Product details
Overview
PSMN5R0-40MSHX from Nexperia is a standard-level N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in LFPAK33 (SOT1210) package, rated 40 V VDS, 5 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and Tj = 25 °C, with 85 A continuous drain current capability at Tmb = 25 °C. It employs NextPower-S3 TrenchMOS Superjunction technology for high-efficiency synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the PSMN5R0-40MSHX datasheet, PSMN5R0-40MSHX pinout, PSMN5R0-40MSHX application, or PSMN5R0-40MSHX equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.61 K/W junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance, 3 nC typical QGD, soft-recovery body diode, avalanche-rated ruggedness (82.7 mJ), and LFPAK33's exposed-drain mounting base for low-inductance power routing.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchMOS Superjunction architecture optimized for high-frequency switching in secondary-side synchronous rectifiers and BLDC motor drives. Its gate charge profile features low QG(tot) (21 nC typ) and QGD (3 nC typ), enabling fast turn-on/turn-off with minimal voltage overshoot and EMI.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode with 25 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) and 18 nC recovered charge (Qr), delivering soft recovery behavior critical for ZVS/ZCS topologies. Thermal performance is anchored by clip-bonded die attach and solder-connected mounting base, supporting 175 °C continuous operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V–24 V input DC-DC and motor drive rails |
| RDS(on) | 3.9–5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A, critical for high-current rectification |
| ID | 85 A @ Tmb = 25 °C - Validated continuous current under ideal board-level thermal conditions |
| QGD | 0.9–6 nC - Low gate-drain charge minimizes Miller-induced switching delay and dv/dt-induced false turn-on |

| trr | 25 ns - Fast, soft reverse recovery limits voltage spikes and ringing during commutation in synchronous rectifiers |
| EAS | 127.6 mJ - Unclamped avalanche energy rating supports robust operation during transient overvoltage events |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK33 (SOT1210) is a leadless, clip-bonded surface-mount package with an exposed copper mounting base connected to the drain. It features no wire bonds or adhesive, enabling 175 °C operation, wave-solderable leads, and visual solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel source terminals reduce source inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications |

Use Scenario: Primary switch in constant-current LED drivers for street lighting and high-bay fixtures (36–48 V bus). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-duty-cycle, high-current switch in buck or buck-boost topology operating at 100–500 kHz. Use Value: Low RDS(on) and soft diode recovery suppress audible noise and EMI, meeting Class B CISPR-15 requirements without added filtering. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP040N04L | 4.0 mΩ RDS(on), 100 A ID, TO-252 package, higher QG (32 nC) | Larger footprint, higher thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) ≈ 40 K/W), less suitable for ultra-thin PCBs | Prefer when board space allows larger package and higher peak current is required |
| Vishay SI7850DP | 4.5 mΩ RDS(on), 75 A ID, PowerPAK SO-8, 150 °C rating, QGD = 4.5 nC | Lower max junction temperature, wire-bonded construction, higher parasitic inductance than LFPAK33 | Choose when legacy SO-8 compatibility is mandatory and 175 °C operation is not required |
Compared with IPP040N04L and SI7850DP, PSMN5R0-40MSHX delivers superior thermal performance via its clip-bonded LFPAK33 mounting base, lower QGD for cleaner high-frequency switching, and full 175 °C qualification-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability, high-frequency power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PSMN5R0-40MSHX under real-world PCB conditions?
The datasheet specifies 85 A at Tmb = 25 °C with ideal thermal design. In practice, sustained current is limited by PCB copper area, thermal vias, and ambient temperature. With 25.4 mm × 25.4 mm 70 µm copper on FR4, derating to ~50–60 A at Tmb = 100 °C is typical. Peak pulsed current remains 349 A for <10 µs.
Can PSMN5R0-40MSHX be used in avalanche mode repeatedly?
No-its 82.7 mJ EAS rating applies only to single, unclamped inductive switching events. The device is 100% tested for single-pulse avalanche ruggedness but is not qualified for repetitive avalanche operation. System design must avoid repeated avalanche stress to ensure reliability.
How does the LFPAK33 package improve thermal performance versus SO-8?
LFPAK33 replaces wire bonds with clip bonding and uses a solder-connected mounting base directly tied to the drain. This yields Rth(j-mb) = 1.61 K/W-over 3× better than typical SO-8 (≈5–6 K/W)-and eliminates bond-wire failure mechanisms, enabling reliable 175 °C operation and higher power density.
Is the body diode suitable for freewheeling in high-frequency inverter applications?
Yes-the intrinsic body diode exhibits soft reverse recovery (trr = 25 ns, Qr = 18 nC) and low forward voltage (VSD = 0.82 V @ 20 A). This enables efficient freewheeling in BLDC and H-bridge inverters up to 50 kHz without external diodes or snubbers, reducing component count and EMI.
