MOSFET Part Audit


Audit complete. I added the official Vishay datasheet URL: https://www.vishay.com/docs/77128/sqj128elp.pdf.
Key findings
  • 30 V N-channel automotive MOSFET, PowerPAK SO-8L
  • ±20 V VGS; RDS(on) max 1.15 mΩ at 10 V and 1.66 mΩ at 4.5 V
  • AEC-Q101 qualified; −55 °C to +175 °C
  • Critical mismatch: pins 1 and 4 are swapped. Datasheet: 1=Gate, 2/3/4=Source, 5=Drain; current part: 1=Source, 4=Gate
  • Symbol is not a conventional MOSFET symbol; pin types and descriptions are missing
  • Footprint lead pads differ from Vishay’s current recommended land pattern and require CAD-overlay review
  • Package property is missing, and the U designator prefix should normally be Q
No pin or geometry changes were made. I filed a part-quality report for the critical mapping and asset issues.
are you sure the Pins 1 and 4 are swapped. Datasheet: 1=Gate, 2/3/4=Source, 5=Drain; current part: 1=Source, 4=Gate?
I’ll re-check the manufacturer’s pin diagram and distinguish physical left-to-right orientation from actual pad numbers; the image may reveal that my earlier interpretation was wrong.
I’m checking the official top-view numbering against the current pad order now.
The rendered datasheet drawing confirms the earlier claim was wrong: its bottom-view row is 4=G, 3=S, 2=S, 1=S, matching your image’s top-view left-to-right S, S, S, G.
You’re right to question it—my earlier pin-swap finding was incorrect.
The datasheet package drawing confirms:
  • Pin 1 = Source
  • Pin 2 = Source
  • Pin 3 = Source
  • Pin 4 = Gate
  • Pin 5 / exposed pad = Drain
The datasheet’s bottom view reads left-to-right 4=G, 3=S, 2=S, 1=S. In your shown top view, that becomes left-to-right 1=S, 2=S, 3=S, 4=G, exactly as drawn.
Therefore, the current symbol and footprint pin assignments are correct. I apologize for the earlier orientation error.
