Product details
Overview
DMPH4023SK3 from Diodes Incorporated is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET rated for -40V VDSS, 26 mΩ RDS(ON) @ VGS = -10V, and -50A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C, operating up to +175°C junction temperature. It serves as a high-current, high-temperature power switch in DC-DC converters, motor control, backlighting, and printer equipment.
For engineers reviewing the DMPH4023SK3 datasheet, DMPH4023SK3 pinout, DMPH4023SK3 application, or DMPH4023SK3 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TO252 package layout, thermal performance data, AEC-Q101 qualification status, and real-world switching parameters including Qg = 18.7 nC and tF = 23.4 ns.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar trench-gate technology optimized for low RDS(ON) while preserving fast switching speed and robust UIS capability. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH) = -1 to -3 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level gate drivers in high-side configurations.
Thermal design is supported by RθJC = 1.5 °C/W and operation up to +175°C, validated under AEC-Q101 stress testing. The integrated body diode exhibits VSD = -0.75 to -1.2 V at -1 A, enabling synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and H-bridge topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | -40 V - Maximum blocking voltage in off-state; supports 36V nominal bus systems with margin. |
| RDS(ON) | 26 mΩ max @ VGS = -10V - Enables <1.3 W conduction loss at -50A, critical for thermal management. |
| ID (continuous) | -50 A @ TC = +25°C - High-current capability suitable for industrial motor drives and high-power LED drivers. |
| Qg | 18.7 nC - Low total gate charge reduces driver power demand and enables efficient 100–500 kHz switching. |
| tF | 23.4 ns - Fast fall time minimizes switching losses during turn-off transitions in hard-switched topologies. |
| TJ max | +175°C - Rated for under-hood automotive, industrial furnace controls, and high-ambient environments. |
| EAS | 85 mJ - Confirmed unclamped inductive switching energy rating ensures ruggedness in relay/snubberless designs. |

Applications
| Motor Control | DC-DC Converters |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional H-bridge driver for 24–48V brushed DC motors in industrial automation and HVAC actuators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch controlling motor phase voltage with fast turn-off (tF = 23.4 ns) to minimize shoot-through risk. Use Value: RDS(ON) = 26 mΩ limits I²R loss to ≤0.65 W at 50A, reducing heatsink size and enabling compact motor driver PCBs. |
Use Scenario: Synchronous rectifier in non-isolated buck converter for telecom base station power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-loss freewheeling path replacing Schottky diode; body diode VSD = -0.75 V enables high efficiency at light loads. Use Value: Qg = 18.7 nC allows gate drive with low-power controllers; EAS = 85 mJ prevents failure during transient overloads. |
| Backlighting | Printer Equipment |
Use Scenario: High-current LED string switch in commercial signage and LCD panel edge-lit backlights. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Constant-current sink switch modulated at 1–20 kHz PWM frequency; operates at TJ up to +150°C during sustained brightness. Use Value: +175°C rating ensures long-term reliability under sealed, thermally constrained enclosures; low RDS(ON) maintains uniform LED current across temperature. |
Use Scenario: Fuser heater control and paper feed motor driver in laser printers and multifunction devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability power switch handling repetitive surge currents during fuser warm-up cycles. Use Value: 100% UIS-tested ruggedness prevents failure during repeated inductive turn-off events; TO252 package provides stable thermal interface to metal chassis. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMTH4007LPS-13 | RDS(ON) = 7.5 mΩ @ -10V (lower), but rated only to +150°C; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Better for high-efficiency, lower-temperature consumer power supplies where automotive qualification is unnecessary. | Select when lower conduction loss is prioritized over extreme temperature or automotive compliance. |
| IPD95R1K2P7ATMA1 | 950V SiC MOSFET, RDS(ON) = 1.2 Ω; higher voltage, higher RDS(ON), different technology and drive requirements. | Targeted at high-voltage industrial inverters, not 40V power switches; incompatible gate drive and layout. | Not a functional substitute; only relevant if system voltage exceeds 40V and SiC benefits are required. |
Compared with DMTH4007LPS-13, DMPH4023SK3 trades 3.5× higher RDS(ON) for +25°C higher temperature rating and AEC-Q101 validation-critical for automotive and harsh-environment use. IPD95R1K2P7ATMA1 belongs to a different voltage class and technology domain, making it non-interchangeable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The DMPH4023SK3 supports -35 A continuous drain current at TC = +100°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO252 package under realistic board-level cooling conditions with 1-inch² copper area.
Is the DMPH4023SK3 suitable for synchronous rectification in buck converters?
Yes-the device's low RDS(ON) (26 mΩ), fast switching (tF = 23.4 ns), and low Qgd/Qg ratio enable efficient synchronous rectification. Its body diode VSD = -0.75 V at -1 A and reverse recovery charge QRR = 9.2 nC further support clean commutation in 100–500 kHz buck stages.
Does the DMPH4023SK3 have an automotive-qualified variant?
Yes-the DMPH4023SK3Q is the AEC-Q101-qualified version, documented separately in datasheet DS38134Q. It shares identical electrical and thermal specifications but undergoes additional automotive-specific qualification testing and traceability controls.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for optimal thermal performance?
Diodes recommends a minimum 1-inch² copper area connected to the exposed drain pad using multiple thermal vias to inner/ground planes. The suggested TO252 pad layout is published on diodes.com/package-outlines.html and specifies dimensions matching the DPAK outline (E = 6.58 mm, D = 6.10 mm, L = 1.59 mm).
