ZXMS6004DN8-13

Overview

The ZXMS6004DN8-13 is a dual N-channel IntelliFET power switch manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It integrates two low-side switches in an SOIC-8 package, designed for robust load protection. Key electrical parameters include a drain-source voltage (Vds) of 60 V and a continuous drain current (Id) of 1.3 A per channel. The device features a typical on-resistance (Rds(on)) of 500 mΩ at room temperature. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and supports an input threshold voltage (Vgs(th)) of 1.5 V. The component is qualified under the AEC-Q101 automotive standard.

Feature Summary

• Integrates dual N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFETs with integrated self-protection circuitry
• Provides comprehensive fault management including overcurrent, overtemperature, and overvoltage protection
• Features automatic restart functionality following fault clearance events
• Complies with AEC-Q101 qualification standards for automotive reliability

Applications

• Automotive lighting control systems
• Low-side switching for resistive or inductive loads in vehicle electronics
• General purpose power distribution units requiring dual channel isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'Q' indicates AEC-Q101 automotive qualification status as documented in official datasheets. Confirm the SOIC-8 package variant matches the required PCB footprint. Ensure the ordering code includes the '-13' tape and reel designation if automated assembly is planned. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number directly with Diodes Incorporated documentation to avoid confusion with non-automotive variants.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual isolated low-side switching is required in space-constrained applications. The SOIC-8 package offers a compact solution compared to discrete dual-MOSFET arrangements. Consider the 500 mΩ on-resistance for thermal management calculations under continuous load conditions. Verify that the 60 V rating provides sufficient headroom for the specific system voltage rails. The integrated protection features reduce external component count compared to basic MOSFET solutions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IntelliFET family from Diodes Incorporated, which combines power MOSFETs with intelligent protection logic. The ZXMS6004 series specifically targets automotive and industrial markets requiring reliable load switching. The DN8 suffix denotes the SOIC-8 surface mount package configuration. The -13 suffix typically refers to the standard tape and reel packaging format used in high-volume manufacturing environments.

Replacement Considerations

ZXMS6004DN8 is the base part number without the specific packaging suffix. ZXMS6004DGTA is a single-channel variant in SOT-223, not a direct pin-compatible replacement. No other dual-channel SOIC-8 IntelliFET substitutes are confirmed in public documentation.
