Product details
Overview
PSMN2R8-40YSBX from Nexperia is an N-channel standard-level MOSFET in LFPAK56 (SOT669) package, rated for 40 V VDS, 2.8 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and Tj = 25 °C, and 160 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C. It employs NextPowerS3 Schottky-Plus technology to deliver soft body-diode recovery, low Qrr (17 nC), and 6 dB improved EMC performance - deployed in high-current DC-DC converters and brushed/BLDC motor control stages.
For engineers reviewing the PSMN2R8-40YSBX datasheet, PSMN2R8-40YSBX pinout, PSMN2R8-40YSBX application, or PSMN2R8-40YSBX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance (Rth(j-mb) = 0.92 K/W), avalanche ruggedness (IAS = 150 A, 100% tested), and LFPAK56 mounting-base thermal interface details critical for high-power board-level reliability.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchMOS Superjunction architecture with Schottky-Plus body diode integration, enabling low VSD (0.8 V at IS = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C) and soft reverse recovery (trr = 27 ns, Qr = 17 nC). Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 3.1 V typ.) and plateau voltage (VGS(pl) = 4.5 V) support robust standard-level drive compatibility without requiring level-shifting circuitry.
The device is qualified to 175 °C junction temperature and features copper-clip die attach with exposed mounting base connected to drain - delivering low parasitic inductance and resistance while enabling wave soldering and visual solder-joint inspection. Its SOA supports linear-mode operation up to 210 mJ unclamped avalanche energy at Tj(init) = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum drain-source voltage - defines safe blocking capability in 36 V nominal systems like 48 V battery-powered industrial drives. |
| RDS(on) | 2.4–2.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1 W conduction loss at 100 A, critical for high-efficiency power stages. |
| ID (cont) | 160 A at Tmb = 25 °C - validated continuous current rating under optimized PCB thermal layout, not theoretical limit. |
| QG(tot) | 37 nC typical total gate charge - determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in hard-switched topologies. |
| Qrr | 17 nC recovered charge - directly reduces EMI and switching losses during body-diode commutation in synchronous rectifiers. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.92 K/W typical junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance - enables direct thermal coupling to heatsink or copper plane without thermal pad. |
| VSD | 0.8 V forward voltage at IS = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - lowers freewheeling loss vs. conventional MOSFET body diodes. |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK56 (SOT669) is a 4-terminal surface-mount plastic package with copper-clip construction, qualified to 175 °C. Mounting base is electrically connected to drain and serves as primary thermal path. Exposed leads support wave soldering and visual solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel source terminals reduce bond-wire inductance and improve current sharing in high-frequency switching. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate terminal with low RG (0.7 Ω typ.) - minimizes gate oscillation risk and supports fast turn-on/turn-off with moderate gate resistance. |
| Mounting Base | Drain (D) | Exposed copper base tied internally to drain - provides low-inductance, low-resistance thermal and power path to PCB heatsink area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| NextPowerS3 Schottky-Plus body diode | Soft recovery (ta = 14 ns, tb = 13 ns), low VSD (0.8 V), and low Qr (17 nC) reduce EMI and boost efficiency in freewheeling paths. |
| Avalanche ruggedness | 100% tested at IAS = 150 A - ensures robustness against inductive load transients without external snubbers in motor drives. |
| Strong SOA rating | 210 mJ unclamped avalanche energy at Tj(init) = 25 °C - supports reliable linear-mode operation in eFuse and hot-swap applications. |
| EMC-optimized design | Up to 6 dB improvement in radiated emissions - achieved via reduced parasitic capacitance (Ciss = 3259 pF typ.) and controlled dV/dt slew rate. |
| 175 °C qualified LFPAK56 package | Copper-clip die attach and solder die bonding - eliminates wire bonds, improves thermal cycling reliability, and enables high-power density layouts. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PSMN2R8-40YSBX under real-world PCB conditions?
The datasheet specifies 160 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C with optimized thermal layout (copper area ≥25.4 mm², 70 µm thick FR4). In practice, achievable current depends on mounting base temperature: at Tmb = 100 °C, derated ID drops to 116 A. Thermal design must maintain Tj ≤ 175 °C using the measured Rth(j-mb) = 0.92 K/W.
Does PSMN2R8-40YSBX support standard-level gate drive, and what is its gate threshold voltage range?
Yes - it is a standard-level MOSFET with VGS(th) = 2.4–3.6 V (typ. 3.1 V) at Tj = 25 °C and ΔVGS(th)/ΔT = −6.9 mV/K. This allows direct interfacing with 5 V or 3.3 V microcontrollers without gate drivers, provided sufficient gate charge (QG(tot) = 37 nC) is delivered within required switching times.
How is the LFPAK56 package different from traditional SO-8 in terms of thermal and electrical performance?
LFPAK56 replaces bond wires with copper clips and uses solder die attach instead of epoxy, reducing Rth(j-mb) to 0.92 K/W (vs. ~2.5 K/W for SO-8) and lowering parasitic inductance by >50%. The exposed mounting base connects directly to drain and PCB copper, enabling wave soldering and eliminating thermal interface material requirements.
Is PSMN2R8-40YSBX qualified for automotive applications?
No - this device is not automotive-qualified. The datasheet explicitly states "Non-automotive qualified products" and confirms no AEC-Q101 testing or qualification. It is intended for industrial, automation, robotics, and commercial power applications where 175 °C operation and high reliability are required, but automotive-grade stress screening is not mandated.
