Product details
Overview
DMN2991UFA-7B from Diodes Incorporated is a 20V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in X2-DFN0806-3 package, optimized for ultra-low gate threshold (1.0V max) and low RDS(ON) (0.99Ω @ 4.5V), enabling efficient switching in space-constrained power management circuits such as load switches and analog signal routing.
For engineers reviewing the DMN2991UFA-7B datasheet, DMN2991UFA-7B pinout, DMN2991UFA-7B application, or DMN2991UFA-7B equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage compatibility with 1.8V logic, thermal resistance (301°C/W), footprint size (0.48mm²), and body diode forward voltage (0.7–1.0V).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate process to achieve sub-1V VGS(th) while maintaining robust 20V VDSS rating and low dynamic capacitances (Ciss = 14.6pF, Crss = 3.2pF). Its design targets single-supply operation in battery-powered systems where gate drive voltage may fall below 2.5V.
The device integrates ESD protection on gate terminals and uses NiPdAu-plated copper leadframe for reliable solderability. Thermal performance is characterized under FR-4 PCB mounting with minimum pad layout, yielding RθJA = 301°C/W and PD = 420mW at TA = +25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 20V - supports input rails up to 16V DC with margin for transients |
| RDS(ON) | 0.99Ω @ VGS = 4.5V - enables ≤520mA continuous drain current with <0.27W conduction loss |
| VGS(th) | 0.4–1.0V - ensures full enhancement with 1.8V logic-level microcontrollers |
| ID (max) | 0.52A @ TA = +25°C - suitable for low-power load switching in portable electronics |
| Ciss | 14.6pF - minimizes gate drive energy and switching losses in high-frequency PWM |
| RθJA | 301°C/W - defines thermal derating curve for PCB-mounted operation without heatsink |
| Package | X2-DFN0806-3 - 0.6×0.8mm outline, 0.4mm max height, 16× smaller than SOT23 |
Pinout & Package
Package: X2-DFN0806-3, 3-terminal DFN with exposed thermal pad (non-electrical), 0.6mm × 0.8mm footprint, 0.4mm maximum profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main current path output terminal | Connected to load side; ties to internal silicon die backside for thermal conduction |
| Source (S) | Reference node for gate control and current return | Common connection point for gate drive reference and load ground return path |
| Gate (G) | Control electrode for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <0.3nC total gate charge for full turn-on at 4.5V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low gate threshold | VGS(th) ≤ 1.0V ensures reliable turn-on with 1.8V I/O domains |
| Miniaturized footprint | 0.48mm² area reduces PCB real estate by 94% vs. SOT23 in compact wearables |
| ESD-protected gate | HBM rating ≥2kV per JEDEC JESD22-A114 - eliminates need for external gate protection |
| Low-profile packaging | 0.4mm max height enables stacking under thin shields or in multi-layer flex assemblies |
| Green RoHS compliance | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb) meets IPC-1752A Tier 1 reporting |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Load Switching | Low-Voltage Analog Signal Routing |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-voltage N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK3-7 | RDS(ON) = 1.2Ω @ 2.5V, VGS(th) = 0.5–1.2V, same X2-DFN0806-3 package | Higher RDS(ON) at low VGS increases conduction loss in 1.8V logic systems | Select when higher VGS(th) tolerance is needed to avoid unintended turn-on during brownout |
| AO3400A | RDS(ON) = 0.042Ω @ 10V but 2.1Ω @ 2.5V; SOT-23 package (2.9×1.3mm) | 16× larger footprint limits use in ultra-compact designs; higher gate charge (6.7nC) | Prefer for higher-current (>500mA) applications where board space permits SOT-23 mounting |
Compared with DMN2991UFA-7B, DMN2004LK3-7 trades slightly higher threshold spread for tighter RDS(ON) distribution at 2.5V, while AO3400A offers lower on-resistance at 10V but requires significantly more gate drive energy and PCB area.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for DMN2991UFA-7B at 70°C ambient?
The maximum continuous drain current is 0.42A at TA = +70°C, derated from 0.52A at +25°C due to thermal limitations imposed by the 301°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance and 420mW power dissipation limit on FR-4 PCB with minimum pad layout.
Does DMN2991UFA-7B require external gate resistors for ESD protection?
No - the device integrates on-chip gate protection diodes rated for ≥2kV HBM per JEDEC JESD22-A114, eliminating the need for external series gate resistors in standard PCB layouts with proper grounding and trace routing.
Can DMN2991UFA-7B be used in bidirectional analog switching applications?
Yes - its symmetrical structure and low 0.99Ω RDS(ON) at 4.5V allow use as a bidirectional analog switch; however, signal swing must remain within 0–1.8V to maintain linear operation and avoid body diode conduction.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for optimal thermal performance?
Diodes specifies a minimum recommended pad layout for X2-DFN0806-3 in their package outline document (PN: X2-DFN0806-3); it includes 0.35mm × 0.20mm solder mask openings and thermal relief traces to achieve the rated 301°C/W RθJA on 1oz FR-4.
