Product details
Overview
ZXMN15A27KTC from Diodes Incorporated is a 150V N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO252-3L package, rated for 2.6A continuous drain current at 25°C and 650mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10V, with 55mJ single-pulsed avalanche energy and AEC-Q101 qualification-used in SLIC line drivers for VoIP systems and transformer-driving switch circuits.
For engineers reviewing the ZXMN15A27KTC datasheet, ZXMN15A27KTC pinout, ZXMN15A27KTC application, or ZXMN15A27KTC equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150V VDSS, low 650mΩ on-resistance at 10V gate drive, 100% production-tested UIS capability, TO252 thermal performance, and RoHS-compliant "Green" packaging.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates as a unidirectional power switch with integrated body diode, optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and inductive load switching. Its 2.7V typical gate threshold voltage enables reliable turn-on with standard 3.3V/5V logic-level gate drivers, while low Ciss (169pF) and fast switching times (tr = 12.7ns, tf = 13.3ns) reduce switching losses in high-frequency applications.
The device features robust avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 55mJ, IAS = 4.3A), validated per JESD22-A115, and thermal design support via RθJA = 30.2°C/W on 50mm × 50mm 2oz FR4 PCB. Its TO252-3L package provides low RθJL = 2.06°C/W to the drain lead, enabling efficient heat transfer in surface-mount power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 150V - supports input rails up to 120V DC with margin for transient spikes in industrial power supplies |
| RDS(on) | 650mΩ @ VGS = 10V - limits conduction loss to ≤1.1W at 2.6A, enabling compact thermal design |
| ID (continuous) | 2.6A @ TA = 25°C - delivers stable output current in motor control and UPS hold-up circuits |
| EAS | 55mJ - withstands repetitive inductive kickback in transformer driving and relay snubbing |
| Ciss | 169pF - reduces gate drive power requirement and improves switching efficiency above 100kHz |
| tr/tf | 12.7ns / 13.3ns - enables <500kHz PWM operation with minimal dead-time overhead |
| Qg | 6.6nC - compatible with low-current gate drivers (e.g., TC4420, UCC27531) without external buffering |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO252-3L (DPAK), surface-mount, single-sided copper pad layout optimized for thermal dissipation; case material is UL 94V-0 green molding compound; moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main current path from source to load | Exposed tab connected internally to drain; must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal management and EMI shielding |
| Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive and current return | Low-inductance connection point for sense resistor placement and gate driver ground reference |
| Gate (G) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <6.6nC charge; sensitive to ESD-requires series resistor and TVS protection in layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested in production | Guarantees avalanche survival under worst-case inductive turn-off without derating or external clamping |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and uHAST-suitable for under-hood power modules |
| Low Coss (64.5pF) | Minimizes capacitive switching loss and improves zero-voltage switching (ZVS) feasibility in resonant topologies |
| VSD = 0.95V max | Reduces reverse conduction loss in synchronous rectification and bidirectional power flow applications |
| RoHS-compliant "Green" construction | No halogens or antimony; meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC-1752A reporting requirements for supply chain compliance |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP15NF15 | 150V VDSS, 150mΩ RDS(on), TO220 package, no AEC-Q101 | Higher RDS(on) not suitable for high-current SLIC drivers; TO220 requires through-hole assembly and heatsink mounting | Select only if board space allows larger footprint and thermal mass is available; not recommended for surface-mount automotive designs |
| DMN15H160SFD-13 | 150V VDSS, 160mΩ RDS(on), TSOP-6 package, AEC-Q101 qualified | Lower current rating (1.6A) and smaller package limit use to signal-level switching-not viable for 2.6A transformer drive | Acceptable only in low-power auxiliary rails; insufficient for main power stage due to ID derating and thermal constraints |
Compared with STP15NF15 and DMN15H160SFD-13, ZXMN15A27KTC uniquely balances 2.6A current handling, TO252 thermal performance, AEC-Q101 reliability, and 55mJ avalanche rating-making it the only fit for high-stress VoIP SLIC and industrial transformer drive where both ruggedness and surface-mount scalability matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C ambient?
At TA = 100°C, the ZXMN15A27KTC's continuous drain current is derated to approximately 1.1A based on its 30.2°C/W RθJA and 150°C maximum junction temperature. This value assumes mounting on a 50mm × 50mm 2oz FR4 PCB in still air; actual current depends on board layout and airflow.
Is ZXMN15A27KTC suitable for logic-level gate drive?
No-it is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its typical VGS(th) is 2.7V, but RDS(on) is specified at VGS = 10V (650mΩ). At 3.3V or 5V gate drive, RDS(on) rises significantly (>2.5Ω), causing excessive conduction loss; a gate driver or level shifter is required for full enhancement.
Does the body diode support continuous reverse conduction?
Yes-the integrated body diode is rated for 5.2A continuous source current (IS) and 17.2A pulsed (ISM). Its forward voltage is 0.95V max at 4.3A, making it suitable for freewheeling in buck converters and half-bridge configurations when properly heatsinked.
What is the significance of the "TC" suffix in ZXMN15A27KTC?
The "TC" denotes tape-and-reel packaging: 2,500 units per reel on 16mm-wide carrier tape, compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place equipment. It does not indicate temperature coefficient or variant functionality-the electrical specs match the base ZXMN15A27K part.
