Product details
Overview
DMNH4006SK3Q-13 from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified 40V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO252 (DPAK) package, rated for 140A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C, 6mΩ RDS(ON) @ VGS = 10V, and operation up to +175°C junction temperature-designed for high-reliability automotive power switching in engine control units and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the DMNH4006SK3Q-13 datasheet, DMNH4006SK3Q-13 pinout, DMNH4006SK3Q-13 application, or DMNH4006SK3Q-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100% unclamped inductive switching rating, low 51nC total gate charge at VGS = 10V, 0.8°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and PPAP-capable manufacturing in IATF 16949-certified facilities.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate silicon process optimized for low conduction and switching losses in high-current automotive power stages. Its 6mΩ RDS(ON) enables efficient 140A operation at TC = +25°C, while the 175°C maximum junction temperature supports under-hood deployment without derating in thermally constrained environments.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 32ns reverse recovery time and 28nC QRR, supporting synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck/boost topologies. Its 2280pF input capacitance and 282pF reverse transfer capacitance are characterized at VDS = 25V, enabling precise gate drive design for fast turn-on (7.7ns delay) and controlled turn-off (18ns delay).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche; sets system-level bus voltage limit in 12V/24V automotive architectures. |
| RDS(ON) | 6mΩ @ VGS = 10V - Enables <1W conduction loss at 140A; critical for thermal management in compact power modules. |
| ID (continuous, TC=25°C) | 140A - Supports high-current motor drivers and starter solenoid interfaces without external heatsinking beyond PCB copper. |
| Qg (VGS=10V) | 51nC - Determines gate driver current requirement (~5.1A peak for 10ns rise time); impacts switching efficiency in 100–500kHz DC-DC converters. |
| RθJC | 0.8°C/W - Allows direct thermal coupling to heatsink via exposed drain pad; enables accurate junction temperature prediction in safety-critical systems. |
| tRR | 32ns - Limits reverse recovery energy loss during hard-switched transitions; reduces EMI and stress on complementary switches. |
| TJ max | +175°C - Permits operation in engine bay locations where ambient exceeds +125°C; eliminates need for active cooling in many applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO252 (DPAK), surface-mount, with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. Molded green compound, UL 94V-0 rated, matte tin annealed finish over copper leadframe.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal of N-channel MOSFET | Low-side reference node; connects to ground plane or current-sense resistor for overcurrent protection. |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input for channel conduction | Receives PWM signal from controller; requires <51nC charge to fully enhance; sensitive to ESD (±20V rating). |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | High-side power output terminal | Connected to load or bus rail; electrically and thermally tied to large copper area on PCB for heat dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4L5F7 | 40V, 220A, 3.5mΩ @ 10V, TO263-7 package; higher current but larger footprint and no AEC-Q101 documentation shown publicly. | Requires larger PCB area and different thermal interface; suitable only where space permits and AEC-Q101 compliance is verified per lot. | Select only if 220A rating is mandatory and board layout accommodates TO263-7; verify PPAP status directly with STMicroelectronics. |
| IXTP150N045T | 45V, 150A, 4.5mΩ @ 10V, TO220 package; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and automotive-specific reliability testing. | Not approved for safety-critical automotive functions; limited to industrial or aftermarket designs without OEM validation requirements. | Use only in non-automotive contexts; avoid where PPAP, IATF 16949 sourcing, or 175°C operation are required. |
Compared with STL220N4L5F7 and IXTP150N045T, the DMNH4006SK3Q-13 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, TO252 thermal efficiency, and documented PPAP readiness-making it the only choice for volume automotive production where footprint, qualification, and thermal performance must all be simultaneously met.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for DMNH4006SK3Q-13?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20V, as specified in the Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this value risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable operation, gate drive circuits should clamp VGS between –10V (for fast turn-off) and +12V (to ensure full enhancement without overstress), with transient spikes suppressed using Zener clamps or dedicated gate drivers with built-in protection.
Does DMNH4006SK3Q-13 require a heatsink when operating at 140A continuous current?
No external heatsink is required if mounted on a PCB with ≥1 inch² of 2oz copper connected to the exposed drain pad, as validated in the datasheet's thermal test condition (Note 6). The 0.8°C/W RθJC enables direct thermal transfer to the board; however, airflow or ambient >85°C may necessitate additional copper area or localized forced convection to maintain TJ ≤ 175°C.
How does the body diode performance impact synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters?
The body diode exhibits 32ns reverse recovery time and 28nC QRR at 50A/100A/μs, enabling efficient synchronous rectification up to ~300kHz. Its low VSD (0.7V typ at 1A) reduces forward conduction loss, while fast recovery minimizes shoot-through risk and associated EMI-critical for maintaining high efficiency (>95%) in 48V–12V automotive buck converters.
Is DMNH4006SK3Q-13 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes-it features matte tin annealed over copper leadframe and is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (unlimited floor life at <30°C/60% RH). Peak reflow temperature of 260°C is supported, and the green molding compound meets UL 94V-0 flammability requirements for automotive PCB assembly.
