Comments

SOT-363 is used for smaller SMD transistors and MOSFETs. It has a lead-pitch half of that of the SOT-323.

Polarity

Some components using the SOT-363 package do not require any polarity marking as the pins are rotationally symmetric. This is a common configuration for a two-device MOSFET component, in where the pinout is shown below:
