Product details
Overview
DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified 40V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in PowerDI3333-8 package, delivering 5.5 mΩ RDS(ON) @ VGS = 10 V, 71 A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C, and rated for operation up to +175°C junction temperature-designed for automotive backlighting, DC-DC converters, and power-management functions.
For engineers reviewing the DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 datasheet, DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 pinout, DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 application, or DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its wettable flank package for optical inspection, 100% production-tested UIS robustness, low Qgd × RDS(ON) figure-of-merit, and IATF 16949-certified manufacturing 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 (2.0–3.5 V) enables compatibility with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level drivers, while the 13.2 nC total gate charge supports efficient PWM control in synchronous buck stages.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 61.3 ns reverse recovery time and 52.1 nC QRR, enabling reliable freewheeling in inductive loads. Thermal design is supported by 2.9 °C/W RθJC and a thermally enhanced exposed drain pad compatible with PCB copper thermal planes.

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 | 40 V, 2.2 mΩ @ 10 V, PowerFLAT 5x6; higher RDS(ON) temp coefficient (+0.4%/°C vs. +0.25%/°C) | Better suited for space-constrained modules needing lower RDS(ON); less tolerant of thermal cycling due to higher tempco | Select when board area is critical and thermal margin exceeds 30°C; verify gate drive strength for 22 nC Qg |
| IXTP44N10P | 100 V, 22 mΩ @ 10 V, TO-220AB; non-AEC-Q101, no wettable flanks, RθJC = 1.2 °C/W | Requires heatsink; unsuitable for automated AOI or PPAP-driven automotive programs | Only for industrial/non-automotive prototyping; avoid where AEC compliance, thermal density, or optical inspection are required |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IXTP44N10P, DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 uniquely balances ultra-low RDS(ON), AEC-Q101 validation, wettable flank manufacturability, and +175°C capability-making it optimal for production-grade automotive power stages where reliability, thermal density, and process control are jointly prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±20 V, with typical gate drive operating between 0 V (off) and 10 V (fully enhanced). Exceeding ±20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage; recommended gate drive uses 12 V with series resistor to limit dV/dt-induced overshoot during fast switching.
Does DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 require a gate driver IC in automotive applications?
A gate driver IC is strongly recommended for PWM frequencies above 50 kHz or when driving multiple parallel devices. The 13.2 nC Qg demands ≥100 mA peak drive current to achieve <50 ns rise/fall times; microcontroller GPIO alone cannot reliably control switching speed or suppress Miller-induced turn-on.
How does the wettable flank feature improve manufacturing yield?
Wettable flank leads allow automated optical inspection (AOI) systems to verify solder fillet formation on all four side terminals, detecting voids, insufficient wetting, or bridging without requiring X-ray. This eliminates manual visual inspection and increases first-pass yield in high-volume SMT lines for automotive modules.
Can DMTH45M5SFVWQ-7 be used in high-side configuration with bootstrap gate drive?
Yes-it supports high-side operation using bootstrap gate drive, provided VGS remains within ±20 V and the bootstrap capacitor sustains sufficient voltage during duty cycles >95%. Its 2.0–3.5 V VGS(TH) ensures reliable turn-on even with bootstrap droop to ~8 V, but layout must minimize high-side source inductance to prevent oscillation.
