Product details
Overview
DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified 40V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in PowerDI3333-8 package, delivering 4.3mΩ RDS(ON) at VGS = 10V and 96A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C. Rated for +175°C operation and featuring wettable flanks for optical inspection, it serves as a high-reliability power switch in automotive DC-DC converters and backlighting systems.
For engineers reviewing the DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 datasheet, DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 pinout, DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 application, or DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.3°C/W RθJC, 100% production-tested UIS robustness, low Qgd × RDS(ON) figure-of-merit, and AEC-Q101 qualification with PPAP support.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate silicon process optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in high-temperature automotive environments. Its gate threshold voltage (1–2.5V) enables compatibility with 3.3V and 5V logic-level drive, while the 36.9nC total gate charge at VGS = 10V supports efficient PWM control in synchronous buck stages.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 36ns reverse recovery time and 36nC QRR, validated for continuous freewheeling in hard-switched topologies. Thermal design is enabled by the exposed drain pad and 2.3°C/W junction-to-case resistance, allowing direct thermal coupling to PCB copper or heatsinks.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40V, 2.2mΩ @ 10V, PowerFLAT 5x6; lower RDS(ON) but no wettable flanks | Requires X-ray inspection instead of AOI; not AEC-Q101 certified for all variants | Select when ultra-low conduction loss is prioritized over automated optical inspection capability |
| IPB180N04S4-02 | 40V, 1.8mΩ @ 10V, TO-leadless; higher current rating (180A) but larger footprint and no +175°C rating | Rated only to +150°C; unsuitable for under-hood applications exceeding 150°C ambient | Select for non-automotive industrial DC-DC where thermal margin exceeds 25°C and AOI is not required |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IPB180N04S4-02, the DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, +175°C operation, wettable flanks, and production-tested UIS-making it the only choice for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive power stages requiring full traceability and optical inspectability.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20V. Operation beyond this range risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable 3.3V or 5V logic-level drive, the gate threshold voltage (1–2.5V) ensures strong turn-on with standard microcontroller GPIOs, while the 2.4Ω internal gate resistance helps dampen oscillations during fast edge transitions.
Does DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 require a gate driver IC in automotive applications?
No gate driver IC is required for most automotive applications. With a gate threshold of 1–2.5V and total gate charge of 36.9nC at 10V, it is fully compatible with 3.3V/5V MCU outputs driving moderate switching frequencies (<500kHz). However, for high-frequency (>1MHz) or high-duty-cycle synchronous rectification, a dedicated driver improves efficiency and reduces gate dissipation.
How is the wettable flank feature implemented on DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7?
The PowerDI3333-8 package features side-plated (wettable) leads on Pins 1 (G), 2–4 and 6–8 (S), and 5/7 (D), enabling solder to wick up the vertical sidewalls during reflow. This allows automated optical inspection (AOI) systems to verify solder fillet formation and joint completeness-critical for zero-defect automotive manufacturing without requiring X-ray.
Is DMTH43M8LFVWQ-7 suitable for use in synchronous rectification topologies?
Yes-it is explicitly designed for synchronous rectification in automotive DC-DC converters. Its low RDS(ON) (4.3mΩ), fast switching times (tD(ON) = 7.1ns, tF = 13ns), and low Qgd/Qg ratio minimize shoot-through risk and conduction losses. The body diode's 36ns tRR and 36nC QRR further support clean commutation in high-frequency buck and boost stages.
