Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DMTH6016LK3Q-13 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss) must equal or exceed 60V
• On-resistance (Rds On) must not exceed 17mOhm at the specified gate-source voltage
• Gate Charge (Qg) characteristics must support equivalent switching performance
• Operating temperature range must encompass -55°C to 175°C (TJ)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Package type must be TO-252 (DPAK) with identical pinout
• Mounting type must be Surface Mount
• Physical footprint must be compatible with TO-252-3 specification

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance mandatory
• Automotive grade preferred for direct substitution
• AEC-Q101 qualification preferred for automotive applications

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: Parametric Equivalents (identical electrical and mechanical specifications) and Manufacturer Recommended Alternatives (enhanced performance characteristics within compatible parameters).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DMTH6016LK3-13 (Diodes Incorporated)

This part is a parametric equivalent to the DMTH6016LK3Q-13, offering identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. Both devices share the same base product number (DMTH6016) and carry AEC-Q101 automotive qualification with RoHS3 compliance. The DMTH6016LK3-13 maintains the same 17mOhm on-resistance, 17nC gate charge, and -55°C to 175°C operating temperature range. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for direct replacement in automotive applications where inventory availability or supply chain considerations necessitate an alternative source from the same manufacturer.

STD35NF06LT4 (STMicroelectronics)

This device provides enhanced continuous drain current (35A at Tc) compared to the DMTH6016LK3Q-13 (10.8A at Ta, 46.9A at Tc), with identical on-resistance specification (17mOhm) and matching 60V Vdss rating. The STD35NF06LT4 operates across the same temperature range (-55°C to 175°C) and uses the identical TO-252 (DPAK) package. However, this part carries industrial grade classification rather than automotive grade, and does not specify AEC-Q101 qualification. Gate charge is elevated to 33nC at 4.5V. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for non-automotive applications or where higher current capacity provides design margin.

TSM170N06CP ROG (Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation)

This device delivers enhanced continuous drain current (38A at Tc) with matching on-resistance (17mOhm) and 60V Vdss rating in the same TO-252 (DPAK) package. Gate charge is 28.5nC at 10V, positioned between the DMTH6016LK3Q-13 and STD35NF06LT4. The operating temperature range is -55°C to 150°C (TJ), which is 25°C lower than the main part. This part carries industrial grade classification without AEC-Q101 qualification and has MSL rating of 3 (168 Hours) rather than MSL 1. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for non-automotive applications where higher current capacity is beneficial and the reduced upper temperature limit does not constrain the design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DMTH6016LK3-13 be used as a direct replacement for DMTH6016LK3Q-13?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Diodes Incorporated with identical electrical specifications (60V Vdss, 17mOhm Rds On, 17nC gate charge), matching operating temperature range (-55°C to 175°C), and equivalent automotive qualification (AEC-Q101). The parts share the same base product number and TO-252 (DPAK) package. Direct substitution is supported for all applications.

Q: What are the key differences between the DMTH6016LK3Q-13 and STD35NF06LT4?

A: Both devices share 60V Vdss, 17mOhm on-resistance, and TO-252 (DPAK) packaging. The STD35NF06LT4 provides higher continuous drain current (35A at Tc versus 10.8A at Ta for the DMTH6016LK3Q-13). The STD35NF06LT4 has elevated gate charge (33nC at 4.5V versus 17nC at 10V) and carries industrial grade classification without AEC-Q101 automotive qualification. The DMTH6016LK3Q-13 is specified for automotive applications.

Q: Is the TSM170N06CP ROG suitable for automotive applications?

A: The TSM170N06CP ROG is not qualified to AEC-Q101 automotive standards and carries industrial grade classification. The operating temperature range is limited to -55°C to 150°C (TJ), which is 25°C lower than the DMTH6016LK3Q-13. This part is suitable for industrial applications but not recommended for automotive use without design review and qualification.

Q: Are all substitute parts compatible with the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use the TO-252 (DPAK) package with identical pinout (2 Leads + Tab, SC-63 designation). Physical footprint compatibility is confirmed across all listed alternatives.

Q: What is the significance of MSL rating differences?

A: The DMTH6016LK3Q-13 and DMTH6016LK3-13 carry MSL 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level), allowing indefinite shelf storage without moisture bake-out. The TSM170N06CP ROG carries MSL 3 (168 Hours), requiring moisture bake-out if storage exceeds 168 hours in standard humidity conditions. The STD35NF06LT4 carries MSL 1. MSL rating affects component handling and storage procedures during manufacturing.

Q: Can gate charge differences affect circuit performance?

A: Gate charge differences influence switching speed and driver circuit requirements. The DMTH6016LK3Q-13 and DMTH6016LK3-13 require 17nC at 10V. The STD35NF06LT4 requires 33nC at 4.5V, and the TSM170N06CP ROG requires 28.5nC at 10V. Higher gate charge increases switching losses and may require driver circuit adjustment. Verify driver capability before substitution.

Q: What is the impact of continuous drain current ratings on thermal design?

A: The DMTH6016LK3Q-13 is rated for 10.8A at Ta (ambient temperature) and 46.9A at Tc (case temperature). The STD35NF06LT4 and TSM170N06CP ROG provide higher current ratings (35A and 38A respectively at Tc), allowing operation at higher current levels with equivalent on-resistance. Thermal design must account for power dissipation (I²R losses) and available cooling. Higher current capacity does not reduce thermal requirements if operating current remains unchanged.
