Product details
Overview
IRLML5203GTRPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in Micro3™ (SOT-23) package, rated for -30 V VDS, 98 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V and ID = -3.0 A, with -1.0 to -2.5 V gate threshold voltage. It serves as a low-side load switch in portable battery-powered systems requiring compact, low-profile power control.
For engineers reviewing the IRLML5203GTRPBF datasheet, IRLML5203GTRPBF pinout, IRLML5203GTRPBF application, or IRLML5203GTRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified -30 V breakdown rating, 98 mΩ on-resistance at -10 V gate drive, thermal resistance of 100 °C/W, body diode forward voltage of -1.2 V at -1.3 A, and compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V logic-level gate control in space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a normally-off P-channel switch with gate-controlled conduction between drain and source. Its low RDS(on) and optimized gate charge (Qg = 9.5 nC typ.) enable efficient switching in DC-DC load management and reverse polarity protection circuits.
The integrated body diode supports bidirectional current handling in battery backup paths and hot-swap applications. Thermal performance is defined by RθJA = 100 °C/W on FR-4 board, with junction temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C and linear derating factor of 10 mW/°C above 70 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -30 V - Maximum drain-to-source blocking voltage for reliable operation in 24 V rail and automotive battery systems |
| RDS(on) | 98 mΩ @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -3.0 A - Enables <100 mW conduction loss at 1 A load current |
| ID (25°C) | -3.0 A - Continuous drain current capability sufficient for USB-C PD load switches and LED drivers |
| VGS(th) | -1.0 to -2.5 V - Ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V logic-level gate drive |
| Qg | 9.5 nC (typ.) - Supports fast turn-on/turn-off with minimal gate driver power demand |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - Defines thermal limit for surface-mount operation on standard FR-4 without heatsink |
| VSD | -1.2 V @ IS = -1.3 A - Confirmed forward voltage of integrated body diode for reverse-current path design |
Pinout & Package
IRLML5203GTRPBF uses the Micro3™ package (JEDEC TO-236AB), a thermally enhanced variant of SOT-23 with large thermal pad and low profile (<1.1 mm). The package enables high power density in ultra-thin applications such as PCMCIA cards and wearables.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control input | Accepts negative gate voltage relative to source to turn on P-channel conduction |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side current path | Connected to positive supply rail in high-side switch configuration or load return in low-side configuration |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node | Biased at system ground or battery positive; defines gate drive reference and body diode anode |
Key Features

| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) max -2.5 V - ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V microcontroller outputs |
| Low-profile Micro3™ package | Height <1.1 mm - fits within 1.6 mm PCB stack-ups for portable electronics |
| Lead-free & halogen-free | RoHS-compliant construction - meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET load switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2053LK-7 | RDS(on) = 110 mΩ @ -4.5 V; higher Qg (12 nC) | Optimized for 4.5 V gate drive; less suitable for 3.3 V logic | Prefer when gate drive is ≥4.5 V and lower cost is prioritized over minimal conduction loss |
| SI2301BDS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 115 mΩ @ -4.5 V; RθJA = 125 °C/W | Higher thermal resistance limits continuous current in confined layouts | Select only if footprint compatibility with existing SI23xx designs is required and power dissipation remains below 0.5 W |
Compared with DMN2053LK-7 and SI2301BDS-T1-GE3, IRLML5203GTRPBF delivers superior RDS(on) at 3.3 V gate drive and lowest thermal resistance in SOT-23, making it optimal for space- and efficiency-critical battery-switching roles where gate voltage headroom is limited.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 70°C ambient?
The IRLML5203GTRPBF supports -2.4 A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with VGS = -10 V. This value reflects thermal derating from the 25°C rating of -3.0 A, based on its 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and 1.25 W power dissipation limit at 25°C.
Can this MOSFET be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - its gate threshold voltage range (-1.0 V to -2.5 V) ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V logic. At VGS = -3.3 V, RDS(on) rises to ~165 mΩ (at -2.6 A), which remains acceptable for low-duty-cycle or low-current applications like sensor power gating.
Does the device include an integrated body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, it features an integral source-drain p-n junction diode. At TJ = 25°C and IS = -1.3 A with VGS = 0 V, the forward voltage is -1.2 V. This diode supports freewheeling in inductive loads and reverse-current paths without external components.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation at 100 µs pulse width?
At 100 µs pulse width and TJ = 25°C, the SOA limits drain current to approximately -4.5 A at -15 V VDS. This boundary is defined by RDS(on) conduction and transient thermal impedance, not peak avalanche energy - the device is not rated for repetitive avalanche operation.
