Product details
Overview
DMG3415U-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SOT23 package, rated for -20V VDSS, 42.5mΩ RDS(ON) at VGS = -4.5V and -4.0A ID, with AEC-Q101 qualification and 3kV ESD protection. It serves as a low-side load switch or synchronous rectifier in compact DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the DMG3415U-13 datasheet, DMG3415U-13 pinout, DMG3415U-13 application, or DMG3415U-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed RDS(ON) at low gate drive (-1.8V to -4.5V), thermal resistance (RθJA = 139°C/W), switching speed (tF = 393ns), and automotive-grade reliability per AEC-Q101.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar trench-gate technology optimized for low RDS(ON) while maintaining fast turn-off (tD(OFF) = 795ns) and low gate charge (Qg = 9.1nC). Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH) = -0.3 to -1.0V) enables reliable turn-on with logic-level controllers down to 1.8V supply rails.
The device integrates an ESD-protected structure (HBM 3kV) and exhibits low input capacitance (Ciss = 294pF) and reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 25pF), supporting high-frequency operation in buck converter topologies with minimal Miller effect.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | -20V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; supports 12V rail systems with margin. |
| RDS(ON) | 42.5mΩ @ VGS = -4.5V, ID = -4.0A - Enables <170mW conduction loss at full rated current. |
| Qg | 9.1nC - Low total gate charge reduces driver power and enables efficient 1–2MHz switching. |
| tF | 393ns - Fast fall time minimizes overlap loss in synchronous rectification. |
| RθJA | 139°C/W - Thermal performance validated on FR-4 PCB with minimum pad layout; limits max ambient to ~80°C at full power. |
| VGS(TH) | -0.55V typical - Ensures robust turn-on with 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
| Crss | 25pF - Low reverse transfer capacitance suppresses dv/dt-induced false turn-on in high-side configurations. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - surface-mount plastic package with matte tin-annealed copper leadframe; moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020; weight ≈ 0.008g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Source) | Current return path for P-channel device | Connected to higher potential (e.g., input rail); forms common node with body diode anode. |
| 2 (Gate) | Control terminal for channel formation | Driven negative relative to source; low Ciss (294pF) eases driving from microcontroller GPIOs. |
| 3 (Drain) | Current output terminal | Connected to load or switching node; exposed drain pad improves thermal dissipation in PCB layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(ON) at 1.8V drive | 71mΩ @ VGS = -1.8V, ID = -2.0A - enables direct control from battery-powered MCU outputs. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Qualified for automotive applications including engine control modules and body electronics - no derating required for temperature cycling or humidity exposure. |
| ESD protection | HBM rating of ±3kV - eliminates need for external ESD clamps in space-constrained portable designs. |
| Green RoHS compliance | Lead-free, halogen-free, antimony-free - meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements for Tier 1 automotive suppliers. |
| Fast switching with low Qgd | Qgd = 1.7nC - reduces Miller plateau duration and improves controllability during hard-switching transitions. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | USB Power Delivery Switch |
|---|---|
|

Use Value: Ultra-low IDSS (<1µA) prevents battery drain; 3kV ESD protection survives handling in unshielded factory 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMP2045U | RDS(ON) = 45mΩ @ -4.5V (vs. 42.5mΩ); Qg = 10.5nC (vs. 9.1nC); same SOT23 package | Slightly higher conduction loss and gate drive requirement; identical thermal footprint | Acceptable drop-in where <0.5mΩ RDS(ON) margin is acceptable and layout reuse is critical. |
| AO3401 | RDS(ON) = 44mΩ @ -4.5V; VGS(TH) = -0.7 to -1.3V (wider range); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Less predictable turn-on at low VGS; unsuitable for automotive or mission-critical industrial use | Cost-sensitive consumer designs where AEC-Q101 is not mandated and tighter VGS(TH) distribution is unnecessary. |
Compared with DMP2045U and AO3401, DMG3415U-13 delivers lower gate charge and tighter VGS(TH) distribution, enabling more deterministic timing in high-frequency synchronous rectifiers and better compatibility with 1.8V logic controllers - critical for battery-powered and automotive applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for DMG3415U-13 at 70°C ambient?
The maximum continuous drain current is -3.5A at TA = +70°C, derated from -4.0A at +25°C per the thermal resistance RθJA = 139°C/W and power dissipation limit of 0.9W. This assumes standard FR-4 PCB with minimum recommended copper pad area.
Is DMG3415U-13 suitable for high-side switching configurations?
No - DMG3415U-13 is a P-channel MOSFET optimized for low-side switching. Its gate threshold voltage and lack of integrated level-shifting circuitry make it unsuitable for direct high-side use with ground-referenced controllers; external gate driver or charge pump is required for such topologies.
Does DMG3415U-13 include intrinsic body diode functionality?
Yes - it features an integrated body diode with forward voltage VSD ≈ 0.85V at IS = 1A and TA = 25°C, enabling freewheeling current paths in buck converters and reverse-polarity protection when used as a load switch.
What is the meaning of "PPAP Capable" in the DMG3415U-13 datasheet?
"PPAP Capable" indicates Diodes Incorporated can provide Production Part Approval Process documentation (including PSW, control plans, and process capability studies) for DMG3415U-13 upon customer request - a requirement for Tier 1 automotive suppliers under AIAG standards.
