Product details
Overview
DMN601LTQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 60V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SOT523 package, qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive use. It delivers RDS(ON) = 2 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 356 mA at TA = +25°C, and features ESD-protected gate, low gate threshold (1.0–2.5 V), and fast switching (tF = 21.2 ns). It is used in motor control and power-management circuits in automotive body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the DMN601LTQ-7 datasheet, DMN601LTQ-7 pinout, DMN601LTQ-7 application, or DMN601LTQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low-voltage gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) ≤ 2.5 V), thermal resistance (RθJA = 298 °C/W on FR-4), and SOT523 footprint suitability for space-constrained automotive modules.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates as a low-side switch in 12 V/24 V automotive systems, with gate threshold voltage enabling reliable turn-on from microcontroller GPIOs (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V logic). Its low input capacitance (Ciss = 47 pF) and gate charge (Qg = 1.3 nC @ VGS = 10 V) support efficient high-frequency PWM control up to ~1 MHz in DC-DC and load-switching applications.
The integrated body diode (VSD = 0.8–1.4 V @ IS = 115 mA) and reverse recovery characteristics (tRR = 18.6 ns, QRR = 7.7 nC) are specified for inductive flyback management in brushed DC motor drivers and solenoid interfaces, under junction temperatures from –55°C to +150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60 V - supports 24 V automotive systems with ≥2× safety margin against load-dump transients. |
| RDS(ON) | 2 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - limits conduction loss to <180 mW at 300 mA, suitable for low-power switching. |
| ID (max) | 356 mA @ TA = +25°C - defines continuous current capability on standard FR-4 PCB with 1-inch² copper. |
| Qg | 1.3 nC @ VGS = 10 V - enables fast, low-energy gate driving with standard logic-level drivers. |
| RθJA | 298 °C/W - requires thermal-aware layout (e.g., minimum pad area per datasheet) to sustain >100 mW dissipation. |
| tF | 21.2 ns - ensures clean turn-off in PWM-driven loads without excessive shoot-through risk. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT523 - ultra-small surface-mount plastic package (1.60 × 1.60 × 0.75 mm), rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 (J-STD-020), RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and qualified for automotive reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate (G) | Control electrode | Accepts logic-level gate drive; ESD-protected; threshold 1.0–2.5 V enables direct MCU interface. |
| Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive and current return path | Internally connected to substrate; must be tied to local ground plane for stable switching and thermal conduction. |
| Drain (D) | Power output terminal | Carries switched load current; connects to load (e.g., motor coil or LED string); exposed drain pad aids heat transfer. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive use with PPAP support and IATF 16949 manufacturing - eliminates qualification overhead for Tier 1 suppliers. |
| Low RDS(ON) at 5 V drive | 3 Ω @ VGS = 5 V - enables robust operation with 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry. |
| ESD-protected gate | HBM rating ≥2 kV - reduces need for external gate protection in assembly and field environments. |
| Low Ciss and Qgd | Ciss = 47 pF, Qgd = 0.3 nC - minimizes switching losses and improves noise immunity in high-dV/dt automotive environments. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | LED Interior Lighting Driver |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel low-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN601WKQ-7 | Same die, SOT323 package (larger footprint, RθJA = 242 °C/W), higher ID = 500 mA. | Better thermal performance but incompatible SOT323 footprint; not drop-in for SOT523 layouts. | Select when board layout allows larger package and higher current (>356 mA) is required. |
| NX7002AKX | 60 V, RDS(ON) = 3.5 Ω @ 4.5 V, no AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT323. | Lacks automotive qualification and has higher on-resistance; suitable only for industrial/commercial use. | Consider only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. |
Compared with DMN601WKQ-7 and NX7002AKX, the DMN601LTQ-7 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, SOT523 miniaturization, and gate-drive compatibility down to 5 V - making it the only qualified option for space-constrained automotive modules requiring production-grade reliability.

FAQ
Is DMN601LTQ-7 suitable for 3.3 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes - its gate threshold voltage is specified from 1.0 V to 2.5 V, and RDS(ON) is characterized down to VGS = 5 V (3 Ω). At 3.3 V, it achieves partial enhancement; full conduction requires ≥4.5 V. For guaranteed 3.3 V operation, verify actual RDS(ON) and ID in your thermal environment using Figure 4 and Figure 7 from the datasheet.
What is the maximum pulsed drain current for DMN601LTQ-7?
The pulsed drain current is rated at 1.2 A for 10 µs pulses with 1% duty cycle. This value assumes proper PCB layout (FR-4, 2 oz copper, minimum pad) and junction temperature remains within –55°C to +150°C. Exceeding this requires derating based on pulse width, duty cycle, and ambient conditions per Figure 12 (SOA curve).
Does DMN601LTQ-7 include an integrated body diode?
Yes - it features a monolithic parasitic body diode between source and drain, with forward voltage VSD = 0.8–1.4 V at IS = 115 mA and reverse recovery time tRR = 18.6 ns. This diode is fully characterized and usable for freewheeling in inductive loads like motors and solenoids.
Can DMN601LTQ-7 be used in high-humidity or under-hood automotive environments?
Yes - it is qualified to AEC-Q101, manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities, and packaged in UL 94V-0 mold compound with moisture sensitivity level 1. These attributes ensure robustness against thermal cycling, humidity, and chemical exposure typical in engine bay and chassis-mounted modules.
