AO3421E

Alpha & Omega Semicon · MOSFETs · SOT-23-3

AO3421E from Alpha & Omega Semicon, in a SOT-23-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 G input Gate; gate-source voltage is limited to ±20 V absolute maximum, with a typical threshold of -2 V (-1.4 to -2.5 V).
2 S passive Source of the P-channel MOSFET; the body-diode continuous current is rated at -1.5 A.
3 D passive Drain; drain-source voltage is rated at -30 V, with continuous drain current of -3 A at TA=25°C and pulsed drain current of -18 A.
