint inspection. It is qualified per AEC-Q101 stress tests up to 175 °C Tj.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current logic-level MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP026N04L | RDS(on) = 2.6 mΩ @ 10 V but higher QG (38 nC); no Schottky-Plus diode (trr = 45 ns) | Higher switching loss in high-frequency DC-DC; requires external diode for synchronous rectification | Prefer PSMN2R5-40YLBX where low EMI and body-diode performance are critical |
| Vishay SiR626DP | Same LFPAK56 package but RDS(on) = 2.9 mΩ @ 10 V; lower ID rating (140 A); untested for avalanche | Limited SOA and no guaranteed avalanche capability reduce margin in motor fault conditions | Prefer PSMN2R5-40YLBX for robotics or industrial loads demanding ruggedness and 160 A capacity |
Compared with IPP026N04L and SiR626DP, PSMN2R5-40YLBX offers superior body-diode softness, lower QGD, and 100 % avalanche testing - making it the optimal choice for high-reliability 48 V power stages where EMI, efficiency, and fault tolerance are co-constrained.

FAQ
Is PSMN2R5-40YLBX suitable for 3.3 V gate drive?
Yes - its 1.35 V minimum VGS(th) and 2.7 mΩ RDS(on) @ 4.5 V ensure reliable enhancement-mode turn-on with 3.3 V logic. However, RDS(on) rises to 3.3 mΩ max at 4.5 V, so 5 V or higher gate drive is recommended for lowest conduction loss.
What is the maximum safe operating area (SOA) in linear mode?
At Tmb = 25 °C, the device supports 40 V × 40 A for 100 ms in single-pulse linear mode (Fig. 3). Derating is required above 25 °C mounting base temperature; SOA is defined by thermal limits, not voltage breakdown, due to its trench superjunction structure.
Does the LFPAK56 package require special PCB layout considerations?
Yes - the mounting base must be connected to a large copper pour (minimum 25.4 mm², 70 µm thick) for optimal thermal performance. The footprint follows JEDEC MO-235 standards (SOT669), with wave-solderable leads requiring 0.6 mm wide solder dams and 1.27 mm pitch.
How is avalanche ruggedness verified for this part?
Nexperia performs 100 % unclamped inductive switching (UIS) testing at IAS = 150 A per unit. Each device is validated per AEC-Q101 stress conditions, with energy rating of 452 mJ (EDS(AL)) at Tj(init) = 25 °C - ensuring robustness against inductive kickback in motor and solenoid drives.
