Product details
Overview
DMS3012SFG-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 30V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET monolithically integrated with a Schottky diode in a single PowerDI3333-8 die, delivering 7.3 mΩ RDS(ON) at VGS = 10V, 12 A continuous drain current, and 0.45 V forward diode voltage (VSD). It serves as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or power switch in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the DMS3012SFG-7 datasheet, DMS3012SFG-7 pinout, DMS3012SFG-7 application, or DMS3012SFG-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low Qrr (4.3 nC), 100% UIS-rated avalanche capability, integrated Schottky's reduced body-diode conduction loss, and thermally optimized PowerDI3333-8 package for high-density power stages.
Technical Context
This device implements Diodes Incorporated's patented DIOFET process to co-integrate an N-channel MOSFET and Schottky diode on one silicon die-eliminating parasitic body diode conduction and enabling fast, low-loss reverse recovery (trr = 13.1 ns, Qrr = 4.3 nC). Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH) = 1.0–2.5 V) supports 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level drive.
The PowerDI3333-8 package provides 11 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance and occupies only 33% of the board area of an SO-8, with a 0.072 g mass and UL 94V-0 molding compound. It is qualified to AEC-Q101 and rated for operation from –55 °C to +150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche breakdown; suitable for 24 V rail and 12 V automotive input systems. |
| RDS(ON) | 7.3 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 12 A, critical for high-efficiency buck converter output stages. |
| ID (continuous) | 12 A @ TA = +25 °C - Sustains full-load current in compact DC-DC modules without forced airflow. |
| VSD | 0.45 V @ IS = 1 A - Reduces forward drop vs. standard body diode (~1.2 V), cutting synchronous rectifier losses by >60%. |
| Qrr | 4.3 nC - Low reverse recovery charge minimizes switching loss and EMI during hard commutation in synchronous buck topologies. |
| RθJA | 58 °C/W (with 1″² copper) - Enables 2.2 W steady-state dissipation at +70 °C ambient, supporting high-power density designs. |
| tr/tf | 27.8 ns / 13.6 ns - Fast switching transitions reduce dead-time losses and improve light-load efficiency in PWM controllers. |

| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain | Common drain connection for MOSFET and anode of integrated Schottky; also serves as thermal pad for heat dissipation. |
| Center Pad (exposed) | Drain (thermal) | Primary thermal path to PCB; must be soldered to large copper pour for RθJA = 58 °C/W performance. |
| Pin 5 (top view label) | Gate | Single gate input controlling all MOSFET cells; low Rg (0.26–2.6 Ω) enables clean 10 MHz+ switching with minimal gate drive loss. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and thermal derating behavior of DMS3012SFG-7?
The device is rated for TJ = –55 °C to +150 °C. With a 1″² copper pad, RθJA = 58 °C/W allows 2.2 W dissipation at +25 °C ambient, dropping to 1.3 W at +70 °C. Derating follows linear 16.7 mW/°C slope above +70 °C ambient per datasheet Note 6.
Does DMS3012SFG-7 require a gate resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes-a gate resistor is required to control dV/dt and suppress ringing. For 500 kHz operation with 10 V drive, a 1.0 Ω resistor balances switching speed (tr/tf ≈ 25 ns) and gate drive loss (<15 mW), per typical gate charge curve (Fig. 14) and Rg = 0.26–2.6 Ω specification.
How does the integrated Schottky diode differ from the MOSFET's intrinsic body diode in operation?
The monolithic Schottky replaces the parasitic body diode entirely: it conducts during freewheeling with VSD = 0.45 V (vs. ~1.2 V), exhibits no minority-carrier storage, and delivers Qrr = 4.3 nC (vs. >50 nC for body diode), eliminating reverse-recovery spikes and associated EMI in synchronous rectifiers.
Is DMS3012SFG-7 suitable for new designs despite the "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN" note?
No-the datasheet explicitly states "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN - NO ALTERNATE PART". This reflects Diodes Incorporated's end-of-life status; Aetrix Electronics stocks remaining inventory for legacy repair and continuity, but advises migration to active alternatives like DMN3016LSD-13 or DMP3018LPS-13 for new projects.
