Product details
Overview
DMS3016SSSA from Diodes Incorporated is an N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET monolithically integrated with a Schottky diode in a single SO-8 die, delivering 30V VDSS, 13mΩ RDS(ON) @ 10VGS, and 8.9A ID at 25°C - optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and LED backlighting power stages.
For engineers reviewing the DMS3016SSSA datasheet, DMS3016SSSA pinout, DMS3016SSSA application, or DMS3016SSSA equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low VSD (0.35V typ), low Qrr Schottky integration, avalanche ruggedness (13A IAR, 25.4mJ EAR), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This DIOFET device combines a trench-gate MOSFET and Schottky diode on one silicon die to eliminate body diode conduction losses and reduce reverse recovery charge. Its gate threshold voltage (1.0–2.3V) enables compatibility with 3.3V and 5V logic-level drive.
The SO-8 package supports thermal resistance of 81°C/W (RθJA) and handles pulsed drain currents up to 90A. Dynamic parameters-including 18.5nC Qg @ 4.5VGS, 43nC @ 10VGS, and 123pF Crss-are tuned for high-frequency switching in synchronous buck topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12V/24V input rail applications |
| RDS(ON) | 13mΩ @ 10VGS - Enables <1.3W conduction loss at 10A continuous current |
| ID (25°C) | 8.9A - Sustains full-load current in compact 12V-to-5V/3.3V point-of-load converters |
| VSD | 0.35V typ - Reduces forward drop vs. standard body diode (≈0.8–1.2V), cutting freewheeling losses |
| Qrr | Low - Integrated Schottky eliminates reverse recovery charge, preventing shoot-through in synchronous rectification |
| EAR | 25.4mJ - Supports unclamped inductive switching in automotive load-dump conditions |
| TJ Range | −55°C to +150°C - Validated operation across automotive under-hood and industrial ambient extremes |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-8, surface-mount, lead-free, RoHS-compliant molded plastic case with UL 94V-0 flammability rating and moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Source (S) | Common source connection for internal MOSFET and Schottky cathode; low-inductance parallel routing recommended |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Shared drain node for MOSFET channel and Schottky anode; handles high-current power path and heat dissipation |
| Gate (G) | Control terminal | Single gate pad (pin 1 side, per internal schematic); requires <12VGS max and proper gate drive impedance to avoid oscillation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic DIOFET integration | Single-die co-location of MOSFET and Schottky eliminates parasitic inductance and layout mismatch between discrete devices |
| Ultra-low VSD | 0.35V typical forward voltage reduces conduction loss by >50% versus conventional body diode in discontinuous conduction mode |
| Avalanche-rated (IAR/EAR) | 13A repetitive avalanche current and 25.4mJ energy rating enable robust operation during inductive turn-off transients |
| Low Qg/Qgs ratio | 4.7nC Qgs / 43nC Qg = ~0.11 - minimizes risk of cross-conduction in high-frequency synchronous rectifiers |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive power management systems including infotainment and ADAS domain controllers |
Applications
| Automotive LED Headlight Driver | Synchronous Buck Converter |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-side switch in constant-current LED driver for adaptive front lighting systems (AFS).

FAQ
Is DMS3016SSSA pin-compatible with standard SO-8 N-channel MOSFETs?
No - DMS3016SSSA uses a nonstandard SO-8 pinout: pins 1–4 are internally tied to Source, and pins 5–8 are internally tied to Drain. Gate is located at pin 1 side. This differs from conventional SO-8 MOSFETs (e.g., pins 1=G, 2–3=S, 4–8=D). Layout must follow Diodes' recommended pad pattern and internal schematic.
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for continuous operation?
The device is rated for junction temperatures from −55°C to +150°C. For continuous operation at 8.9A, thermal design must limit TJ ≤ 150°C. With RθJA = 81°C/W and PD = 1.54W, ambient must be ≤ 70°C on minimum recommended PCB layout; forced airflow or copper pour improves margin.
Does DMS3016SSSA support 3.3V logic-level gate drive?
Yes - its gate threshold voltage (VGS(TH)) ranges from 1.0V to 2.3V, and RDS(ON) is specified down to 16mΩ at VGS = 4.5V. At 3.3VGS, it delivers usable conduction (RDS(ON) ≈ 22–25mΩ), but full 13mΩ performance requires ≥10VGS. Gate driver selection must ensure sufficient peak current for fast tr/tf.
Why is DMS3016SSSA marked "NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN"?
Diodes Incorporated has issued this notice due to planned obsolescence - no direct replacement part is currently offered. The device remains fully supported for existing production and legacy designs, but new projects should evaluate alternatives like DMN3016LSD-13 or DMP3016LSS-13, which offer similar specs and updated qualification status.
