Product details
Overview
DMG3401LSNQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 30V P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SC59 package, featuring 50mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = −10V, −3.7A continuous drain current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use. It serves as a high-efficiency load switch in low-voltage DC-DC converters and backlight dimming circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DMG3401LSNQ-7 datasheet, DMG3401LSNQ-7 pinout, DMG3401LSNQ-7 application, or DMG3401LSNQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (−0.5 to −1.3V), low-input capacitance (1326pF Ciss), thermal resistance (105°C/W RθJA on 2oz copper), and automotive-grade reliability under IATF16949 manufacturing.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates in enhancement mode with negative gate control logic, requiring VGS ≤ −1.0V to fully turn on. Its low RDS(on) at −4.5V (60mΩ) enables efficient operation in 3.3V/5V logic-driven power rails.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = −0.8 to −1.0V at −1A, supporting synchronous rectification and reverse-current blocking in buck converters and H-bridge motor drivers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | −30V - supports input rails up to 24V automotive systems with margin |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = −10V | 50mΩ max - enables <185mW conduction loss at 3.7A |
| ID continuous @ TA = +25°C | −3.7A - sufficient for 5W load switching with derating |
| Ciss | 1326pF - limits gate drive power and switching speed in 1MHz-class converters |
| Qg @ VGS = −10V | 25.1nC - determines minimum gate driver peak current for <20ns rise time |
| TJ range | −55°C to +150°C - validated for under-hood automotive environments |
| RθJA (2oz Cu) | 105°C/W - defines maximum power dissipation (1.14W) before thermal shutdown |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC59 - surface-mount, 3-pin, lead-free molded plastic housing with matte tin annealed terminals; moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020; weight ≈0.014g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Power output node | Connected to load return path; handles full switched current and dissipates heat via PCB copper pad |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives negative logic signal; requires ≥−10V swing for minimal RDS(on); sensitive to ESD (±12V rating) |
| Source (S) | Reference node | Bonded to internal substrate; tied to system ground or high-side rail; forms common return for body diode conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) at −4.5V | 60mΩ max - enables direct interface with 3.3V microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock - supports PPAP documentation |
| Green packaging | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb) - complies with EU RoHS 3 and automotive ELV directives |
| Low Ciss/Crss ratio | 1326pF / 71pF - improves Miller immunity and reduces gate oscillation risk in high-dV/dt environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3026LSD-13 | Same SC59 package; lower RDS(on) (30mΩ @ −10V) but higher Qg (34nC); no AEC-Q101 rating | Suitable for commercial-grade DC-DC converters where automotive qualification is not required | Select when lower conduction loss outweighs gate drive complexity and qualification needs |
| SI2301DS-T1-BE3 | SC70 package; higher RDS(on) (115mΩ @ −4.5V); same −30V rating and AEC-Q101 qualification | Fits space-constrained designs where thermal performance is secondary to footprint size | Select only if board area is critical and 2.7A max current suffices |
Compared with DMN3026LSD-13 and SI2301DS-T1-BE3, the DMG3401LSNQ-7 uniquely balances automotive qualification, 3.7A current capability, and 60mΩ RDS(on) at logic-level −4.5V drive-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained automotive power switches.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for DMG3401LSNQ-7 in continuous DC applications?
The absolute maximum drain-source voltage (VDSS) is −30V, verified per DS37966 Rev. 2-2. Operation above −27V is not recommended for long-term reliability in automotive environments due to derating requirements. At −24V, the device maintains full −3.7A current capability with RDS(on) increase limited to <15% over nominal.
Can DMG3401LSNQ-7 be driven directly by a 3.3V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from −0.5V to −1.3V, so a 3.3V GPIO pulled low (0V) while source is at 3.3V yields VGS = −3.3V, well within the −4.5V condition where RDS(on) is specified at 60mΩ. No level shifter is needed for basic on/off control.
Is the body diode of DMG3401LSNQ-7 suitable for reverse-current protection in USB-C applications?
Yes - the body diode has VSD = −0.8 to −1.0V at −1A and supports continuous reverse current up to −1.5A. In USB-C sink configurations, it blocks reverse current from VBUS to the host when the MOSFET is off, meeting USB PD 3.1 reverse-conduction requirements without external diode addition.
How does the thermal performance of DMG3401LSNQ-7 compare between FR-4 and 2oz copper PCB layouts?
On standard FR-4 with minimum pad layout, RθJA is 159°C/W (PD = 0.8W). With 2oz copper and 1-inch square pad, RθJA improves to 105°C/W (PD = 1.2W). This 34% thermal resistance reduction allows 50% higher power handling - critical for sustained 3.3A operation in enclosed automotive enclosures.
