Product details
Overview
SQ7002K-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an AEC-Q101-qualified N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET with 60 V VDS, 1.30 Ω RDS(on) at 10 V VGS, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature, designed for low-current automotive load switching in space-constrained PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the SQ7002K-T1-GE3 datasheet, SQ7002K-T1-GE3 pinout, SQ7002K-T1-GE3 application, or SQ7002K-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection factors include its SOT-23 package thermal resistance (350 °C/W RthJA), 2000 V ESD protection, and guaranteed RDS(on) performance up to 175 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance in a miniature surface-mount package. Its gate threshold voltage range (1.0–2.5 V) enables reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V and 5 V logic drivers, while the integrated body diode supports bidirectional current handling in low-power DC bias circuits.
The device operates across -55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature and meets halogen-free and RoHS requirements. Its safe operating area is limited by RDS(on) at short pulses and by ID = 0.32 A continuous at 25 °C, making it suitable for intermittent, low-duty-cycle switching rather than sustained high-current loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines upper limit for supply rail compatibility in 12 V/24 V automotive systems. |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 1.30 Ω - On-resistance measured at 0.5 A and 25 °C; determines conduction loss and self-heating under nominal load. |
| ID Continuous | 0.32 A @ 25 °C - Maximum steady-state drain current; derates to 0.24 A at 125 °C ambient due to thermal limits. |
| VGS(th) | 1.0–2.5 V - Gate threshold range; ensures robust turn-on with 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO without level-shifting. |
| TJ Max | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood environments per AEC-Q101 stress testing. |
| RthJA | 350 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on 1" FR-4 PCB; sets practical power dissipation ceiling at ~143 mW for ΔT = 50 °C rise. |
| Ciss | 19–24 pF - Input capacitance at 30 V VDS; impacts gate drive energy and switching speed in low-power PWM applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT-23 (TO-236), surface-mount, 3-terminal plastic package with gull-wing leads. Dimensions: 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm (L × W × H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; accepts logic-level voltage to modulate channel conductivity; requires <1.4 nC total gate charge for full turn-on. |
| 2 (S) | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return path; tied to system ground or low-side reference in most configurations. |
| 3 (D) | Drain | High-side switch output; connects to load supply rail; thermally coupled to PCB copper via exposed drain pad in some variants (not applicable here). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK-7 | RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω @ 4.5 V; slightly lower threshold (0.5–1.2 V); same SOT-23 package. | Better suited for 3.3 V logic drive with tighter VGS(th) distribution; higher gate leakage (±100 nA). | Select when driving from weak-sourcing MCUs or where faster turn-on at low VGS is prioritized over leakage. |
| SI2302DS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.08 Ω @ 4.5 V; higher ID (2.6 A); same SOT-23 but optimized for higher current. | Designed for higher-power loads; not AEC-Q101 qualified; lower max TJ (150 °C). | Choose only for non-automotive, commercial-grade applications requiring lower conduction loss and higher current capacity. |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and SI2302DS-T1-GE3, the SQ7002K-T1-GE3 uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, 175 °C operation, and moderate RDS(on) in SOT-23-making it optimal for thermally demanding yet low-current automotive subsystems where qualification and reliability outweigh raw performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SQ7002K-T1-GE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 supports 0.24 A continuous drain current at TC = 125 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the SOT-23 package and ensures safe operation within its 175 °C maximum junction temperature rating. The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 must be used with appropriate PCB copper area to maintain this current capability.
Is SQ7002K-T1-GE3 suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes, SQ7002K-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 1.0–2.5 V and delivers 1.90 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V VGS, ensuring reliable turn-on with 3.3 V logic. Its 0.9–1.4 nC total gate charge further reduces driver loading. The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 is commonly deployed with 3.3 V MCUs in automotive body control modules without level-shifting circuitry.
Does SQ7002K-T1-GE3 have an integrated body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, SQ7002K-T1-GE3 includes a parasitic body diode with a typical forward voltage of 0.83 V at IF = 0.2 A and VGS = 0 V, as specified in the Source-Drain Diode Characteristics table. This diode enables freewheeling in inductive loads and reverse-polarity protection in low-power bias networks. The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 body diode is not optimized for high-frequency recovery but suffices for DC and low-frequency switching.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for SQ7002K-T1-GE3 on a standard PCB?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) for SQ7002K-T1-GE3 is 350 °C/W when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB with 2 oz. copper on both sides. This value assumes standard SOT-23 mounting per JEDEC standards and directly determines allowable power dissipation: for a 50 °C temperature rise, max PD ≈ 143 mW. The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 thermal performance is consistent across production lots per Vishay's characterization.
How does the AEC-Q101 qualification impact SQ7002K-T1-GE3 usage in automotive designs?
AEC-Q101 qualification confirms SQ7002K-T1-GE3 has passed accelerated stress tests-including temperature cycling, high-temperature gate bias, and ESD-required for automotive semiconductor components. This allows direct use in safety-critical and under-hood applications without additional qualification effort. The SQ7002K-T1-GE3 qualification status is documented in Vishay's reliability report for document number 65547.
