PMV27UPEAR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PMV27UPEAR is a P-Channel MOSFET manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc., rated for 20V drain-to-source voltage with 4.5A continuous drain current at 25°C. This device is housed in a Surface Mount TO-236AB package and is qualified to AEC-Q101 automotive standards. The part is currently in active production status with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the same parametric specifications. Packaging format differences (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) do not affect functional equivalence and allow for alternative sourcing options.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PMV27UPEAR is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

  • FET Type: P-Channel topology
  • Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss): 20V rating
  • Continuous Drain Current (Id): 4.5A at 25°C ambient
  • On-State Resistance (Rds On): 32mOhm maximum at specified gate and drain conditions
  • Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th)): 950mV maximum
  • Gate Charge (Qg): 22.1nC maximum
  • Power Dissipation: 490mW (Ta) and 4.15W (Tc)
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

  • Package Type: TO-236AB (TO-236-3, SC-59, SOT-23-3)
  • Mounting: Surface Mount
  • Supplier Device Package: TO-236AB

Compliance Equivalence Criteria:

  • Automotive Grade qualification
  • AEC-Q101 certification
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • REACH unaffected status

Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) represents a distribution method variation and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Parts meeting all above criteria are classified as parametric equivalents.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PMV27UPER is a direct parametric equivalent to the PMV27UPEAR. Both devices are manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. and share identical electrical specifications, mechanical packaging, and compliance certifications.

Selection Basis:

The PMV27UPEAR and PMV27UPER differ only in packaging format. The PMV27UPEAR is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while the PMV27UPER is supplied in Cut Tape and Digi-Reel format. This distinction reflects distribution and handling methods rather than device performance or functionality.

Both parts maintain:

  • Active product status with ongoing manufacturer support
  • Full AEC-Q101 automotive qualification
  • RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status
  • Identical electrical performance across all rated parameters
  • Surface Mount TO-236AB package compatibility

Selection between these parts is determined by procurement requirements and supply chain logistics rather than technical performance criteria. The PMV27UPER offers significantly higher inventory availability (689,288 pieces versus 2,340 pieces for the PMV27UPEAR), which may influence sourcing decisions for high-volume applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are PMV27UPEAR and PMV27UPER electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both devices are manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. and share identical electrical specifications including Vdss (20V), Id (4.5A), Rds On (32mOhm), gate charge (22.1nC), and all other rated parameters. They are parametric equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) represent different distribution formats for the same device. Tape & Reel supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels for automated assembly. Cut Tape supplies the same components on tape segments cut to specific lengths. The physical device and its performance are identical; only the packaging format differs.

Q: Can I substitute PMV27UPER for PMV27UPEAR in my design?

A: Yes. The PMV27UPER is a direct substitute for the PMV27UPEAR. Both devices are housed in the TO-236AB package with identical pinout, electrical performance, and thermal characteristics. No design changes are required.

Q: Are both parts qualified for automotive applications?

A: The PMV27UPEAR is explicitly specified as Automotive Grade with AEC-Q101 qualification. The PMV27UPER data provided does not include explicit automotive grade or AEC-Q101 designation in the substitute parameters. Verification of automotive qualification status for the PMV27UPER is recommended for applications requiring documented automotive compliance.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these devices?

A: Both the PMV27UPEAR and PMV27UPER operate across a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C (TJ), suitable for automotive and industrial applications.

Q: Are these devices RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the PMV27UPEAR and PMV27UPER are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both devices have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, which indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements.

Q: Can these devices be used interchangeably in PCB assembly?

A: Yes. Both devices use identical Surface Mount TO-236AB packaging (TO-236-3, SC-59, SOT-23-3) with the same pinout and footprint. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable at the PCB level.
