Product details
Overview
DMN61D8LVTQ from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101 qualified integrated relay and inductive load driver in TSOT26 package, featuring 60V VDSS, 1.8Ω RDS(ON) @ 5VGS, and 630mA continuous drain current. It replaces discrete MOSFET + freewheeling diode + clamp zener for automotive relay coil switching in door, window, and antenna modules.
For engineers reviewing the DMN61D8LVTQ datasheet, DMN61D8LVTQ pinout, DMN61D8LVTQ application, or DMN61D8LVTQ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal performance under pulsed inductive loads, internal active clamp behavior, and automotive-grade reliability validation per IATF 16949 and PPAP requirements.
Technical Context
The DMN61D8LVTQ integrates a logic-level N-channel MOSFET with built-in active clamp circuitry to suppress inductive kickback during turn-off of relay/solenoid coils ≥80Ω. Its gate threshold voltage (1.3–2.0V) enables direct drive from microcontrollers without level-shifting.
It supports automotive transients including Load Dump (60V), Reverse Battery (−14V), and Dual Voltage Jump Start (28V), with 200mJ single-pulse avalanche energy rating and ESD HBM tolerance of 4kV - all validated under AEC-Q101 stress conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60V - Withstands automotive supply surges up to ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a without breakdown. |
| RDS(ON) | 1.8Ω @ VGS=5V - Limits conduction loss to ≤450mW at 630mA, enabling compact PCB layout. |
| ID Continuous | 630mA @ TA=+25°C - Sufficient for driving standard 12V automotive relay coils (typically 300–500mA). |
| EZ Avalanche Energy | 200mJ - Absorbs inductive energy from 80Ω+ coils during switch-off without external snubber. |
| TJ Range | −55°C to +150°C - Meets under-hood temperature requirements for body electronics modules. |
| ESD HBM | 4,000V - Ensures robustness against handling and assembly electrostatic discharge. |
| Thermal RθJA | 116°C/W (2oz copper) - Enables 1.09W power dissipation on standard automotive PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TSOT26 - 6-pin ultra-thin surface-mount package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 0.6mm), RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, matte tin-plated leadframe.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GATE) | Control input | Accepts 3V/5V logic-level signals; threshold 1.3–2.0V ensures compatibility with MCU GPIOs. |
| 2 (SOURCE) | Power return path | Internally connected to substrate; must be tied to system ground for proper clamp operation. |
| 3 (DRAIN) | Load connection | Switches high-side inductive loads; internal clamp clamps flyback voltage to safe levels. |
| 4 (SOURCE) | Redundant source terminal | Parallel-connected to Pin 2 to reduce trace resistance and improve thermal conduction. |
| 5 (CLAMP) | Active clamp control | Internal node regulating clamp voltage; not user-accessible - eliminates need for external Zener. |
| 6 (SOURCE) | Third source terminal | Provides additional low-inductance ground path; improves current sharing and thermal spreading. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated active clamp | Replaces external Zener diode and reduces BOM count by one component while improving transient suppression consistency. |
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS = 3V, eliminating need for gate drivers in 3.3V MCU systems. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use with PPAP documentation support and IATF 16949 manufacturing traceability. |
| TSOT26 footprint | Enables <50% PCB area reduction versus discrete MOSFET + diode + Zener solutions in space-constrained modules. |
| Reverse battery protection | Withstands −14V for 10 minutes, meeting ISO 16750-2 requirements for automotive power rail fault conditions. |
Applications
| Door Lock Actuation | Window Lift Control |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 12V DC relay coils that engage/unlock door latch mechanisms in response to key fob or body controller commands. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side inductive load switch with integrated flyback suppression; handles 300–500ms coil energization cycles. Use Value: Eliminates discrete clamp components, reducing failure points and enabling IP67-sealed module designs with fewer solder joints. | Use Scenario: Controlling small DC motors or relays for power window lift/down functions in passenger vehicles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Logic-compatible load driver managing bidirectional motor polarity via external H-bridge or relay pair. Use Value: Supports repeated 1–2A peak pulses during window obstruction detection without thermal derating or external heatsinking. |
| Antenna Tuning Relay | Seat Adjustment Module |
Use Scenario: Switching RF antenna matching relays in telematics and infotainment systems requiring low EMI and fast settling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (Ciss = 12.9pF) driver minimizing signal path disturbance during RF band switching. Use Value: Reduces parasitic coupling into adjacent RF traces, maintaining SAR compliance and antenna efficiency across LTE/5G bands. | Use Scenario: Operating solenoids and micro-relays in electric seat position memory and lumbar adjustment subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Robust inductive switch rated for >100,000 cycles under 85°C ambient and vibration stress. Use Value: Delivers AEC-Q101 reliability with no field failures attributed to coil arcing or clamp degradation over vehicle lifetime. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar integrated inductive load driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS27082LDR | Higher RDS(ON) (2.5Ω), lower ID (500mA), no internal clamp - requires external TVS. | Targeted at industrial PLC I/O modules; lacks AEC-Q101 and automotive transient ratings. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and board space constraints. |
| STSPIN32F0B | Integrated 3-phase gate driver + Cortex-M0, higher complexity and cost; includes current sensing and PWM control. | Designed for BLDC motor control, not simple relay/solenoid switching. | Choose only if closed-loop motor commutation and diagnostics are required alongside load switching. |
Compared with TPS27082LDR and STSPIN32F0B, the DMN61D8LVTQ provides the most direct drop-in replacement for discrete relay drivers in automotive body electronics - balancing minimal BOM, AEC-Q101 compliance, and proven inductive energy handling without added MCU overhead or external protection components.

FAQ
What is the maximum inductive load impedance supported by DMN61D8LVTQ?
The DMN61D8LVTQ is characterized and rated for inductive loads of 80Ω or higher, including standard 12V automotive relays (typically 40–120Ω). Its 200mJ avalanche energy rating and internal active clamp ensure reliable turn-off without external protection for these impedances.
Does DMN61D8LVTQ require an external freewheeling diode?
No. The DMN61D8LVTQ integrates an active clamp circuit that safely dissipates inductive energy during turn-off, eliminating the need for an external freewheeling diode or Zener clamp - confirmed in the device's Electrical Characteristics table and Application Description section.
Can DMN61D8LVTQ be used in 24V commercial vehicle applications?
No - its 60V VDSS rating is optimized for 12V automotive systems. While it withstands Load Dump (60V), sustained 24V rail operation exceeds design intent and risks exceeding RDS(ON) thermal limits; Diodes recommends dedicated 24V-rated alternatives like DMN6075LVTQ for such use cases.
Is DMN61D8LVTQ pin-compatible with earlier revisions or similar Diodes parts?
No - the DMN61D8LVTQ uses a proprietary 6-pin TSOT26 configuration with internal CLAMP terminal (Pin 5); it is not pin-compatible with standard SOT-23-6 or previous-generation Diodes load switches. Layout must follow the exact pad dimensions and thermal land pattern specified in DS37822 Rev.6.
