ZXMS6008N8Q-13

Overview

The ZXMS6008N8Q-13 is a single N-channel IntelliFET low-side power switch manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a 60V drain-source voltage rating and supports a continuous drain current of 1.1A. The device utilizes an SOIC-8 surface-mount package with a maximum power dissipation of 1.28W. Key electrical parameters include a typical on-resistance of 500 milliohms and a gate-source threshold voltage of 1.5V. It operates within a temperature range from -40°C to +150°C and meets AEC-Q101 automotive qualification standards.

Feature Summary

• Integrates self-protection mechanisms including short-circuit protection with auto-restart functionality.
• Features logic-level input compatibility for direct interfacing with 3.3V and 5V control signals.
• Provides low input current requirements suitable for efficient driver interface.

Applications

• Automotive lighting systems
• Low-side load switching in vehicle electronics
• General purpose high-side or low-side power distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'N8Q' against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm pinout, thermal characteristics, and packaging details. Ensure that the AEC-Q101 qualification status aligns with your specific application requirements. Cross-reference the SOIC-8 footprint dimensions with your PCB design guidelines. Confirm that the 1.1A current rating and 500 milliohm resistance meet your circuit's thermal and efficiency constraints before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a ruggedized low-side switch with integrated fault protection is required. The 60V rating suits standard automotive and industrial applications. Consider the SOIC-8 package for moderate power dissipation needs up to 1.28W. The logic-level input simplifies drive circuitry compared to standard MOSFETs. Evaluate the trade-off between the 1.1A current limit and the auto-restart feature for overload scenarios.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ZXMS600x series of IntelliFET devices from Diodes Incorporated. These components are designed as intelligent power switches combining MOSFET technology with embedded protection circuits. The series targets automotive and industrial markets requiring reliable load management. The N8Q suffix typically denotes specific packaging and tape-and-reel configurations within this product family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 60V N-channel IntelliFETs from Diodes Incorporated such as the ZXMS6004N8Q-13 or ZXMS6005DGQ-13, provided pinouts and current ratings are compatible. Verify that alternative parts offer similar short-circuit protection and logic-level input characteristics.
