Product details
Overview
PXP010-20QX from Nexperia is a P-channel enhancement-mode Trench MOSFET in MLPAK33 (SOT8002-1) package, designed for high-side load switching with −20 V drain-source rating, 8.4 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = −4.5 V and Tj = 25 °C, and −17.1 A continuous drain current under pulsed conditions. It serves as a compact, thermally enhanced power switch in battery management and DC-DC converter high-side rails.
For engineers reviewing the PXP010-20QX datasheet, PXP010-20QX pinout, PXP010-20QX application, or PXP010-20QX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated thermal performance on FR4 PCB, confirmed MLPAK33 pin mapping, and real-world substitution guidance for high-side P-channel switching designs.
Technical Context
This device uses Trench MOSFET technology to achieve low gate threshold (−0.75 V typ) and stable RDS(on) across temperature-12.3 mΩ at Tj = 150 °C under −4.5 V drive. Its 8-terminal MLPAK33 package integrates four parallel drain leads and three parallel source leads to reduce parasitic inductance and improve current sharing.
The integrated body diode exhibits 105 ns reverse recovery time and 115 nC recovered charge at IS = −1.7 A, enabling efficient synchronous rectification in buck converters. Gate charge is optimized with 19.5 nC total QG, 5.2 nC QGD, and 1.5 V plateau voltage-supporting fast, low-loss switching at frequencies up to several hundred kHz.

Use Value: Four parallel drain terminals and 3× source terminals reduce package inductance, preventing voltage spikes during simultaneous rail activation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel high-side switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMT6009LPS-13 | RDS(on) = 9.5 mΩ @ −4.5 V; SO-8 package; higher Rth(j-a) (60 K/W vs 23 K/W) | Larger footprint (5 × 6 mm); less suitable for ultra-compact battery packs | Prefer when SO-8 compatibility or legacy layout reuse is required |
| PMN20XPEA | RDS(on) = 10.5 mΩ @ −4.5 V; 2×2 mm WLCSP; no exposed drain pad | No thermal pad-limited to ≤1.7 W continuous dissipation; unsuitable for >5 A loads | Choose only for space-critical wearable applications where power <2 W |
Compared with DMT6009LPS-13 and PMN20XPEA, PXP010-20QX delivers superior thermal performance (21 W vs ≤4.3 W), lower on-resistance (8.4 mΩ), and MLPAK33's optimized leadframe for high-current reliability-making it the preferred choice for sustained >5 A high-side switching in industrial and portable power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for PXP010-20QX at 100 °C ambient?
The maximum continuous drain current is −6.7 A at Tamb = 100 °C with VGS = −4.5 V, based on thermal derating curves in the datasheet. This value assumes mounting on an FR4 PCB with 6 cm² drain pad and accounts for junction temperature limit of 150 °C.
Can PXP010-20QX be used with 1.8 V GPIO for gate drive?
Yes-its typical gate threshold voltage is −0.75 V, and minimum is −0.5 V, ensuring reliable turn-on with 1.8 V logic. However, RDS(on) rises to ~20 mΩ at VGS = −1.8 V, so conduction loss increases; verify thermal margin at target load current.
Is the MLPAK33 package RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes-PXP010-20QX meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, as confirmed in Nexperia's official compliance documentation and material declarations available on their website.
Does the device include integrated ESD protection on the gate?
Yes-the gate oxide is rated for ±100 nA leakage at ±12 V, and the device passes HBM ESD testing per JESD22-A114 (≥2 kV), as specified in Nexperia's qualification reports for the MLPAK33 platform.
