Product details
Overview
DMNH6042SPSQ from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified 60V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in PowerDI5060-8 package, rated for continuous operation at +175°C junction temperature, with RDS(ON) = 50 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V and 65 mΩ @ VGS = 4.5 V, delivering 24 A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C - deployed in automotive engine management and body control electronics.
For engineers reviewing the DMNH6042SPSQ datasheet, DMNH6042SPSQ pinout, DMNH6042SPSQ application, or DMNH6042SPSQ equivalent, this part supports high-temperature automotive power switching where low gate charge (Qg = 8.8 nC @ 10 V), robust unclamped inductive switching (EAS = 65 mJ), and thermally stable RDS(ON) tracking are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate silicon process optimized for automotive-grade thermal robustness and fast switching. Its 100% unclamped inductive switching rating ensures reliable operation under worst-case load dump or inductive flyback conditions common in 12 V/24 V vehicle systems.
The device integrates a low-forward-voltage body diode (VSD = 0.8–1.2 V @ IS = 2.6 A) with tRR = 12.9 ns and QRR = 5.4 nC, enabling efficient synchronous rectification and reduced recovery losses in DC-DC converters.
Key Specifications

| VDSS | 60 V - Withstands automotive load-dump transients up to ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a without avalanche breakdown. |
| RDS(ON) @ 10 V | 50 mΩ - Enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 24 A, supporting compact thermal design in space-constrained ECUs. |
| Qg @ 10 V | 8.8 nC - Reduces gate drive power and enables use with low-current drivers in battery-powered modules. |
| TJ max | +175°C - Certified for under-hood applications including engine bay power stages and transmission control units. |
| EAS | 65 mJ - Guarantees single-pulse ruggedness against inductive energy in solenoid and motor driver circuits. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Seven parallel internal drain connections tied to exposed thermal pad - primary current path and thermal conduction path to PCB. |
| 8 | Gate (G) | Single gate input - low capacitance (Ciss = 584 pF) and low Rg = 3.8 Ω enable fast, low-loss switching. |
| - | Source (S) | Internally connected to pins 1–7 via substrate - source node referenced to PCB ground plane through S-terminal routing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | RDS(ON) = 3.2 mΩ @ 10 V (lower), but only rated to +175°C with derated ID = 12 A at TC = +100°C. | Better conduction efficiency in low-voltage, high-current inverters; less suitable for space-constrained 24 V systems requiring full 24 A at high TC. | Select when peak efficiency outweighs thermal footprint constraints and board-level heatsinking is available. |
| IXTP50N10P | TO-220 package, higher RDS(ON) = 22 mΩ @ 10 V, no AEC-Q101 qualification, RθJC = 1.5°C/W. | Requires external heatsink; not approved for automotive production - limited to industrial or prototyping use. | Choose only for non-automotive evaluation or legacy system upgrades where qualification is not required. |
Compared with STL220N6F7 and IXTP50N10P, DMNH6042SPSQ delivers optimal balance of automotive qualification, thermal performance in compact packaging, and gate-drive compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V MCUs - making it the preferred choice for volume production in engine and body control modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at TC = +100°C?
The DMNH6042SPSQ supports 17 A continuous drain current at case temperature +100°C, verified per datasheet Note 7 and validated under steady-state thermal conditions with proper PCB copper layout. This rating reflects derating due to junction-to-case thermal resistance and is not extrapolated beyond test conditions.
Is the PowerDI5060-8 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - the DMNH6042SPSQ uses matte tin annealed over copper leadframe, fully compliant with EU RoHS Directives 2011/65/EU and 2015/863/EU. It meets Diodes' "Green" definition: bromine <900 ppm, chlorine <900 ppm (Br+Cl <1500 ppm), antimony <1000 ppm.
Does this MOSFET require a gate resistor for safe operation?
A gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing and control dV/dt during switching - typical values range from 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω depending on drive strength and layout parasitics. The device's low Rg = 3.8 Ω and Ciss = 584 pF make it sensitive to PCB trace inductance, so gate resistor selection must be validated per actual board layout.
Can DMNH6042SPSQ replace older-generation 60 V MOSFETs in existing automotive designs?
Yes - its PowerDI5060-8 footprint is compatible with industry-standard 5 mm × 6 mm layouts, and its 4.5 V gate threshold allows direct replacement of many legacy logic-level MOSFETs. However, thermal validation is required due to differences in RθJC and power dissipation profile versus TO-252 or SO-8 devices.
