FDS8840NZ-VB from VBsemi Elec, in a SO-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | S | passive | Source (S) of the N-channel MOSFET. Pins 1, 2, and 3 are internally connected together as the source terminal; carries the load current back to the return path (up to 18 A continuous at TC = 25 °C). |
| 2 | S | passive | Source (S) of the N-channel MOSFET. Tied in parallel with pins 1 and 3 to reduce package resistance and improve current handling. |
| 3 | S | passive | Source (S) of the N-channel MOSFET. Tied in parallel with pins 1 and 2; connect all three source pins together on the PCB. |
| 4 | G | input | Gate (G) of the N-channel MOSFET. High-impedance control input; VGS(th) = 1.0 to 3.0 V, absolute maximum VGS = ±20 V. Drive with 4.5 V or 10 V for full enhancement. |
| 5 | D | passive | Drain (D) of the N-channel MOSFET. Pins 5, 6, 7, and 8 are internally connected together as the drain terminal; VDS max = 40 V. |
| 6 | D | passive | Drain (D) of the N-channel MOSFET. Tied in parallel with pins 5, 7, and 8 to reduce package resistance and improve thermal performance (drain acts as the primary heat-sinking terminal). |
| 7 | D | passive | Drain (D) of the N-channel MOSFET. Tied in parallel with pins 5, 6, and 8; connect all four drain pins together on the PCB with a large copper pour for heat spreading. |
| 8 | D | passive | Drain (D) of the N-channel MOSFET. Tied in parallel with pins 5, 6, and 7 to share the drain current (ID up to 18 A continuous at TC = 25 °C). |
