Product details
Overview
DMG3404L-13 from Diodes Incorporated is an N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SOT23 package, rated for 30V VDSS, 25 mΩ RDS(ON) @ 10V VGS, and 5.8A continuous drain current at +25°C. It delivers low conduction loss and fast switching for compact DC-DC converters, battery charging circuits, and portable power adaptors.
For engineers reviewing the DMG3404L-13 datasheet, DMG3404L-13 pinout, DMG3404L-13 application, or DMG3404L-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(ON) at 4.5V (35 mΩ), thermal resistance (96 °C/W with thermal bias), gate charge (13.2 nC), and SOT23 footprint compatibility in space-constrained power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a planar silicon process optimized for low RDS(ON) while maintaining controlled gate charge (Qg = 13.2 nC) and low output capacitance (Coss = 66 pF). Its gate threshold voltage (1.0–2.0 V) enables reliable turn-on with 3.3V and 5V logic-level drivers.
The device exhibits normalized RDS(ON) increase of ≤1.4× from –55°C to +150°C at VGS = 4.5V, supporting stable operation across industrial temperature ranges. Diode forward voltage is 0.75 V typical at 1 A, enabling efficient synchronous rectification or reverse polarity protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage in high-side or low-side switch configurations |
| RDS(ON) @ 10V | 25 mΩ - Enables <145 mW conduction loss at 5.8 A, critical for thermally constrained PCBs |
| RDS(ON) @ 4.5V | 35 mΩ - Supports direct drive from 3.3V/5V microcontrollers without level-shifting |
| Qg | 13.2 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching transition time |
| Ciss | 641 pF - Impacts gate drive loop stability and EMI generation during hard switching |
| RθJA (thermal bias) | 96 °C/W - Specifies junction-to-ambient rise under recommended 1-inch² copper thermal pad |
| ID (continuous, 70°C) | 4.9 A - Real-world current limit in ambient temperatures up to 70°C with thermal bias |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - Surface-mount plastic package with 3-terminal configuration, 2.9 mm × 1.35 mm footprint, UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, and matte tin-plated copper leadframe.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main current-carrying terminal (high-side or low-side switch node) | Connected to load or supply rail; handles full switched current and must be routed with adequate copper area |
| Gate (G) | Control input for channel conduction | High-impedance node requiring low-inductance gate drive path; sensitive to ringing due to Ciss/Crss |
| Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive and current return path | Must be tied directly to power ground plane; serves as common reference for VGS and body diode cathode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(ON) at 4.5V | 35 mΩ enables efficient 3.3V-driven load switches in USB-powered devices |
| Fast switching speed | tF = 5.2 ns and tD(OFF) = 22 ns support >1 MHz DC-DC operation with minimal dead-time loss |
| Low input capacitance | Ciss = 641 pF reduces gate drive power and improves EMI profile vs. higher-Ciss alternatives |
| Green, RoHS-compliant construction | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb) meets IPC-1752A reporting requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3025LSD-13 | 30V, 2.5 mΩ RDS(ON) @ 10V, SO-8 package, higher Qg (22 nC) | Requires larger PCB area and stronger gate driver; better for high-current, lower-frequency (>100 kHz) designs | Select when thermal budget allows SO-8 and peak current exceeds 10 A |
| AO3400 | 30V, 28 mΩ RDS(ON) @ 10V, SOT23, Qg = 17 nC, Ciss = 720 pF | Slightly higher conduction loss and gate drive demand; identical footprint but less optimized for 4.5V drive | Choose if AO3400 is already qualified in legacy BOM and 4.5V RDS(ON) margin is acceptable |
Compared with DMN3025LSD-13 and AO3400, the DMG3404L-13 offers the best balance of low 4.5V RDS(ON), moderate Qg, and SOT23 size-making it optimal for space-limited, 3.3V/5V-driven, sub-6A power switches where thermal headroom is constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for DMG3404L-13 at 70°C ambient?
The DMG3404L-13 supports 4.9 A continuous drain current at TA = +70°C when mounted on an FR-4 PCB with thermal bias to a 1-inch² copper plate (Note 6, datasheet DS37640 Rev. 2-2). This reflects derating from the 5.8 A rating at +25°C due to thermal resistance (RθJA = 96 °C/W).
Can DMG3404L-13 be driven directly by a 3.3V GPIO?
Yes-its gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH)) ranges from 1.0 V to 2.0 V, and RDS(ON) is specified at 35 mΩ with VGS = 4.5 V. At 3.3V, it achieves partial enhancement; for full conduction and minimal loss, a 4.5V or 5V gate drive is recommended, though many 3.3V systems operate it acceptably with margin.
Is the SOT23 package of DMG3404L-13 lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes-the DMG3404L-13 uses matte tin annealed over copper leadframe, contains no purposely added lead, and meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS 2). It is also halogen- and antimony-free ("Green" per Diodes' definition: <900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb).
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for single-pulse operation?
Per Figure 11 in DS37640, the DMG3404L-13 supports 30 A pulsed drain current (IDM) for pulse widths ≤10 µs and duty cycle ≤1%. At longer pulses (e.g., 100 µs), the SOA is limited by RDS(ON) heating and junction temperature-maximum VDS drops to ~12 V at 30 A for 100 µs.
