Typical applications
With its 40 V drain–source rating the TK10S04K3L sits in the low-voltage class of switching MOSFETs, typically found in 12 V and 24 V automotive and industrial rails, synchronous buck converters, load switching and reverse-polarity protection and H-bridges for small motors.
The low 0.028 Ω on-resistance keeps conduction loss down, which suits synchronous rectification and continuous high-current paths.
Gate drive and switching notes
Keep gate–source voltage within the ±20 V maximum; exceeding it punctures the gate oxide and destroys the device permanently.
Switching behaviour is characterised by a rise time of 7 ns and an output capacitance (Coss) of 100 pF, which together with the gate drive determines switching loss and the practical upper frequency limit.
Choosing a replacement for the TK10S04K3L
A drop-in substitute for the TK10S04K3L must be the same N-channel type and offer a drain–source rating of at least 40 V, a continuous drain current rating of at least 10 A and an on-resistance no higher than 0.028 Ω if efficiency and heat matter.
Mechanically, check the replacement against the DPAK footprint and confirm the pin order — parts sharing a package outline do not always share a pinout.
Where the application switches inductive loads or runs near the voltage limit, keep extra headroom rather than choosing a part that only just meets the original numbers.
Frequently asked questions
What is the TK10S04K3L?
The TK10S04K3L is an N-channel MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). It is rated for 40 V drain-source and 10 A continuous drain current.
What is the maximum voltage of the TK10S04K3L?
The TK10S04K3L has a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 40 V. Treat this as an absolute maximum and design with margin, especially when switching inductive loads.
How much current can the TK10S04K3L handle?
It is rated for 10 A of continuous drain current, with power dissipation limited to 25 W. Real-world capability depends on your heatsinking and ambient temperature.
What is the on-resistance of the TK10S04K3L?
On-resistance (Rds(on)) is 0.028 Ω. Multiply by the square of your load current to estimate conduction loss.
What package does the TK10S04K3L come in?
It is listed in DPAK. Verify the pinout of the specific variant, as one outline can carry different pin assignments.
What can I use to replace the TK10S04K3L?
No verified equivalents are listed yet. Choose a part of the same polarity that meets or exceeds every rating above and shares a compatible package and pinout.
