Product details
Overview
PSMN2R5-40YLD from Nexperia is an N-channel logic-level power MOSFET in LFPAK56 (SOT669) package, rated for 40 V VDS, 2.6 mΩ RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V / Tj = 25 °C, and 160 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C. It employs NextPower-S3 Schottky-Plus technology for soft-recovery body diode operation and is optimized for high-efficiency synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the PSMN2R5-40YLD datasheet, PSMN2R5-40YLD pinout, PSMN2R5-40YLD application, or PSMN2R5-40YLD equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5 V gate drive compatibility, 175 °C junction-rated LFPAK56 thermal performance, avalanche ruggedness (150 A IAS), and low QGD/QRR for EMI-sensitive switching designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchMOS Superjunction architecture with copper-clip die attach and solder die bonding in a thermally enhanced LFPAK56 package, enabling 0.92 K/W Rth(j-mb). Its Schottky-Plus body diode delivers VSD = 0.8 V @ IS = 25 A and trr = 31 ns with soft recovery-critical for minimizing voltage overshoot in hard-switched topologies.
The device is fully characterized for linear-mode SOA operation up to 175 °C, supports 100% tested unclamped avalanche energy (EDS(AL) = 452 mJ), and features gate charge parameters optimized for 4.5 V drive: QG(tot) = 25 nC and QGD = 5.9 nC @ VGS = 4.5 V, enabling fast, low-loss switching in high-frequency power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum drain-source voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 12 V/24 V bus applications |
| RDS(on) | 2.6 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A, critical for high-current power stages |
| ID(cont) | 160 A @ Tmb = 25 °C - validated continuous current rating, limited by PCB thermal design in practice |
| QG(tot) | 25 nC @ VGS = 4.5 V - determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in 4.5 V logic-driven systems |
| trr | 31 ns - ultra-fast reverse recovery time of integrated Schottky-Plus diode reduces switching losses and EMI in synchronous rectifiers |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.92 K/W - low junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance enables direct heatsinking via exposed drain pad |
| IAS | 150 A - 100% avalanche-tested single-pulse current rating ensures robustness against inductive load transients |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK56 (SOT669) is a 4-terminal surface-mount power package featuring an exposed copper mounting base connected to drain, three parallel source leads, and one gate lead. Its copper-clip construction and solder die attach deliver superior thermal and electrical performance versus standard SO-8.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel low-inductance source connections reduce common-source inductance and improve switching stability |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 0.7 Ω typical gate resistance - compatible with standard logic-level drivers without external gate resistor |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain (D) | Exposed copper drain pad enables direct thermal path to PCB copper pour or heatsink; also serves as primary current return path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| NextPower-S3 Schottky-Plus body diode | Soft reverse recovery (tr = 17 ns, tf = 14 ns) and low Qr = 25 nC minimize voltage spikes and EMI in synchronous rectifier operation |
| 175 °C qualified LFPAK56 package | Copper-clip + solder die attach construction achieves 0.92 K/W Rth(j-mb), supporting high ambient temperature industrial and automotive under-hood designs |
| Optimized for 4.5 V gate drive | RDS(on) = 2.7 mΩ @ VGS = 4.5 V - enables full enhancement with standard microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting |
| Avalanche ruggedness | 100% tested IAS = 150 A and EDS(AL) = 452 mJ - eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching circuits |
| Low parasitic inductance | Three parallel source pins and exposed drain pad reduce loop inductance - improves dV/dt immunity and reduces ringing in high-speed switching |
Applications
| High-Performance Synchronous Rectification | DC-to-DC Converters |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Used as secondary-side switch in isolated 48 V–12 V buck-derived telecom and server PSUs operating at 300–500 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power MOSFET performing synchronous rectification to replace Schottky diodes, driven by controller's complementary PWM output. Use Value: 2.6 mΩ RDS(on) cuts conduction loss by >60% vs. 40 V Schottky, while soft-recovery diode eliminates 30–50 V voltage spikes during dead-time transitions. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power switch controlled by integrated PWM controller with 4.5 V gate drive capability. Use Value: Low QG(tot) (25 nC @ 4.5 V) enables efficient 1 MHz switching with minimal gate driver loss; 175 °C rating supports sealed enclosure operation. |
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Battery Protection |
|
Use Scenario: Low-side phase switch in 24 V BLDC motor inverters for e-bike controllers and power tools. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current, high-dV/dt capable MOSFET handling 100+ A peak currents during commutation. Use Value: Avalanche rating (150 A IAS) absorbs inductive kickback during rapid PWM transitions; strong SOA supports linear-mode braking without failure. |
Use Scenario: Main discharge FET in smart Li-ion battery packs for portable medical devices requiring overcurrent and short-circuit protection. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Load switch configured in eFuse topology with current-sense amplifier feedback. Use Value: 160 A continuous rating allows headroom for 50 A nominal loads; low RDS(on) minimizes voltage drop across pack terminals during high-current discharge. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V logic-level MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP026N04L | RDS(on) = 2.6 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, but higher QG(tot) = 41 nC @ 4.5 V; TO-220FP package | Larger footprint and higher Rth(j-a) (45 K/W) limits high-frequency power density | Prefer when through-hole mounting or legacy TO-220 layout reuse is required; avoid in space-constrained 500 kHz+ designs |
| Vishay SiR872DP | RDS(on) = 2.5 mΩ @ 10 V, but no avalanche rating; PowerPAK SO-8 package with Rth(j-mb) = 1.2 K/W | Unrated for unclamped inductive switching - requires external clamping in motor control | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-avalanche-critical DC-DC applications where thermal margin exceeds 20 °C |
Compared with IPP026N04L and SiR872DP, PSMN2R5-40YLD uniquely combines 175 °C qualification, 150 A avalanche testing, and 0.92 K/W thermal resistance in a surface-mount LFPAK56 package-enabling higher reliability in compact, high-temperature, and transient-heavy applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PSMN2R5-40YLD at 100 °C mounting base temperature?
At Tmb = 100 °C, the continuous drain current is derated to 121 A per Figure 2 of the datasheet. This value reflects thermal limitation of the LFPAK56 package under real-world PCB thermal conditions-not silicon capability-and assumes adequate copper area and airflow.
Does PSMN2R5-40YLD require a gate resistor for typical 4.5 V logic-level driving?
No external gate resistor is required for stability with standard logic-level drivers due to its 0.7 Ω typical intrinsic gate resistance and optimized gate charge profile. However, a 2.2–4.7 Ω series resistor is recommended to dampen potential gate ringing in high-dI/dt layouts with long traces.
How does the Schottky-Plus body diode differ from a standard MOSFET body diode in practical operation?
The Schottky-Plus diode exhibits VSD = 0.8 V @ 25 A and trr = 31 ns with soft recovery (low dI/dt during turn-off), reducing voltage overshoot by up to 40% compared to conventional body diodes. This eliminates snubber networks in synchronous rectifier designs and lowers EMI filter requirements.
Can PSMN2R5-40YLD be wave soldered, and what is the recommended footprint?
Yes-the exposed mounting base and gull-wing leads are qualified for wave soldering. Per Figure 19, the recommended footprint uses 0.6 mm wide × 4.826 mm long solder lands with 1.27 mm pitch and 1.78 mm pad spacing to ensure visual solder joint inspection and void-free copper-clip attachment.
