Product details
Overview
DMTH6004SCT from Diodes Incorporated is a 60V, 100A N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO220AB package, featuring 3.65 mΩ RDS(ON) at VGS = 10 V, rated for continuous operation up to +175°C, and qualified for automotive body control and engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the DMTH6004SCT datasheet, DMTH6004SCT pinout, DMTH6004SCT application, or DMTH6004SCT equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100% production-tested UIS robustness, low Ciss (4556 pF), 95.4 nC total gate charge, and thermal resistance RθJC of 1.1°C/W for high-power DC-DC converter designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in hard-switched topologies. Its gate threshold voltage (2–4 V) enables compatibility with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level drivers, while its 1.1°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance supports direct mounting to heatsinks in high-ambient environments.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode with 1.3 V forward voltage at 100 A and 50.5 ns reverse recovery time, enabling synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck converters and motor drive half-bridges without external diode supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive and industrial power rails |
| RDS(ON) | 3.65 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 100 A, critical for thermally constrained DC-DC stages |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 100 A - Package-limited continuous current rating under infinite heatsink conditions |
| EAS | 200 mJ - Energy-handling capability during unclamped inductive switching, verified per production test |
| Ciss | 4556 pF - Input capacitance defining gate drive strength requirement and switching speed trade-off |
| QG | 95.4 nC - Total gate charge determining driver IC sizing and turn-on energy consumption |
| TJ max | +175°C - Extended junction temperature rating enabling operation in under-hood automotive locations |
Pinout & Package
TO220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), 3-terminal configuration: Drain (Tab), Source (Pin 1), Gate (Pin 2). Mounting requires electrically isolated heatsink interface due to drain-integrated metal tab.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Tab (Drain) | Main high-current drain path and thermal interface | Electrically connected to drain; must be isolated from chassis/heatsink unless system design permits common-drain topology |
| Pin 1 | Source | Low-side return node; connects to ground or low-side switch node in half-bridge configurations |
| Pin 2 | Gate | Control input requiring 10 V drive for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD and ringing due to 0.7 Ω gate resistance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested in production | Guarantees avalanche ruggedness up to 45 A and 200 mJ without derating, eliminating need for external snubbers in inductive load switching |
| +175°C operating junction temperature | Supports placement in high-ambient zones (e.g., engine compartments) without thermal throttling or derating |
| Low Ciss/Coss ratio (4556/1383 pF) | Reduces Miller effect and improves controllability during high-dV/dt transitions in synchronous rectifiers |
| Lead-free, halogen- and antimony-free "Green" construction | Meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and automotive change-control requirements including IATF 16949 manufacturing |
| Matte tin-plated copper leadframe | Ensures MIL-STD-202-compliant solderability and long-term intermetallic stability under thermal cycling |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | RDS(ON) = 2.2 mΩ @ 10 V; TO220FP package; lower RθJC (0.9°C/W); no production UIS test data published | Better conduction efficiency but higher gate charge (120 nC); less validated for automotive inductive switching stress | Select when thermal budget is tighter than gate drive capability; verify avalanche performance via application testing |
| IXFH100N60X3 | 600 V rating; 100 A; RDS(ON) = 6.2 mΩ @ 10 V; TO247 package; higher Ciss (5200 pF) | Designed for higher-voltage PFC and industrial inverters; unsuitable for 12/24 V automotive due to excessive RDS(ON) | Only consider if system requires 600 V blocking; otherwise avoid due to 70% higher conduction loss at 100 A |
Compared with STL220N6F7 and IXFH100N60X3, DMTH6004SCT delivers optimal balance of low RDS(ON), production-validated UIS robustness, and automotive-grade thermal endurance-making it preferred for 60 V, high-reliability automotive and industrial switching where both efficiency and ruggedness are mandatory.

FAQ
Is DMTH6004SCT AEC-Q101 qualified?
Yes, DMTH6004SCT is AEC-Q101 qualified for discrete semiconductors. It undergoes stress testing including HTGB, HTRB, and UIS per AEC-Q101 Rev D, and is manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities. Full qualification documentation is available upon request through Diodes' automotive support team.
What is the maximum recommended PCB pad size for TO220AB thermal dissipation?
The datasheet specifies minimum recommended pad layout on FR-4 for RθJA = 52.8°C/W: 1.5 inch² (968 mm²) copper area with 2 oz. thickness and thermal vias to inner layers. For infinite heatsink operation (RθJC = 1.1°C/W), no PCB copper area is required-the tab must be mounted directly to an externally heatsinked surface with thermal interface material.
Can DMTH6004SCT be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, DMTH6004SCT supports paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(ON) (normalized resistance increases with junction temperature), which promotes current sharing. Designers must match gate drive loop inductance and use individual gate resistors (≥5 Ω) to suppress oscillation; layout symmetry is critical for balanced dynamic current distribution.
Does the body diode support continuous conduction mode (CCM) in synchronous rectification?
Yes-the intrinsic body diode is characterized for 100 A continuous forward current at TC = 25°C and exhibits 1.3 V VSD at 100 A. Its 50.5 ns tRR and 80.8 nC QRR enable reliable operation in CCM synchronous buck converters up to 200 kHz, provided gate timing avoids cross-conduction and thermal limits are observed.
