Product details
Overview
SI1422DH-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET in SOT-363 (SC-70) package, rated for 12 V VDS, 4 A continuous drain current at TF = 25 °C, 0.026 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V, and 7.5 nC total gate charge - optimized for high-frequency load switching in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SI1422DH-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI1422DH-T1-GE3 pinout, SI1422DH-T1-GE3 application, or SI1422DH-T1-GE3 equivalent, this device supports low-voltage battery switching, PA enable control, and compact DC-DC converter synchronous rectification where space-constrained thermal performance and sub-1-VGS(th) logic-level drive are required.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance with fast switching dynamics: typical Ciss = 725 pF, Coss = 195 pF, and Crss = 90 pF at VDS = 6 V, enabling efficient operation above 1 MHz in buck converters. Its 0.4–1.0 V gate threshold voltage allows direct interfacing with 1.8 V and 2.5 V logic controllers without level shifting.
The device integrates four parallel drain terminals in its 6-pin SC-70 package to reduce both RDS(on) and junction-to-foot thermal resistance (RthJF = 34 °C/W typ.), supporting stable 4 A operation on minimal PCB copper area - critical for ultra-thin mobile and wearable power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 12 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with single-cell Li-ion (4.2 V) and dual-cell alkaline (3 V) systems with margin. |
| RDS(on) | 0.026 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V - Enables <105 mW conduction loss at 4 A, reducing thermal stress in unheatsinked layouts. |
| ID (continuous) | 4 A at TF = 25 °C - Package-limited current suitable for medium-power load switches and synchronous rectifiers. |
| Qg | 7.5 nC at VGS = 4.5 V - Low gate charge enables fast turn-on with minimal driver strength (e.g., GPIO-driven). |
| VGS(th) | 0.4–1.0 V - Guaranteed logic-level compatibility with 1.8 V microcontrollers and baseband ICs without external bias. |
| RthJA | 60–80 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance measured on 1" × 1" FR4 board, defining safe operating power envelope. |
| Body diode VSD | 0.8–1.2 V at IS = 7.2 A - Low forward drop supports efficient freewheeling in synchronous buck topologies. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 (SC-70) 6-lead surface-mount package with copper leadframe, footprint per Vishay AN826 (0.026" pitch, 2.438 mm × 1.702 mm pad pattern), optimized for thermal dissipation via four parallel drain leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Drain | One of four parallel drain connections; shares current path to minimize RDS(on) and thermal resistance. |
| 2 | Drain | Second drain terminal; electrically identical to Pin 1 - used for PCB copper spreading and thermal relief. |
| 3 | Gate | Control input; low capacitance (Ciss = 725 pF) enables fast switching with minimal gate driver loading. |
| 4 | Drain | Third drain terminal; contributes to reduced package inductance and improved high-frequency EMI behavior. |
| 5 | Drain | Fourth drain terminal; provides redundant thermal path to PCB copper, lowering effective RthJA. |
| 6 | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; tied to system ground or low-side switch return path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® architecture | Enables 0.026 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V in SC-70 - 30% lower than comparable planar MOSFETs in same footprint. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel load switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si1304DL-T1-GE3 | 12 V VDS, 0.032 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V, SOT-23-3 package, higher RthJA (150 °C/W) | Single-drain configuration limits thermal handling; suitable only for <2 A continuous loads | Select when board space is constrained to 3-pin footprint and peak current ≤ 2 A |
| DMN10H7TIS-13 | 10 V VDS, 0.022 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V, X2-DFN1010-6 package, lower Qg (5.8 nC) | Narrower voltage rating restricts use to ≤10 V systems; superior high-frequency efficiency but less margin for transient spikes | Select when operating strictly within 10 V rail and prioritizing <100 ns switching speed over voltage headroom |
Compared with SI1422DH-T1-GE3, Si1304DL-T1-GE3 trades thermal robustness and current capacity for smaller footprint, while DMN10H7TIS-13 offers faster switching and lower on-resistance at the cost of reduced voltage safety margin - making SI1422DH-T1-GE3 the balanced choice for 12 V portable systems requiring reliability, efficiency, and manufacturability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI1422DH-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI1422DH-T1-GE3 supports 4 A continuous drain current at TF = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table under "Continuous Drain Current (TJ = 150 °C)" with footnote a. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area and thermal management per Vishay's recommended pad pattern in AN826.
Does SI1422DH-T1-GE3 require a gate resistor for stable switching in 1 MHz DC-DC applications?
While not mandatory, a 1–5 Ω gate resistor is recommended for SI1422DH-T1-GE3 in 1 MHz applications to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and match the device's 0.5–2.5 Ω intrinsic gate resistance (Rg). The low 7.5 nC Qg allows clean edges even with weak drivers, but external Rg improves EMI and reduces overshoot.
Can SI1422DH-T1-GE3 be used as a high-side switch with 3.3 V logic control?
Yes - SI1422DH-T1-GE3 has a guaranteed VGS(th) of 0.4–1.0 V and RDS(on) = 0.030 Ω at VGS = 2.5 V, making it fully compatible with 3.3 V GPIOs. For high-side configuration, ensure the source is referenced to the switched rail and gate drive is referenced to source potential, typically using a charge pump or level-shifting circuit.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to foot (RthJF) for SI1422DH-T1-GE3, and why does it matter?
The SI1422DH-T1-GE3 has a typical RthJF of 34 °C/W, measured from die junction to drain foot on PCB. This parameter matters because it defines how effectively heat flows from the MOSFET die into the PCB copper - critical for sustaining 4 A current without exceeding 150 °C junction temperature in compact layouts where traditional heatsinking is impossible.
Is SI1422DH-T1-GE3 suitable for reverse polarity protection in 5 V USB-powered devices?
Yes - SI1422DH-T1-GE3 can serve as a low-loss reverse polarity protection switch in 5 V USB applications. With its 12 V VDS rating and 0.026 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V, it introduces <130 mV drop at 5 A, significantly lower than Schottky diodes. Its body diode blocks reverse current, and the logic-level gate enables direct MCU control for fault recovery sequencing.
