Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(ON) = 2.2mΩ @ 10V but higher Qg (105nC); TO263 package with larger footprint | Better conduction loss but slower switching; requires larger gate driver and heatsink area | Select when conduction loss dominates and layout space permits larger package |
| IXTP100N04T4 | RDS(ON) = 3.8mΩ @ 10V; TO220 package; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification and UIS screening; lower thermal performance (RθJC = 1.2°C/W) | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial DC/DC where reliability requirements are less stringent |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IXTP100N04T4, DMTH4004SK3-13 delivers optimal balance of low RDS(ON), moderate Qg, AEC-Q101 compliance, and TO252 thermal efficiency - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive and server power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for DMTH4004SK3-13 at 100°C case temperature?
The datasheet specifies 100A continuous drain current at TC = +100°C (Note 9), confirmed by package-limited rating and thermal derating curves. This value assumes proper PCB copper area (25mm × 25mm 2oz) and still-air conditions. At higher ambient temperatures or reduced copper, current must be reduced per RθJC = 0.8°C/W and TJ(max) = 175°C limits.
Is DMTH4004SK3-13 suitable for synchronous rectification in a 48V-to-12V isolated DC/DC converter?
Yes - its 3.2mΩ RDS(ON) at 10V gate drive, 52.4ns body diode tRR, and 78.2nC QRR support efficient synchronous rectification up to 300kHz. The low Qgd/Qg ratio minimizes shoot-through risk, and the 175°C rating accommodates elevated temperatures in high-density power bricks.
Does DMTH4004SK3-13 require a gate resistor for stability in hard-switching applications?
Yes - a 3.5Ω gate resistor is used in the datasheet's dynamic characterization (tD(ON), tR). For hard-switching above 100kHz, a 2–5Ω series resistor is recommended to dampen gate oscillation and reduce EMI, especially given its 0.77Ω intrinsic gate resistance and high dV/dt capability (Ciss = 4305pF).
How does the TO252 package of DMTH4004SK3-13 compare thermally to TO263 in high-power applications?
The TO252 exposes the drain pad directly to PCB copper, achieving RθJC = 0.8°C/W - comparable to many TO263 devices. However, TO252 has lower absolute power dissipation (180W max at TC = 25°C) than TO263 due to smaller copper area. For >150W continuous, TO263 offers superior thermal headroom, but TO252 provides better cost and footprint efficiency below that threshold.
