Product details
Overview
DI9430T from Diodes Incorporated is a single P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET designed for high-side load switching in low-voltage DC-DC power management circuits. It features -20 V VDSS, 5.3 A continuous drain current at 25°C, 0.055 Ω RDS(ON) at VGS = -10 V, and SO-8 package with exposed drain pad for thermal performance - used in USB port protection and battery backup switchover circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DI9430T datasheet, DI9430T pinout, DI9430T application, or DI9430T equivalent, key selection criteria include verified RDS(ON) at -4.5 V gate drive, safe operating area under pulsed 15 A loads, thermal resistance validation for PCB copper area (RJA = 50°C/W @ 1 in²), and diode recovery time (trr = 80 ns) for synchronous rectifier compatibility.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates as a normally-off, voltage-controlled high-side switch with gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranging from -1.0 V to -3.0 V (min/max at 125°C), enabling robust turn-on control down to -4.5 V logic levels. Its DMOS cell structure delivers low on-resistance while maintaining fast switching (tD(ON) = 13 ns, tf = 28 ns) and high transient tolerance per JEDEC JESD47.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = -1.04 V at -5.3 A and trr = 80 ns, supporting bidirectional current handling in OR-ing and reverse-polarity protection topologies. Junction temperature range (-55°C to +150°C) and RJC = 25°C/W confirm suitability for thermally constrained industrial and automotive modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | -20 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche conduction in high-side switch configuration |
| RDS(ON) | 0.055 Ω @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -5.3 A - enables <110 mW conduction loss at full rated current |
| ID Continuous | ±5.3 A @ TA = 25°C - supports 5 V/3 A USB PD load switching with margin |
| trr | 80 ns - allows use in 1–2 MHz synchronous buck converters without shoot-through risk |
| RJA | 50 °C/W @ 1 in² 2 oz Cu - defines minimum PCB copper area needed to maintain TJ < 125°C at full power |
| Qg | 38 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~3.8 mA avg for 100 kHz switching) |
| VGS(th) | -1.0 to -3.0 V @ TJ = 125°C - ensures reliable turn-on with standard -5 V or -3.3 V logic-level gate drivers |
Pinout & Package
DI9430T uses an SO-8 plastic package with exposed drain pad (pin 1–4 and 6–8 are source/gate terminals; pins 5 and the exposed pad are drain). Thermal performance depends on soldered copper area beneath the drain pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Source | Common return path for load current; tied to system ground in high-side configuration |
| 5, Exposed Pad | Drain | Main power input terminal; requires direct thermal connection to PCB copper for RJA = 50°C/W |
| 6 | Gate | Control input; driven by logic-level signal to modulate channel conductivity |
| 7, 8 | Source | Additional source connections to reduce bond wire inductance and improve current sharing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High cell density DMOS technology | Enables 0.055 Ω RDS(ON) in SO-8 footprint - reduces board space vs. TO-252 alternatives |
| Low RDS(ON) at -4.5 V VGS | 0.067 Ω max - supports direct interface with 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting |
| Fast switching speed | tf = 28 ns - minimizes switching losses in 500 kHz–2 MHz DC-DC applications |
| Body diode with low VSD | -1.04 V @ -5.3 A - reduces forward drop and heat generation in OR-ing configurations |
| Transient thermal impedance | r(t) = 0.01 × RJA at 10 ms - sustains 15 A pulsed current without junction overheating |
Applications
| USB Power Delivery Switching | Battery Backup Switchover |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Selecting between main supply and USB-C PD input in portable medical monitors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel MOSFET controlling power path with reverse polarity protection. Use Value: RDS(ON) ≤ 0.055 Ω limits voltage drop to <280 mV at 5 A, preserving 5 V regulation margin. | Use Scenario: Seamless transition from AC adapter to Li-ion battery during brownout in industrial data loggers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Load switch enabling automatic OR-ing with <80 ns body diode recovery. Use Value: trr = 80 ns prevents cross-conduction during switchover, eliminating output glitch. |
| Reverse Polarity Protection | Hot-Swap Controller Interface |
Use Scenario: Protecting 12 V CAN bus nodes against accidental reversed DC jack insertion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: In-line P-MOSFET acting as ideal diode with controlled turn-on slew rate. Use Value: VGS(th) min = -1.0 V ensures full enhancement at -12 V supply, blocking reverse current. | Use Scenario: Gate driver stage for hot-swap FETs in telecom line cards requiring inrush limiting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-Qg (38 nC) switch enabling precise gate voltage ramp control via external RC. Use Value: Qgd/Qgs ratio of ~4:1 supports stable Miller plateau control during soft-start. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3020LFG-7 | RDS(ON) = 0.035 Ω @ -10 V but VDSS = -30 V; SO-8 with different pinout (drain on pins 1,2,3,4) | Higher voltage rating suits 24 V systems; incompatible pinout requires PCB redesign | Select only if higher VDSS margin is required and layout revision is acceptable |
| SI2301DDS-T1-BE3 | RDS(ON) = 0.115 Ω @ -4.5 V; SOT-23 package; lower current rating (2.7 A) | Limited to sub-3 A loads; unsuitable for 5 A USB PD or battery switchover | Use only for space-constrained, low-current applications where thermal budget permits higher RDS(ON) |
Compared with DMN3020LFG-7 and SI2301DDS-T1-BE3, DI9430T uniquely balances 5.3 A current capability, 0.055 Ω RDS(ON) at -10 V, SO-8 pin-compatibility with standard high-side layouts, and validated 80 ns body diode recovery - making it optimal for USB PD and battery OR-ing where thermal and timing margins are tight.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe continuous drain current for DI9430T at 70°C ambient?
At TA = 70°C with 1 in² of 2 oz. copper, DI9430T supports ±4.2 A continuous drain current. This derating follows from its 2.5 W maximum power dissipation and RJA = 50°C/W, ensuring junction temperature remains below 150°C under steady-state conditions.
Does DI9430T require a gate resistor for ESD protection?
Yes - a 10–100 Ω series gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing and limit peak current during fast edge transitions. The device's Qg = 38 nC and Ciss = 1430 pF make it susceptible to oscillation without proper gate drive impedance control.
Can DI9430T be used in parallel with identical units for higher current?
No - DI9430T lacks built-in current-sharing features such as matched VGS(th) or integrated sense resistors. Parallel operation risks thermal runaway due to RDS(ON) mismatch across temperature, and is not characterized or recommended in the datasheet.
Is the exposed drain pad electrically isolated from other pins?
No - the exposed drain pad is internally connected to pin 5 and forms the primary drain terminal. It must be soldered to a dedicated PCB copper pour tied to the drain net; floating or grounded connection will cause functional failure or damage.
