PMEG6020EPA,115

Single Diodes Overview

The PMEG6020EPA,115 is a planar Schottky barrier rectifier with an integrated guard ring for stress protection. It operates with an average forward current of 2 A and a reverse voltage of 60 V. The device features a low forward voltage of 575 mV maximum at 2 A and a reverse current of 250 µA maximum at 60 V. Encapsulated in an ultra-thin DFN2020-3 (SOT1061) leadless SMD package, it includes an exposed heat sink cathode pad for thermal conductivity. The junction temperature range spans from -55 °C to 150 °C.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring low forward voltage drop and efficient thermal management within a compact footprint. The exposed cathode pad facilitates heat dissipation, supporting higher power densities. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the DFN2020-3 package dimensions and utilizes adequate copper area for the thermal pad to maintain junction temperatures within the specified 150 °C limit during operation.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia PMEG series of low VF Schottky barrier rectifiers. Unlike automotive-qualified variants which carry a '-Q' suffix, the PMEG6020EPA is designated as a non-automotive qualified product. It shares the same electrical specifications as other series members but is intended for general industrial and consumer electronics applications rather than automotive environments.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

For automotive-grade requirements, consider Nexperia parts explicitly marked with the '-Q' suffix, such as the PMEG6020ERA or PMEG6020EP, if available in the same package. Verify that any substitute maintains the 60 V reverse voltage and 2 A forward current ratings while matching the DFN2020-3 footprint for direct board compatibility.
