Low Rds(on) at the operating point that matters
The CSD16413Q5A: This is the conduction-loss spec that defines the part in a 12 V or 5 V rail — at 24 A the voltage drop is under 94 mV, which keeps the junction temperature rise manageable in a tight thermal budget. Gate charge is 11.7 nC at 4.5 V, enabling fast switching with a standard gate driver.
Thermal and package constraints for the layout
The 1780 pF input capacitance at 12.5 V Vds is moderate — a 10 Ω gate resistor will keep the switching edge under control without excessive ringing.
