Applications
The PMEG3020EP,115 is used as an output rectifier and freewheeling diode in DC-DC converters, battery chargers, and switched-mode power supplies operating up to 30V. Its low 0.36V forward drop reduces heat dissipation in high-efficiency 2A power paths for IoT gateways, set-top boxes, and automotive infotainment modules. It is also applied in reverse-polarity protection circuits on 12V and 24V power rails where a low-loss series diode is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 0.36V forward voltage of the PMEG3020EP,115 improve efficiency versus a standard PN rectifier diode?
A standard silicon PN rectifier typically drops 0.6–0.7V at 1A, whereas the PMEG3020EP,115 Schottky drops only 0.36V at its 2A rated current. This reduces conduction power loss by roughly 50%, which is significant in high-frequency converter output stages handling continuous 2A current on 5V or 12V rails where thermal budget is limited.
Can the PMEG3020EP,115 be used as a freewheeling diode in a 24V motor drive application?
Yes. The PMEG3020EP,115 is rated for 30V reverse voltage and 2A forward current, making it compatible with 24V motor drive freewheeling applications where inductive kickback spikes must be clamped. The SOD128 package also dissipates heat efficiently via PCB copper, supporting continuous freewheeling duty cycles at ambient temperatures up to 125°C junction limit.
What does the SOD128 package offer over SOD123 for high-current Schottky rectifier applications?
The SOD128 flat-lead package has a larger die pad and two solder leads compared to the single-lead SOD123, allowing it to carry up to 2A continuous forward current with lower thermal resistance. This makes the PMEG3020EP,115 in SOD128 more suitable than SOD123 variants when the application demands both 30V blocking and sustained 2A rectification without an external heatsink.
