Product details
Overview
ZXMP6A17KTC from Diodes Incorporated is a 60V P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-252-3L (DPAK) package, rated for -6.6A continuous drain current at VGS = -10V, with RDS(on) = 125 mΩ and fast switching (tD(off) = 26.2 ns). It integrates a low-VSD body diode (-0.85 V at -2 A) and supports high-efficiency DC-DC converter topologies requiring synchronous rectification or high-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the ZXMP6A17KTC datasheet, ZXMP6A17KTC pinout, ZXMP6A17KTC application, or ZXMP6A17KTC equivalent, key selection criteria include verified RDS(on) at -4.5V (190 mΩ), thermal resistance RθJA = 30.0 °C/W on 50 mm × 50 mm 2 oz FR4, safe operating area limits up to -60 V / -20.3 A pulsed, and RoHS-compliant "Green" packaging per J-STD-020D Level 1.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates as a normally-off P-channel switch with gate threshold voltage VGS(th) = -1.0 V (min), enabling reliable turn-on control using standard logic-level gate drivers. Its transconductance gfs = 4.7 S at VDS = -15 V ensures stable gain across load conditions.
The device features low dynamic parameters: Ciss = 637 pF, Coss = 70 pF, and Qg = 17.7 nC at VGS = -10 V, supporting high-frequency operation in buck converters and LED backlighting circuits while minimizing switching losses.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMG6968UVT-7 | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ @ -4.5 V (lower), but VDSS = -20 V (reduced voltage margin) | Better suited for 3.3 V logic-driven low-voltage loads; not viable for 48 V bus interfaces | Select when prioritizing ultra-low RDS(on) at 3.3 V drive and system voltage ≤20 V |
| SI2301BDS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 115 mΩ @ -4.5 V (slightly lower), but ID = -2.7 A (lower current rating) | Optimized for space-constrained portable devices; insufficient for >3 A continuous loads | Choose for compact SOT-23 designs where board area is critical and current demand is ≤2.7 A |
Compared with DMG6968UVT-7 and SI2301BDS-T1-GE3, ZXMP6A17KTC uniquely balances -60 V blocking capability, -6.6 A current handling, and 190 mΩ RDS(on) at -4.5 V-making it optimal for industrial 24–48 V DC-DC and hot-swap applications where voltage margin and thermal robustness are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for ZXMP6A17KTC at 70°C ambient?
The ZXMP6A17KTC supports -5.3 A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with derating based on 33.3 mW/°C linear factor on a 50 mm × 50 mm 2 oz FR4 PCB. This reflects thermal limitation under steady-state conduction, not device failure threshold.
Does ZXMP6A17KTC require gate resistors for EMI control in switching applications?
Yes-gate resistance (typically 4.7–10 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing caused by Lg–Ciss resonance and control dV/dt during turn-on/off. The 17.7 nC total gate charge and 53 pF Crss make external RG essential for clean transitions in >500 kHz designs.
Can ZXMP6A17KTC be used in linear regulator configurations?
No-it is optimized for switching operation only. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve shows limited DC capability below 10 V VDS, and RDS(on) variation with temperature makes it unsuitable for precision linear regulation; dedicated LDOs or bipolar pass transistors are preferred.
Is the body diode in ZXMP6A17KTC suitable for reverse recovery in synchronous rectification?
Yes-the body diode has trr = 25.1 ns and Qrr = 27.2 nC, enabling effective synchronous rectification in buck converters up to ~1 MHz. However, its VSD = -0.85 V at -2 A is higher than Schottky alternatives, so efficiency gains depend on duty cycle and load current.
