Product details

With a maximum gate charge of 6 nC at 4.5 V, the PMV100XPEA215 switches fast with modest drive current. In a 500 kHz buck converter the gate-drive loss stays low enough that the SOT-23 package can handle the dissipation without derating. The 386 pF input capacitance at 10 V Vds confirms the switching speed is limited more by the gate-drive impedance than by the device itself.

Thermal reality in a SOT-23

The 463 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient (Ta) is the number to use for board-level thermal design without a heatsink. The 4.45 W at case temperature (Tc) assumes a thermal pad or copper area on the PCB — in practice, layout engineers should stitch the SOT-23's tab via to a ground plane pour to keep junction temperature under 150°C at the 2.4 A continuous rating.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gate charge of the PMV100XPEA215?

The maximum gate charge is 6 nC at 4.5 V gate-source voltage. This low charge enables fast switching with minimal gate-drive power loss.

Can the PMV100XPEA215 be used for battery protection circuits?

Yes. The 20 V drain-source rating and 2.4 A continuous current cover single-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer protection (typically 4.2 V nominal) with margin. The 128 mOhm Rds(on) at 4.5 V keeps conduction losses low, and the P-Channel polarity allows high-side switching without a charge pump.
