SC8673040L

Overview

The SC8673040L is an asymmetric dual N-channel power MOSFET manufactured by Panasonic Industry. It integrates two distinct transistors within a single HSO8-F3-B surface-mount package. FET1 provides a drain-source voltage (VDS) of 30 V, continuous current (ID) of 16 A, and typical on-resistance (RDS(on)) of 10 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V. FET2 offers the same 30 V rating but supports higher continuous current of 25 A with a lower typical RDS(on) of 1.9 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Asymmetric dual configuration combining a high-current low-resistance channel with a standard switching channel in one package
• Low gate charge characteristics enabling efficient drive requirements for both channels
• Surface-mount HSO8-F3-B packaging designed for automated assembly processes

Applications

• DC-DC converter circuits requiring mixed current handling capabilities
• Power management modules utilizing compact dual-transistor topologies
• General-purpose electronic equipment power stages

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distribution channels due to discontinued status. Confirm specific manufacturing lot dates against project timelines as availability is limited. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to soldering. Validate pinout alignment with PCB land patterns during integration planning.

Selection Notes

Evaluate thermal dissipation requirements carefully given the asymmetric current ratings between FET1 and FET2. Compare total gate charge values against available driver capabilities to ensure adequate switching speeds. Assess safe operating area limits under expected load conditions to prevent thermal runaway. Consider the physical dimensions of the HSO8-F3-B package for spatial constraints.

Part Context
