Product details
Overview
DMTH4M70SPGW-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 40V, 460A N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in PowerDI8080-5 package, rated for continuous operation at +175°C junction temperature, with RDS(ON) = 0.54 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V. It delivers ultra-low conduction loss and fast switching (tD(OFF) = 99.8 ns) for high-current DC-DC converters in automotive engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the DMTH4M70SPGW-13 datasheet, DMTH4M70SPGW-13 pinout, DMTH4M70SPGW-13 application, or DMTH4M70SPGW-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.35 °C/W RθJC, 100% production-tested UIS robustness, wettable flank terminals for automated optical inspection, and compatibility with high-temperature under-hood environments.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low RDS(ON) while maintaining controlled gate charge (Qg = 117.1 nC) and minimized reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 116 pF), enabling efficient hard-switching in synchronous buck stages. Its body diode exhibits tRR = 117.5 ns and QRR = 340.8 nC at 25 A/100 A/μs, supporting moderate-frequency freewheeling.
The device is thermally characterized with RθJC = 0.35 °C/W to the exposed drain pad, requiring direct thermal coupling to a heatsink or PCB copper plane. Its SOA is defined up to 1840 A pulsed (10 μs), limited by RDS(ON) and junction temperature cap of +175°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; sets upper limit for input rail in 12 V/24 V automotive DC-DC stages. |
| RDS(ON) | 0.54 mΩ (typ) @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 460 A DC, critical for minimizing thermal stress in high-current power rails. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 460 A - Continuous drain current rating at case temperature 25°C; defines maximum steady-state current with adequate heatsinking. |
| Qg | 117.1 nC - Total gate charge required to fully switch; determines driver strength requirement and switching loss trade-off. |
| RθJC | 0.35 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case (exposed drain); enables precise thermal modeling when mounted on copper thermal pad. |
| tD(OFF) | 99.8 ns - Turn-off delay time at VDD = 20 V, ID = 25 A, RG = 5 Ω; constrains minimum achievable switching frequency in hard-switched topologies. |
| EAS | 924.5 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; confirms ruggedness against inductive load transients without external snubbers. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerDI®8080-5 - surface-mount, 5-terminal package with exposed drain pad (D) for thermal and electrical connection; features wettable flank side walls for automated optical solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; accepts 10 V drive for full enhancement; VGS(TH) = 2–4 V ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drivers. |
| Pins 2,3,4 (S) | Source | Three parallel source terminals reduce package inductance and improve current sharing; referenced to system ground in low-side switch configuration. |
| Pin 5 / Exposed Pad (D) | Drain | Main power output terminal and thermal path; electrically connected to drain region; must be soldered to large copper area for thermal dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| +175°C continuous operation | Enables deployment in engine bay locations without derating, eliminating need for additional thermal margin in under-hood power modules. |
| 100% production UIS tested | Guarantees avalanche ruggedness across every unit-critical for reliability in motor drive and solenoid control where inductive kickback is unavoidable. |
| Wettable flank terminals | Supports AOI-based solder-joint verification on SMT lines, reducing post-reflow inspection cost and improving yield in automotive-grade manufacturing. |
| Low Ciss / Crss ratio | Ciss = 10053 pF, Crss = 116 pF → Miller ratio ~0.011; suppresses dv/dt-induced false turn-on and improves gate drive stability. |
| Lead-free, halogen-free "Green" construction | Complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and automotive environmental standards; eliminates brominated flame retardants (<900 ppm Br) and antimony compounds (<1000 ppm). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, high-temperature N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMTH4M72SPGW-13 | Successor part with identical PowerDI8080-5 package; RDS(ON) improved to 0.52 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V; same +175°C rating and UIS test coverage. | Drop-in replacement with marginal conduction loss reduction; recommended for new designs per Diodes' notice. | Select for new designs requiring latest revision and marginally lower RDS(ON); pin- and footprint-compatible. |
| IXTN460N04T4 | Trench MOSFET in TO-268 package; RDS(ON) = 0.65 mΩ @ 10 V; higher RθJC = 0.45 °C/W; no wettable flanks. | Requires through-hole or larger SMT footprint; lacks AOI-friendly terminals and fails to meet same thermal performance at 460 A. | Consider only if legacy TO-268 layout exists and thermal budget permits 0.1 °C/W higher junction-to-case resistance. |
Compared with DMTH4M70SPGW-13, the DMTH4M72SPGW-13 offers slightly better conduction efficiency and full backward compatibility, while the IXTN460N04T4 trades package flexibility and manufacturability for less optimal thermal metrics and no wettable flank support.

FAQ
Is DMTH4M70SPGW-13 qualified to AEC-Q101?
No-the DMTH4M70SPGW-13 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. However, its automotive-compliant counterpart DMTH4M70SPGWQ is explicitly qualified per AEC-Q101 Rev D and shares identical electrical and thermal specifications. The -13 suffix denotes commercial-grade packaging and testing; use the Q-suffix version for automotive production.
What is the maximum safe operating current at TC = 100°C?
At case temperature TC = 100°C, the DMTH4M70SPGW-13 supports 325 A continuous drain current per datasheet absolute maximum ratings. This derating accounts for thermal resistance and junction temperature limits; actual usable current depends on PCB copper area, airflow, and ambient conditions.
Does this MOSFET require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes-a gate resistor (RG) is required to dampen ringing and control switching speed. The datasheet specifies tD(ON)/tD(OFF) test conditions using RG = 5 Ω. For hard-switched applications, typical values range from 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω depending on driver capability and EMI requirements.
Can DMTH4M70SPGW-13 be used in paralleled configurations?
Yes-its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(ON) (see Figure 6) enables inherent current sharing when paralleled. However, layout symmetry (matched gate and source inductance) and individual gate resistors are mandatory to ensure balanced dynamic current distribution and prevent oscillation.
