Product details
Overview
SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel 20-V TrenchFET® MOSFET in TSOP-6 package, with RDS(on) = 0.0275 Ω at VGS = −4.5 V, −8.0 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C), and 26.2 nC total gate charge - optimized for high-efficiency load switching in portable power management.
For engineers reviewing the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 pinout, SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 application, or SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction, PWM-optimized dynamic performance, and verified 100 % Rg testing for gate drive consistency in battery-switching circuits.
Technical Context
This device implements a trench-based P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET architecture with negative threshold voltage (−0.4 to −0.9 V) and low gate-to-drain capacitance (Crss = 245 pF), enabling fast turn-off and reduced Miller-induced shoot-through risk in high-side switch configurations.
Its thermal design supports steady-state junction-to-foot resistance of 35 °C/W and junction-to-ambient up to 60 °C/W (t ≤ 5 s), with body diode recovery time (trr = 52–78 ns) and Qrr = 49.5–74.3 nC specified for synchronous rectification support in compact DC/DC converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −20 V - maximum blocking voltage for 12-V rail and Li-ion battery systems |
| RDS(on) | 0.0275 Ω @ VGS = −4.5 V - enables <180 mW conduction loss at 7 A |
| ID (cont) | −8.0 A @ TC = 25 °C - supports high-current load switching without external heatsink |
| Qg | 26.2 nC @ VGS = −4.5 V - ensures efficient PWM drive with low gate driver power demand |
| tr/tf | 72/84 ns - enables >1 MHz switching in compact point-of-load regulators |
| VGS(th) | −0.4 to −0.9 V - allows logic-level gate drive from 1.8–3.3 V controllers |
| trr | 52–78 ns - supports synchronous rectification with minimal reverse recovery loss |
Pinout & Package
TSOP-6 surface-mount package (3.05 mm × 2.85 mm × 1.0 mm), JEDEC MO-193C compliant, with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6 | Drain (D) | Common high-current output node; pins 1/2/5/6 internally connected to drain metallization and exposed pad |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Control input; requires negative bias relative to source to turn on; low Ciss (1805 pF) minimizes drive energy |
| 4 | Source (S) | Reference terminal for gate drive; tied to system ground or battery positive in high-side configuration |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® architecture | Enables lower RDS(on) per die area vs. planar MOSFETs, critical for space-constrained battery switches |
| PWM-optimized dynamics | Low Qgd/Qg ratio (7.14/26.2 ≈ 27 %) reduces switching transition time and EMI in pulse-width modulated loads |
| 100 % Rg tested | Guarantees gate resistance ≤10 Ω, ensuring consistent turn-on timing across production lots |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI3483DV-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.032 Ω @ −4.5 V; higher Qg = 32.5 nC; same TSOP-6 package | Slightly lower current rating (−7.0 A); less suitable for >6 A continuous loads | Choose when lower cost is prioritized over marginal RDS(on) improvement |
| DMN2023LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 0.029 Ω @ −4.5 V; SO-8 package; higher thermal resistance (RthJA = 70 °C/W) | Larger footprint; requires PCB copper pour for equivalent thermal performance | Prefer when existing SO-8 layout reuse is mandatory and board area is not constrained |
Compared with SI3493BDV-T1-GE3, SI3483DV-T1-GE3 trades 16 % higher conduction loss for lower unit cost, while DMN2023LSD-13 offers similar RDS(on) but demands more PCB area and thermal design effort - making SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 optimal for space- and efficiency-critical portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 supports −7.03 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the TSOP-6 package under sustained power dissipation, and must be validated against actual PCB copper area and ambient conditions in the final design. The SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 datasheet confirms this value is package-limited, not silicon-limited.
Does SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 require a negative gate drive voltage to operate?
Yes - the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET with VGS(th) ranging from −0.4 V to −0.9 V. To fully enhance the channel, the gate must be driven negative relative to the source (e.g., 0 V gate with source at +3.3 V). The SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 operates reliably down to VGS = −1.8 V, supporting direct interface with 1.8 V logic controllers.
What is the body diode forward voltage of SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 at −2.5 A?
The body diode forward voltage (VSD) of the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 is −0.8 V to −1.2 V at IS = −2.5 A and TJ = 25 °C, as specified in the Diode Characteristics section. This low VSD reduces conduction loss during reverse-current events, such as inductive flyback or bidirectional power flow - a key parameter for evaluating the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 in synchronous rectifier or battery-backup roles.
Is SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 suitable for use in automotive applications?
The SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is not recommended for automotive safety-critical systems. Its operating junction temperature range (−55 to +150 °C) meets extended industrial requirements, but Vishay does not specify automotive-grade qualification, stress testing, or PPAP documentation for the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3. For automotive use, consult Vishay's AEC-Q101-certified P-channel portfolio instead.
How does the halogen-free status of SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 impact PCB assembly?
The SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 complies with IEC 61249-2-21 for halogen-free materials (Cl/Br < 900 ppm each, total halogens < 1500 ppm), which eliminates corrosive acid gas formation during soldering and end-of-life incineration. This enables compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles and satisfies environmental compliance for consumer, medical, and industrial products - no process changes are needed to assemble the SI3493BDV-T1-GE3 versus standard Pb-free variants.
