Product details
Overview
ZVP3306ASTOB from Zetex Semiconductors (now Diodes Incorporated) is a P-channel enhancement-mode vertical DMOS FET in TO-92 package, rated for -60 V VDS, 14 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and -160 mA continuous drain current; used in low-power DC-DC converter load switches and battery protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ZVP3306ASTOB datasheet, ZVP3306ASTOB pinout, ZVP3306ASTOB application, or ZVP3306ASTOB equivalent, key selection criteria include verified gate threshold voltage (-1.5 to -3.5 V), pulsed drain capability (-1.6 A), thermal stability up to +150 °C junction temperature, and TO-92 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole designs.
Technical Context
This discrete MOSFET operates in enhancement mode with negative gate control, requiring VGS ≤ -1.5 V to initiate conduction. Its vertical DMOS structure delivers low RDS(on) while maintaining robust avalanche ruggedness per design test conditions.
Switching performance is characterized by matched 8 ns turn-on/turn-off delay and rise/fall times under VDD ≈ -18 V, ID = -200 mA, and 50 Ω source impedance - confirming suitability for medium-speed power control below 100 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -60 V: Maximum reverse drain-source blocking voltage before breakdown |
| RDS(on) | 14 Ω @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -200 mA: On-resistance determines conduction loss in linear or saturated switching |
| VGS(th) | -1.5 to -3.5 V @ ID = -1 mA: Gate threshold range defines minimum drive voltage needed for reliable turn-on |
| ID (cont) | -160 mA @ Tamb = 25 °C: Continuous current rating limited by 625 mW package power dissipation |
| Ciss | 50 pF @ VDS = -18 V, VGS = 0 V, f = 1 MHz: Input capacitance affects gate drive energy and switching speed |
| gfs | 60 mS @ VDS = -18 V, ID = -200 mA: Transconductance quantifies gain of gate voltage to drain current |
Pinout & Package
TO-92 package (E-Line compatible), 3-lead through-hole plastic case with standard D-G-S pin assignment (viewed from flat side, leads down: left = Drain, center = Gate, right = Source).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | High-side current return path | Connected to negative rail or load return; withstands -60 V reverse bias |
| Gate (G) | Control electrode | Receives negative voltage relative to source to modulate channel conductivity |
| Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive | Biased at system ground or positive rail; defines VGS reference point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| P-channel enhancement mode | Enables high-side switching without level-shifting circuitry when source is tied to positive supply |
| Vertical DMOS construction | Provides higher cell density and lower RDS(on) than planar P-MOSFETs in same package |
| 150 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports operation in sealed enclosures or elevated ambient environments without derating |
| Matched 8 ns switching times | Ensures predictable timing margins in synchronous rectifier or PWM-controlled loads |
Applications

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Reverse-polarity and over-discharge protection in single-cell Li-ion or alkaline battery packs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-FET switch controlled by protection IC to disconnect load when fault detected. Use Value: 14 Ω RDS(on) limits voltage drop to <100 mV at 7 mA sleep current, preserving battery shelf life. | Use Scenario: Synchronous rectification in buck converter output stage operating at 3.3 V or 5 V input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch replacing Schottky diode to reduce conduction loss. Use Value: 60 mW power dissipation at -160 mA enables self-cooled operation without heatsinking. |

Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver for indicator or status lighting in industrial panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Linear-mode current regulator using gate voltage feedback to set ID. Use Value: -3.5 V VGS(th) upper limit ensures turn-on with 3.3 V MCU outputs via simple resistor divider. | Use Scenario: Driving small solenoids or relays from 5 V microcontroller I/O pins. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Level-translated switch interfacing logic-level signals to higher-voltage loads. Use Value: TO-92 footprint allows direct replacement of obsolete 2N7002-type devices in existing PCB layouts. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZVP2106A | VDS = -60 V, RDS(on) = 10 Ω @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -200 mA | Lower on-resistance but higher gate charge (Qg = 12 nC vs 8 nC) | Preferred where conduction loss dominates; requires stronger gate drive. |
| DMG2305U | VDS = -20 V, RDS(on) = 45 mΩ @ VGS = -4.5 V, SOT-23 package | Higher current rating (-4.2 A), but lower voltage rating and surface-mount only | Selected for space-constrained 3.3 V systems; not suitable for -48 V backup rails. |
Compared with ZVP3306ASTOB, ZVP2106A improves efficiency in low-duty-cycle switching but increases gate drive demand, while DMG2305U enables miniaturization at the cost of voltage headroom and through-hole compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe gate-source voltage for ZVP3306ASTOB?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V. Exceeding this risks permanent gate oxide damage. In practice, gate drive should be limited to -10 V for full enhancement and -5 V for partial turn-on, as VGS(th) spans -1.5 to -3.5 V. A series resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ) is recommended to limit transient current during switching.
Can ZVP3306ASTOB be used in linear (ohmic) mode for current regulation?
Yes - its specified RDS(on) and transconductance (gfs = 60 mS) support stable linear operation. At VDS = -10 V and VGS = -4.5 V, it delivers ~80 mA with <5% variation over temperature. Power dissipation must remain ≤625 mW, limiting usable linear range to ID ≤ 62 mA at VDS = -10 V.
Is ZVP3306ASTOB RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes - as manufactured by Diodes Incorporated post-acquisition, ZVP3306ASTOB meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The TO-92 package uses matte tin-plated leads and lead-free molding compound, with full compliance documentation available under Diodes Inc. part number ZVP3306ASTOBQ.
How does temperature affect RDS(on) and VGS(th) in ZVP3306ASTOB?
Per typical characteristics, RDS(on) increases ~1.8× from -40 °C to +150 °C, while VGS(th) decreases ~0.4 V over the same range. At 125 °C, RDS(on) rises to ~25 Ω, requiring gate overdrive (e.g., VGS = -12 V) to maintain low conduction loss in high-temp applications.
