Product details
Overview
SI4368DY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® Gen II power MOSFET optimized for low-side DC/DC conversion in notebook VRM modules and fixed telecom systems. It features a 30 V drain-source rating, 25 A continuous drain current at TJ = 150 °C, RDS(on) of 3.2 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, and extremely low Qgd (6.5 nC) to minimize switching losses.
For engineers reviewing the SI4368DY-T1-E3 datasheet, SI4368DY-T1-E3 pinout, SI4368DY-T1-E3 application, or SI4368DY-T1-E3 equivalent, this device is selected for high-efficiency synchronous buck converters where fast switching, low conduction loss, and thermal performance on FR4 PCBs are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve ultra-low gate-drain charge (Qgd = 6.5 nC) and input capacitance (Ciss = 8340 pF), enabling high-frequency operation with reduced Miller effect and improved hard-switching efficiency. Its RDS(on) remains stable across VGS = 4.5–10 V, supporting both 5 V and 12 V gate drive systems.
The SO-8 package provides a thermally enhanced footprint with low junction-to-foot resistance (RthJF = 13 °C/W typical), and its 100 % Rg tested gate resistance (0.8–1.8 Ω) ensures consistent turn-on/turn-off timing across production lots.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 24 V input rail systems and 5 V/3.3 V output VRMs. |
| RDS(on) | 3.2 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 25 A, critical for high-current CPU/GPU power stages. |
| Qgd | 6.5 nC - Minimizes Miller plateau duration and dv/dt-induced false turn-on in synchronous rectification. |
| ID (continuous) | 25 A @ TJ = 150 °C - Supports high-current density designs without forced air cooling on standard 1" × 1" FR4 boards. |
| Ciss | 8340 pF @ VDS = 15 V - Defines gate drive strength requirement; ~53 nC total Qg demands ≥1 A peak gate driver capability. |
| RthJA | 67 °C/W (steady state) - Limits junction temperature rise to ~112 °C at 25 A conduction loss (1.9 W), assuming 25 °C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
SI4368DY-T1-E3 is housed in a standard SO-8 (MS-012) surface-mount package with exposed drain pads for thermal enhancement. The package measures 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.55 mm (D × E × A) and uses JEDEC-compliant SOIC-N pin spacing (1.27 mm pitch).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Seven parallel drain terminals connected internally to the MOSFET die's drain metallization and exposed copper pad - primary heat path and high-current return path. |
| 6 | Gate (G) | Single gate input terminal - requires low-inductance routing and local 10 nF bypass capacitor to suppress ringing during fast switching. |
| Source (S) | Source (S) | Terminal shared by pins 1–5 and 7–8 via internal source bonding wires - forms the reference node for gate drive and current sensing in low-side configuration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Extremely low Qgd | 6.5 nC - Reduces Miller-induced delay and enables >1 MHz switching in synchronous buck topologies without shoot-through risk. |
| TrenchFET® Gen II architecture | Optimized cell pitch and trench depth - delivers 15% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. prior generation for same die size. |
| 100 % Rg tested | Gate resistance 0.8–1.8 Ω - Ensures predictable turn-on time and eliminates need for external gate resistor tuning in volume production. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS-compliant | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and Directive 2002/95/EC - qualifies for green electronics manufacturing and export to EU/China markets. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF7470PBF | RDS(on) = 3.5 mΩ @ 10 V; Qgd = 8.2 nC; SO-8 package; no Rg test screening | Higher switching loss in >500 kHz designs due to +26 % Qgd; less consistent gate timing across lot | Acceptable for cost-sensitive telecom PSUs where switching frequency ≤300 kHz and gate drive strength is ample. |
| NTMFS4C06N | RDS(on) = 2.8 mΩ @ 10 V; Qgd = 5.9 nC; PowerSO-8 package; 100 % Rg tested; halogen-free | Lower conduction loss but tighter layout constraints due to different thermal pad geometry and leadframe design | Preferred for new designs targeting <1.5 W conduction loss at 25 A, provided PCB land pattern is updated per ON Semi's recommended footprint. |
Compared with IRF7470PBF and NTMFS4C06N, the SI4368DY-T1-E3 offers the best balance of ultra-low Qgd, production-tested Rg, and proven thermal performance on standard SO-8 footprints-making it ideal for high-reliability, high-frequency VRM upgrades without board rework.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI4368DY-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient?
The SI4368DY-T1-E3 supports 20 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C when mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the SO-8 package under natural convection; forced airflow or enhanced copper pour can extend usable current capacity.
Does SI4368DY-T1-E3 require a gate resistor for stable operation?
The SI4368DY-T1-E3 has a tested gate resistance of 0.8–1.8 Ω and is designed for direct connection to gate drivers capable of ≥1 A peak output. A small series gate resistor (1–5 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing and control dV/dt, but no large limiting resistor is needed due to the built-in Rg consistency.
Is SI4368DY-T1-E3 suitable for 4.5 V gate drive applications?
Yes - the SI4368DY-T1-E3 specifies RDS(on) = 3.6 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 22 A, confirming full enhancement with standard 5 V logic-level controllers. Its VGS(th) range (0.6–1.8 V) ensures reliable turn-on even with gate drive tolerances.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for SI4368DY-T1-E3 in linear mode?
The SI4368DY-T1-E3 SOA curve shows DC operation is limited by RDS(on) at VDS < 5 V and by thermal constraints above that. At VDS = 10 V, maximum DC current is ~5 A; at VDS = 20 V, it drops to ~2.5 A - always verify junction temperature using RthJA = 67 °C/W and PD = I2 × RDS(on).
How does the thermal performance of SI4368DY-T1-E3 compare between junction-to-ambient and junction-to-foot?
The SI4368DY-T1-E3 has RthJA = 67 °C/W (steady state) and RthJF = 13 °C/W (steady state), meaning most heat flows through the drain pad into the PCB. Effective thermal design requires a minimum 1" × 1" copper pour connected to all seven drain pins - reducing system-level thermal resistance by up to 5× vs. minimal copper.
