Product details
Overview
SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel 20 V (D-S) TrenchFET® Gen III power MOSFET in TSOP-6 package, rated for -8 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C and featuring RDS(on) = 0.024 Ω at VGS = -4.5 V. It serves as a low-voltage load switch or battery disconnect device in space-constrained mobile power systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 pinout, SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 application, or SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -1.8 V gate-threshold compatibility, 100% Rg and UIS tested reliability, and thermal performance on FR4 with RthJA ≤ 62.5 °C/W under pulsed conditions.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-based silicon architecture optimized for low RDS(on) at logic-level gate drive (down to -1.8 V), enabling direct interface with 1.8 V/2.5 V microcontroller GPIOs without level shifting. Its single-channel configuration supports high-side switching in battery management circuits where source-referenced control is required.
The device integrates a robust body diode with trr = 21–32 ns and Qrr = 9–18 nC, supporting synchronous rectification and reverse-current blocking in portable DC-DC architectures. Absolute maximum ratings include -20 V VDS, ±8 V VGS, and 150 °C TJ, aligning with JEDEC MO-193C TSOP-6 mechanical standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -20 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for battery-switch applications up to 2-cell Li-ion stacks. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = -4.5 V | 0.024 Ω - Enables <190 mW conduction loss at -7.5 A, critical for thermally constrained handheld PCBs. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = -1.8 V | 0.0511 Ω - Supports direct logic-level drive from low-voltage MCUs without gate drivers. |
| Qg typ. | 19.8 nC - Low gate charge reduces switching energy and enables efficient PWM operation up to ~1 MHz. |
| ID continuous @ TC = 25 °C | -8 A - Sustains full load current when mounted on heatsinked copper area per Vishay's 1" × 1" FR4 test board. |
| RthJC max. | 35 °C/W - Defines junction-to-case thermal path for thermal design when using external heatsinking on drain pad. |
| VGS(th) | -0.4 to -1.0 V - Guaranteed turn-on threshold ensures reliable enhancement-mode operation across temperature and process variation. |
Pinout & Package
TSOP-6 surface-mount package (JEDEC MO-193C) with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; 3.05 mm × 2.85 mm footprint, 1.0 mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 4, 6 | Drain (D) | Common high-current output node; internally paralleled pins reduce resistance and improve thermal spreading to PCB copper. |
| 3 | Gate (G) | Control input; requires negative VGS for turn-on; low Ciss = 1825 pF minimizes driver loading. |
| 5 | Source (S) | Reference terminal for gate drive and current sensing; tied to system ground or battery positive in high-side switch configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen III process | Delivers industry-leading RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit for logic-level P-channel devices, reducing total switching + conduction losses. |
| 100 % Rg and UIS tested | Ensures gate resistance consistency and avalanche ruggedness for unclamped inductive switching in real-world load-dump events. |
| Body diode trr = 21–32 ns | Minimizes reverse-recovery losses during bidirectional current flow in battery protection IC co-designs. |
| Lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization standard (doc#99912). |

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) = 0.019 Ω @ -4.5 V; lower Qg = 16.5 nC; same TSOP-6 package. | Slightly higher cost; preferred where <150 mW conduction loss at 7 A is mandatory. | Select when optimizing for lowest possible RDS(on) without changing layout or drive voltage. |
| DMN2011LFG-7 | RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω @ -4.5 V; different 6-DFN package (2 × 2 mm); no exposed drain pad. | Requires PCB land pattern change; better thermal performance on 2-layer boards due to bottom-side thermal pad. | Choose for new designs prioritizing ultra-compact footprint and improved θJA on dense layouts. |
Compared with SI3493DDV-T1-GE3, Si3483DV-T1-GE3 offers marginally lower conduction loss but identical pinout and drive requirements, while DMN2011LFG-7 trades package compatibility for superior thermal resistance and smaller area-making it suitable only for greenfield designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 supports -8 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area and thermal vias per Vishay's recommended land pattern (Doc#72610), and reflects derating from the -8 A value at 25 °C case temperature.
Does SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 require a gate driver when used with a 1.8 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes, SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 is specifically characterized for VGS = -1.8 V operation, with RDS(on) = 0.0511 Ω guaranteed at that gate voltage. It can be driven directly by 1.8 V logic without an external gate driver, provided the MCU GPIO can sink sufficient current to charge Qg = 19.8 nC within required switching times.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 at DC and 10 ms pulse widths?
The SOA curve in the datasheet shows SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 is limited by RDS(on) at DC (continuous operation), supporting up to -8 A at VDS ≤ -2.5 V. At 10 ms pulses, it is limited by VDS breakdown, allowing up to -20 V at currents below -1.5 A - confirming suitability for transient overvoltage protection in battery lines.
How does the body diode performance of SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 impact its use in reverse-polarity protection?
The SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 body diode has VSD = -0.8 to -1.2 V at -6 A and trr = 21–32 ns, making it suitable for reverse-polarity protection where forward conduction is infrequent. However, for high-duty-cycle or high-frequency reverse-current paths, an external Schottky diode may be preferred to avoid body diode conduction losses.
Is SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations?
Yes, SI3493DDV-T1-GE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH SVHC requirements. Vishay documents this compliance under its material categorization standard (www.vishay.com/doc?99912), and the "-GE3" suffix explicitly denotes Green, lead-free, and halogen-free construction.
