Product details
Overview
BSS84PW from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode SIPMOS® small-signal MOSFET with −60 V drain-source voltage, 8 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = −10 V and ID = −0.15 A, −0.15 A continuous drain current, and logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) = −1 to −2 V). It is avalanche-rated, dv/dt-rated, and qualified per AEC-Q101 for automotive signal switching in low-power load control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BSS84PW datasheet, BSS84PW pinout, BSS84PW application, or BSS84PW equivalent, key selection criteria include its −60 V VDS, low gate threshold (−1.5 V typ), 0.3 W power dissipation at 25 °C, SOT-323 package footprint, and robust 2.61 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy rating.
Technical Context
This device operates as a normally-off P-channel switch requiring negative gate bias relative to source. Its logic-level threshold enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting. The integrated body diode supports reverse-current paths in bidirectional signal routing or protection circuits.
Thermal design relies on its 110 K/W junction-to-soldering-point thermal resistance and 350–420 K/W junction-to-ambient (depending on PCB copper area), with safe operating area defined up to −60 V and −0.15 A under DC conditions. Avalanche ruggedness is validated per single-pulse EAS testing at −25 V and −0.15 A.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −60 V - Maximum blocking voltage before breakdown; defines upper limit for high-side switch or level-shifted load applications. |
| RDS(on) | 8 Ω max at VGS = −10 V, ID = −0.15 A - Determines conduction loss and self-heating in steady-state switching. |
| ID (cont) | −0.15 A at TA = 25 °C - Continuous current capability constrained by 0.3 W power dissipation and thermal layout. |
| VGS(th) | −1.5 V typ - Ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level outputs; avoids marginal switching near 0 V. |
| EAS | 2.61 mJ - Quantifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling; critical for inductive load switching reliability. |
| Ciss | 15.3 pF typ at VGS = 0 V, VDS = −25 V - Influences gate drive strength requirements and switching speed. |
| Qg | 1.5 nC max - Total gate charge defining driver current demand during turn-on/turn-off transitions. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SOT-323 (SMD, 3-pin, 1.3 mm × 1.7 mm footprint), marked "YBs", supplied in tape-and-reel (3000 pcs/reel).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate (G) | Control terminal; accepts negative VGS to induce P-channel conduction; sensitive to ESD (±20 V max). |
| Pin 2 | Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive; connected to higher potential in high-side configurations; carries full load current. |
| Pin 3 | Drain (D) | Switched output node; connects to load; thermally coupled to PCB via solder pad (RthJS = 110 K/W). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Logic-level gate | VGS(th) = −1.5 V typ enables direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V MCUs without gate drivers. |
| dv/dt rated | 6 kV/μs rating prevents false turn-on during fast voltage transients in noisy environments. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including body electronics, sensor interfaces, and lighting control modules. |
| Halogen-free | Complies with IEC61249-2-21, supporting RoHS-compliant and environmentally regulated designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel small-signal MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK-7 | RDS(on) = 4.5 Ω max at VGS = −4.5 V; lower VGS(th) (−0.5 to −1.2 V); SOT-23 package. | Higher drive sensitivity but smaller thermal mass; less avalanche ruggedness (EAS not specified). | Prefer for space-constrained 3.3 V systems where gate drive margin is tight and avalanche stress is minimal. |
| FDV303P | RDS(on) = 4 Ω max at VGS = −4.5 V; VGS(th) = −0.6 to −1.5 V; same SOT-23 footprint. | No AEC-Q101 qualification; lower EAS rating (not specified); higher Ciss (25 pF). | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer-grade power switches where automotive reliability is not required. |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and FDV303P, the BSS84PW trades slightly higher RDS(on) for guaranteed avalanche performance, AEC-Q101 compliance, and tighter VGS(th) distribution-making it preferred for automotive and industrial environments with transient stress.

FAQ
Is BSS84PW suitable for high-side switching in 24 V automotive systems?
Yes. With −60 V VDS, AEC-Q101 qualification, and 2.61 mJ avalanche energy rating, it safely handles 24 V nominal systems plus load-dump transients up to ±40 V. Its −1.5 V typical VGS(th) ensures reliable turn-on using standard 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs without external level shifters.
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 85 °C ambient?
At TA = 85 °C, the derated continuous drain current is approximately −0.08 A, based on the ID vs. TA curve (Page 4) and 0.3 W Ptot limit. This assumes standard FR4 PCB with 6 cm² copper area; actual current depends on thermal layout and airflow.
Does BSS84PW have an integrated body diode, and what are its characteristics?
Yes. It includes a monolithic body diode with −0.15 A continuous forward current (IS) and −0.84 to −1.12 V forward voltage (VSD) at −0.15 A. Reverse recovery time is 23.6–35.4 ns, and Qrr is 11.6–17.4 nC-suitable for moderate-frequency freewheeling in low-power DC-DC or motor drive stages.
Can BSS84PW replace the BSS84 in existing designs?
Yes, with verification of marking and layout. BSS84PW is the PG-SOT-323 packaged variant of the BSS84 (which uses SOT-23). Both share identical electrical specs, but the PW version has improved thermal resistance (RthJA = 350 K/W vs. ~400 K/W for SOT-23) and is AEC-Q101 qualified-making it a drop-in upgrade for automotive or thermally demanding applications.
