Product details
Overview
SI4346DY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 30-V (D-S) TrenchFET® Gen II Power MOSFET in SO-8 package, with RDS(on) = 0.023 Ω at VGS = 10 V, 8 A continuous drain current, and 6.5 nC total gate charge - optimized for high-side DC/DC conversion in notebook and server power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI4346DY-T1-E3 datasheet, SI4346DY-T1-E3 pinout, SI4346DY-T1-E3 application, or SI4346DY-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include low RDS(on) at 4.5 V (0.025 Ω), 100 % Rg tested gate resistance, halogen-free compliance per IEC 61249-2-21, and thermal performance validated on 1" × 1" FR4 board.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-based silicon architecture to achieve enhanced conduction efficiency and fast switching dynamics. Its gate threshold voltage (0.7–2.0 V) enables reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drivers, and its low Qgd/Qg ratio (1.1/6.5 nC) supports efficient hard-switching operation in synchronous buck converters.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = 0.75–1.1 V at IS = 2.2 A and exhibits controlled reverse recovery (trr = 20–35 ns), making it suitable for both high-side and low-side configurations where diode conduction occurs during dead-time intervals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - maximum blocking voltage compatible with 24-V input rails and transient margin in point-of-load converters |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 0.023 Ω - enables ≤1.5 W conduction loss at 8 A, critical for thermally constrained notebook PCBs |
| ID (continuous) | 8 A @ TA = 25 °C - supports mid-power CPU/GPU VRMs without forced airflow |
| Qg | 6.5 nC - reduces driver power demand and switching loss in 300–1000 kHz DC/DC topologies |
| RthJA | 74 °C/W (steady state) - defines thermal derating curve for SO-8 layout on standard FR4 |
| VGS(th) | 0.7–2.0 V - ensures robust gate drive margin with 3.3 V or 5 V controllers |
| VSD | 0.75–1.1 V - limits body-diode conduction loss during synchronous rectification dead time |
Pinout & Package
SO-8 (narrow-body, MS-012 compliant) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement; 100 % Rg tested and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (D), Source (S), Gate (G) | Pins 1–4 and 6–8 are parallel-connected Drain terminals; Pin 5 is Gate; Pins 2–4 and 6–7 are Source - dual-source/dual-drain configuration lowers parasitic inductance and improves current sharing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen II architecture | Delivers lower RDS(on) per die area than planar MOSFETs, enabling higher power density in SO-8 footprint |
| 100 % Rg tested | Ensures consistent gate drive timing and eliminates outliers in high-volume synchronous converter designs |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.17) | Reduces Miller-induced switching delay and improves controllability under high dV/dt conditions |
| Body diode trr = 20–35 ns | Minimizes reverse recovery energy loss and EMI generation in hard-switched topologies |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si4336DY-T1-E3 | RDS(on) = 0.019 Ω @ 10 V, 10 A ID, same SO-8 package but higher gate charge (8.5 nC) | Better conduction loss at high current, but increased driver loss and slower switching | Select when conduction loss dominates over switching loss, e.g., low-frequency (<300 kHz) high-current VRMs |
| IRF7470PBF | 30 V, RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω @ 10 V, SO-8, but no 100 % Rg test and higher Qg (12 nC) | Higher gate drive power and less predictable turn-on timing in high-speed control loops | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs timing consistency requirements in non-critical power stages |
Compared with Si4336DY-T1-E3 and IRF7470PBF, SI4346DY-T1-E3 offers optimal balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and guaranteed Rg matching - making it preferred for mid-frequency, medium-current synchronous buck converters where thermal and timing predictability are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI4346DY-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4346DY-T1-E3 supports 6.5 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C with surface mounting on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. This rating reflects thermal derating due to reduced heat dissipation at elevated ambient temperatures and assumes no additional heatsinking. The SI4346DY-T1-E3 must be operated within its Safe Operating Area (SOA) limits, especially under pulsed conditions, to avoid secondary breakdown.
Does SI4346DY-T1-E3 have a specified gate resistance value, and is it production-tested?
Yes, the SI4346DY-T1-E3 has a typical gate resistance (Rg) of 0.5 Ω, with a guaranteed range of 0.25–0.75 Ω. Crucially, every unit undergoes 100 % Rg testing during manufacturing - a key differentiator that ensures consistent gate drive timing and minimizes variation in switching behavior across production lots of SI4346DY-T1-E3.
Can SI4346DY-T1-E3 be used as a low-side synchronous rectifier with 4.5 V gate drive?
Yes, the SI4346DY-T1-E3 is fully specified for low-side operation with 4.5 V gate drive: its RDS(on) is 0.025 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 7.5 A. This makes it suitable for synchronous rectification in 5 V or 3.3 V output converters where controller outputs are logic-level. The SI4346DY-T1-E3 body diode forward voltage (0.75–1.1 V) further supports efficient freewheeling during dead time.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to foot (RthJF) for SI4346DY-T1-E3, and why does it matter?
The SI4346DY-T1-E3 has a typical RthJF of 22 °C/W (maximum 27 °C/W), measured from junction to the exposed drain pad (foot). This parameter is critical for designs using copper pour or thermal vias under the SO-8 drain leads - it enables accurate estimation of junction temperature rise when the drain is soldered directly to a large PCB copper area, bypassing the higher RthJA path through air.
Is SI4346DY-T1-E3 halogen-free, and which standard does it meet?
Yes, the SI4346DY-T1-E3 is halogen-free in accordance with IEC 61249-2-21. This compliance is explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet (Document Number: 72958, Rev. E) and applies to the Si4346DY-T1-E3 variant. It confirms absence of chlorine and bromine-based flame retardants in the molding compound, supporting RoHS-compliant and environmentally regulated end equipment.
