The IRLML6401TRPBF is the tape-and-reel, Pb-free, halogen-free version. It is one of the most popular P-channel MOSFETs for low-voltage load switching applications, with extensive multi-source availability.\n\nThe -12 V drain-source rating and -4.3 A continuous current capability make it ideal for Li-ion battery-powered applications where a high-side P-channel switch is needed. The 50 m\u03a9 maximum RDS(on) at VGS = -4.5 V results in only 215 mW of conduction loss at 4.3 A, well within the 1.3 W package rating with modest PCB copper area.\n\nThe low threshold voltage (VGS(th) = -0.55 V typical, -1.0 V maximum) allows the IRLML6401 to be driven directly from 1.8 V logic. At VGS = -2.5 V, RDS(on) increases to approximately 80-90 m\u03a9 but remains usable for moderate current loads, making 1.8 V\/2.5 V GPIO-driven load switches practical.\n\nThe 10 nC total gate charge enables switching frequencies up to several hundred kHz with minimal gate-drive loss, suitable for DC-DC converter applications where a P-channel high-side switch is preferred over a bootstrap-driven N-channel.\n\nThe SOT-23 package provides R\u03b8JA of approximately 75-100\u00b0C\/W depending on PCB layout. With the large drain tab soldered to a copper pour with thermal vias, the device can handle its full rated current in continuous operation.\n\nNote: Infineon has designated the IRLML6401TRPBF-1 as discontinued (replaced by IRLML6401TRPBF). However, the device remains widely available from distributors with over 139K units in stock at Farnell alone. Multiple second-source manufacturers (VBsemi, Kexin, Born) produce compatible versions.","working_principle":"**P-Channel Enhancement MOSFET:** The IRLML6401 is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET. Current flows from source to drain when the gate-source voltage is negative (VGS < VGS(th)). When VGS is 0 V (gate at source potential), no channel forms and the device is off. Applying a negative VGS creates an inversion layer (channel) beneath the gate oxide, allowing holes to flow from source to drain.\n\n**Trench MOSFET Technology:** The IRLML6401 uses Infineon's trench gate technology, where the gate electrode is formed in a vertical trench etched into the silicon. This provides a much larger channel width per unit area compared to planar MOSFETs, resulting in lower RDS(on) for a given die size. The trench structure also reduces the gate charge, improving switching performance.\n\n**Low Threshold Voltage:** The -0.55 V typical threshold is designed for logic-level drive. At VGS = -2.5 V (available from 2.5 V or 3.3 V logic), the channel is fully enhanced with RDS(on) under 90 m\u03a9. At VGS = -4.5 V (available from 5 V logic or Li-ion battery), RDS(on) drops to 50 m\u03a9 maximum.\n\n**Body Diode:** The inherent P-N junction from body to drain creates a parasitic diode that conducts when VSD > 0.6 V. This diode is relevant in half-bridge and synchronous rectifier applications where it conducts during dead time.","pin_description":"<table><thead><tr><th>Pin<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>Type<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>1<\/td><th>Gate<\/td><th>I<\/td><th>Gate input; controls channel formation; VGS(th) = -0.55V typ; VGS max \u00b18V; 10nC gate charge; ESD protected; drive from MCU GPIO through series resistor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><th>Source<\/td><th>P<\/td><th>Source terminal; typically connected to VCC rail (high-side switch); current flows from source to drain when on; body diode anode<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><th>Drain<\/td><th>O<\/td><th>Drain terminal; connects to load; -4.3A continuous; -12V max VDS; body diode cathode; large tab for thermal dissipation on PCB<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>","application_scenarios":"<table><thead><tr><th>Application<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>High-Side Load Switch<\/td><th>P-channel as high-side switch between battery and load; MCU GPIO drives gate through resistor; source to battery, drain to load; no charge pump needed; 50m\u03a9 at -4.5V gives <50mV drop at 1A; suitable for 3.3V\/5V subsystem power control<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Battery Protection \/ Reverse Polarity<\/td><th>Prevent reverse battery connection; P-channel in series with battery; gate tied through Zener to source; conducts only when battery polarity correct; -12V rating covers single-cell Li-ion<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>DC-DC Converter High-Side Switch<\/td><th>P-channel high-side in async buck or inverting buck-boost; 10nC Qg supports 200-500kHz switching; gate driven from controller output; use when bootstrap N-channel drive is impractical<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>","alternative_models":"<table><thead><tr><th>Model<\/th><th>Manufacturer<\/th><th>Compatibility<\/th><th>Key Difference<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>IRLML6402TRPBF<\/td><th>Infineon<\/td><th>Series Variant (20V)<\/td><th>-20V VDS; -3.6A ID; 65m\u03a9@-4.5V; same SOT-23; higher voltage rating; lower current; use for 12V bus applications<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SI2301DS-T1-GE3<\/td><th>Vishay<\/td><th>Functional Equivalent<\/td><th>-20V P-ch; -2.2A; 90m\u03a9@-4.5V; SOT-23; Vishay-sourced alternative; higher voltage rating<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>AO3401A<\/td><th>Alpha & Omega<\/td><th>Competitive Upgrade<\/td><th>-30V P-ch; -4.3A; 36m\u03a9@-4.5V; SOT-23; lower RDS(on); higher voltage; use for improved efficiency<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>DMG2305UX-13<\/td><th>Diodes Inc<\/td><th>Competitive Alternative<\/td><th>-20V P-ch; -4.2A; 48m\u03a9@-4.5V; SOT-23; similar specs; Diodes Inc-sourced alternative<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2063","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2063"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2063\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2264"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2063"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2063"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2063"},{"taxonomy":"chip_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/materialparts.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chip_brand?post=2063"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
