PMEG040V050EPE-QZ

Nexperia · Schottky Diodes · TO-277

PMEG040V050EPE-QZ from Nexperia, in a TO-277. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A passive Anode of the Schottky diode; pins 1 and 2 are both anodes and should be tied together as printed in Table 2.
2 A passive Anode of the Schottky diode; pin 2 is one of the two anode pins listed in Table 2 alongside pin 1.
3 K passive Cathode of the Schottky diode; the datasheet's thermal data refers to the soldering point of this cathode tab, and the cathode mounting pad is specified at 1 cm² for the 2nd thermal case.
