Product details
Overview
DMN5L06K-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 50V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SOT23 package, rated for 300mA continuous drain current at +25°C, with RDS(ON) = 2.0Ω @ VGS = 5.0V and ultra-low gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH) ≤ 1.0V). It serves as a low-voltage load switch in notebook battery management circuits where fast turn-on at 1.8–2.5V logic levels is critical.
For engineers reviewing the DMN5L06K-7 datasheet, DMN5L06K-7 pinout, DMN5L06K-7 application, or DMN5L06K-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified low-threshold switching capability, leakage performance (<60nA IDSS), ESD robustness (2kV HBM), thermal resistance (357°C/W), and JEDEC-qualified reliability for portable power systems.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process technology optimized for low VGS(TH) and minimized RDS(ON) trade-off at sub-3V drive. Its 1.0V max gate threshold enables direct interfacing with 1.8V/2.5V GPIOs without level-shifting, while maintaining 50V VDSS margin for transient suppression in battery-fed rails.
Designed for DC load switching-not high-frequency PWM-the device features low input capacitance (Ciss = 50pF) and fast turn-on/turn-off times, with guaranteed low leakage (IGSS ≤ 50nA @ VGS = ±5V) and integrated ESD protection on all terminals per JESD22-A114.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 50V - Withstands up to 50V drain-source blocking voltage, suitable for single-cell Li-ion (4.2V) and multi-cell battery rails with headroom. |
| RDS(ON) @ VGS = 5.0V | 2.0Ω - Delivers ≤100mW conduction loss at 300mA, enabling thermally stable operation on FR-4 PCB without heatsinking. |
| VGS(TH) Max | 1.0V - Ensures full enhancement with 1.8V logic outputs, eliminating need for gate boosters in space-constrained portable designs. |
| ID Continuous | 300mA @ TA = +25°C - Supports typical notebook subsystem loads including USB peripherals, display backlight drivers, and sensor power domains. |
| Ciss | 50pF - Limits gate drive current demand and reduces switching transition time in low-duty-cycle enable/disable applications. |
| ESD Rating | 2kV HBM - Integrated protection eliminates need for external TVS diodes on gate line in handheld and clamshell form factors. |
| PD | 350mW - Matches thermal dissipation capability of standard SOT23 footprint on 1-oz copper FR-4, validated per JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - Surface-mount plastic package with matte tin annealed terminals, UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, and 0.008g mass. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Source) | Current return path for load current | Internally connected to substrate; must be tied to system ground or lowest potential node in load-switch configuration. |
| 2 (Gate) | Control terminal for channel modulation | Accepts logic-level signals down to 1.0V; requires no external pull-down due to low IGSS (<50nA). |
| 3 (Drain) | High-side or low-side load connection point | Connected to battery rail (high-side) or load (low-side); handles bidirectional body-diode conduction when reverse-biased. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low gate threshold | VGS(TH) ≤ 1.0V ensures reliable turn-on from 1.8V/2.5V microcontroller GPIOs without level shifters. |
| Low RDS(ON) at low VGS | 2.5Ω @ VGS = 2.5V enables <190mW loss at 200mA-critical for thermally constrained thin-client PCBs. |
| Integrated ESD protection | 2kV HBM rating on all pins eliminates discrete ESD components in battery-input paths and simplifies layout. |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Qualified per AEC-Q200 stress test standards, supporting long-term deployment in automotive-adjacent portable electronics. |
| Green, lead-free construction | Halogen- and antimony-free mold compound (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb) meets RoHS 3 and OEM environmental mandates. |
Applications
| USB Peripheral Power Switching | Notebook Battery Protection Circuit |

Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling power to USB-C accessories during sleep/wake transitions to reduce quiescent current. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side load switch controlled by EC firmware via 2.5V GPIO; operates in static ON/OFF state with <1μs response. Use Value: Achieves <100nA off-state leakage (IDSS ≤ 60nA), extending battery standby time beyond 30 days in modern ultrabooks. |
Use Scenario: Isolating main battery from system rail during overvoltage or thermal fault conditions detected by fuel gauge IC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch placed between battery+ and system PMIC input; driven by dedicated fault comparator output. Use Value: 50V VDSS withstands 12V surge events; low RDS(ON) minimizes voltage drop during normal operation (<600mV @ 300mA). |
| Display Backlight Enable Control | IoT Sensor Subsystem Power Gating |
|
Use Scenario: Sequencing power to LED driver ICs after panel initialization to prevent inrush-induced voltage sag. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side enable switch activated by baseband processor after boot sequence completes; duty cycle <0.1%. Use Value: Fast turn-on (driven by Ciss = 50pF) ensures backlight activation within 5μs, eliminating visible startup delay. |
Use Scenario: Power cycling environmental sensors (e.g., humidity, temperature) during periodic wake-up intervals in battery-powered edge nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-quiescent load switch controlled by MCU's deep-sleep GPIO; remains OFF >99.9% of time. Use Value: Gate leakage <50nA prevents unintended wake-up; ESD-hardened terminals survive repeated handling in unshielded industrial enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel low-threshold load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN5L06KQ-7 | Automotive-qualified variant (AEC-Q101), identical electrical specs, same SOT23 package | Required for automotive infotainment modules or ADAS companion ECUs needing PPAP documentation | Select when ISO/TS 16949 manufacturing traceability and extended temperature validation (-40°C to +125°C) are mandatory. |
| AO3400 | Higher VGS(TH) (0.7–1.4V typ), RDS(ON) = 2.7Ω @ VGS = 2.5V, no JEDEC qualification | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer wearables but lacks ESD hardening and reliability validation | Choose only for non-critical, short-lifecycle products where 2kV ESD immunity and long-term parametric stability are not required. |
Compared with DMN5L06K-7, the DMN5L06KQ-7 adds automotive-grade process controls and documentation without altering electrical behavior, while AO3400 trades ESD robustness and qualification for lower unit cost-making DMN5L06K-7 optimal for portable electronics requiring guaranteed low-VGS turn-on and field-reliability.

FAQ
Is DMN5L06K-7 suitable for high-frequency PWM applications?
No. The DMN5L06K-7 is optimized for DC load switching-not switching regulators or motor drives. Its dynamic parameters (Ciss = 50pF, Coss = 25pF) and lack of specified switching time metrics indicate it is intended for enable/disable duty cycles below 1kHz. For PWM above 10kHz, Diodes recommends the DMP3028LSP or AP2310GN.
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for continuous 300mA drain current?
At 300mA, power dissipation is 180mW (using RDS(ON) = 2.0Ω). With RθJA = 357°C/W, junction temperature rise is ~64°C above ambient. Thus, continuous 300mA operation is safe up to +86°C ambient (150°C max TJ). Derating begins above +70°C ambient per Figure 11.
Can DMN5L06K-7 be used in high-side configuration with 5V gate drive?
Yes-its ±20V VGS rating supports gate drive referenced to drain potential. However, external level-shifting circuitry is required since the gate must be driven 5V above the source (which floats at battery voltage). For native high-side control, consider the DMN6070LSD (integrated charge pump).
Does the "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN" note on page 1 apply to DMN5L06K-7?
No-that note refers exclusively to legacy revisions prior to Rev. 12 (August 2022). The DMN5L06K-7 shipped today corresponds to DS30929 Rev. 12-3 and remains actively manufactured and supported by Diodes Incorporated with full datasheet compliance and long-term availability commitment.
