Product details
Overview
DMN15M3UCA6-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in a 6-pin DSN2718 package, rated for 14.5V VSSS, 4.8mΩ RSS(ON) @ VGS = 3.8V, and 16.5A continuous source current at TA = +25°C. It serves as a low-profile load switch or battery protection device in space-constrained portable power systems.
For engineers reviewing the DMN15M3UCA6-7 datasheet, DMN15M3UCA6-7 pinout, DMN15M3UCA6-7 application, or DMN15M3UCA6-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low on-resistance at low gate drive (≤3.8V), 0.21mm height for thin-profile PCBs, ESD-protected gate, and AEC-Q101 readiness for automotive-grade reliability validation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate silicon process optimized for simultaneous low RSS(ON) and fast switching, with gate threshold voltage VGS(TH) tightly distributed between 0.5V and 1.3V. Its dynamic parameters-Ciss = 2360pF, Qg = 35.2nC, and tF = 3812ns-support efficient operation in high-frequency DC-DC converters and smart load switches.
The device integrates monolithic ESD protection on the gate terminal and uses NiAu/NiPdAu-plated terminals compatible with lead-free reflow. Thermal resistance RθJA is 51.5°C/W under recommended FR-4 pad layout, enabling 2.4W power dissipation at TA = +25°C without forced cooling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VSSS | 14.5V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche conduction; suitable for 12V rail and Li-ion battery systems (3–4 cells). |
| RSS(ON) | 4.8mΩ @ VGS = 3.8V - Enables ≤75mW conduction loss at 4A, critical for thermally limited wearables and IoT sensors. |
| IS (cont) | 16.5A @ TA = +25°C - Supports high-current load switching in battery management ICs and USB-C PD sink paths. |
| Qg | 35.2nC - Determines gate driver strength requirement; enables <1MHz switching with standard 1A drivers. |
| Coss | 666pF - Limits turn-off energy loss and impacts resonant behavior in synchronous buck topologies. |
| TJ range | −55°C to +150°C - Qualified for extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments per AEC-Q101 stress test conditions. |
Pinout & Package
Package: X3-DSN2718-6 - ultra-thin 2.70mm × 1.81mm CSP with 0.21mm height, 6-terminal configuration, NiAu/NiPdAu plating, MSL Level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S1, S2 | Source (dual parallel) | Reduces current density and parasitic inductance; improves thermal spreading across bottom-side copper. |
| G1, G2 | Gate (dual parallel) | Minimizes gate loop inductance for faster edge rates and reduced ringing during hard switching. |
| D1, D2 | Drain (dual parallel) | Provides low-inductance drain connection to top-side thermal pad; supports high pulsed current (ISM = 80A). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low profile | 0.21mm height enables integration into <0.4mm total board thickness designs (e.g., foldable displays, hearing aids). |
| Low-voltage gate drive | Guaranteed turn-on at VGS ≥ 2.5V supports direct interface with 3.3V/2.5V logic and battery-fuel-gauge outputs. |
| ESD-protected gate | HBM rating >2kV (per JEDEC JESD22-A114) eliminates need for external gate protection in handheld ESD-prone environments. |
| Green RoHS compliance | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900ppm Br+Cl, <1000ppm Sb); meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements for Tier-1 automotive OEMs. |
Applications
| Battery Protection Circuit | USB-C Power Delivery Sink |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Reverse-current blocking and overcurrent cutoff in single-cell Li-ion battery packs for medical wearables. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary load switch placed between battery cathode and system power rail; controlled by battery management IC's enable signal. Use Value: 4.8mΩ RSS(ON) limits voltage drop to <20mV at 4A, preserving battery runtime and enabling accurate coulomb counting. |
Use Scenario: VBUS path switch in portable USB-C accessories requiring 3A–5A sustained current and 20V tolerance. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side power switch activated only after CC logic negotiation confirms sink capability and voltage level. Use Value: Dual-source/drain terminals reduce bond-wire inductance, suppressing VDS overshoot during hot-plug transients up to 20V. |
| Smartphone Backlight Dimming | Automotive Occupant Detection Sensor |
|
Use Scenario: PWM-controlled LED current path in OLED display power architecture with tight thermal budget. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side current sink modulating LED string current at 1–5kHz; driven by PMIC PWM output. Use Value: 0.21mm height allows placement directly beneath flex PCB, minimizing trace length and EMI coupling to sensitive analog sensor lines. |
Use Scenario: Power gating for capacitive occupancy sensing nodes in vehicle seat cushions operating at −40°C to +105°C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Always-on supply switch enabling rapid wake-up from deep sleep while maintaining <1µA quiescent leakage. Use Value: ISSS ≤1µA at VSS = 10V ensures <5µW standby loss per node-critical for multi-node battery-powered cabin monitoring. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN10H3D0L-7 | Lower RSS(ON) (3.0mΩ @ 4.5V) but higher VSSS (20V); larger 2.9×2.3mm footprint. | Better for 19V input rails; unsuitable where board height <0.25mm is mandatory. | Select when higher voltage margin and lower conduction loss outweigh size constraints. |
| AOZ1280CI | Integrated gate driver + current sense; 6.5mΩ RDS(ON); SO-8 package (1.25mm height). | Reduces BOM count in smart load switches but increases PCB area and thermal mass. | Choose when system-level diagnostics (overcurrent flag, thermal shutdown) are required beyond basic switching. |
Compared with DMN15M3UCA6-7, DMN10H3D0L-7 trades compactness for higher voltage headroom and lower RSS(ON), while AOZ1280CI replaces discrete gate drive complexity with integrated control at the cost of height and layout flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for DMN15M3UCA6-7?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±12V. Operation above ±8V risks permanent gate oxide damage; typical gate drive should remain within 0.5V to 4.5V for reliable enhancement-mode switching. Gate leakage IGSS remains below ±10µA up to ±8V, verified per JEDEC JESD22-A114.
Can DMN15M3UCA6-7 be used in automotive applications?
Yes-this part is AEC-Q101 qualified and manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities. It meets PPAP requirements and supports change control protocols for automotive subsystems including body electronics, infotainment power rails, and ADAS sensor modules operating from −40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
How does the dual-source/dual-drain pin configuration improve performance?
The S1/S2 and D1/D2 parallel terminals halve effective bond-wire inductance and distribute current across two paths, reducing localized heating and improving pulse current handling (ISM = 80A). This configuration also lowers package-level RDS(ON) by ~8% versus single-terminal equivalents under identical PCB layout.
What is the thermal resistance when mounted on a 1-inch² copper pad?
When mounted on FR-4 with 1-inch² (6.45cm²), 2oz copper, RθJA is 124.6°C/W. With minimum recommended pad layout (per Diodes' X3-DSN2718-6 land pattern), RθJA improves to 51.5°C/W, enabling 2.4W continuous dissipation at TA = +25°C without heatsinking.
