Product details
Overview
SI4368DY-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® Gen II power MOSFET optimized for low-side DC/DC conversion in notebook, server, and VRM modules. It features 30 V VDS, 2.9 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 25 A continuous drain current, ultra-low Qgd (6.5 nC), and SO-8 package with halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction.
For engineers reviewing the SI4368DY-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI4368DY-T1-GE3 pinout, SI4368DY-T1-GE3 application, or SI4368DY-T1-GE3 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance values (RthJA = 67 °C/W), gate charge profile, diode recovery characteristics, and real-world use context for high-efficiency synchronous buck designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-based silicon architecture to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its extremely low Qgd/Qg ratio (≈12%) and 355 pF Crss support fast, low-loss turn-off in high-frequency synchronous rectification.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 42–60 ns reverse recovery time and 0.66–1.1 V forward voltage at 2.9 A, enabling efficient freewheeling in non-isolated DC/DC topologies without external Schottky supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Supports input rails up to 24 V nominal with margin for transient spikes in point-of-load converters. |
| RDS(on) | 2.6 mΩ typ. at VGS = 10 V, 25 A - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A in 12 V→1 V VRMs. |
| Qgd | 6.5 nC - Reduces Miller-induced switching delay and improves controllability during hard-switching transitions. |
| ID (continuous) | 25 A at TA = 25 °C - Sustains high-current operation on standard FR4 PCBs with 1" × 1" copper area. |
| RthJA | 67 °C/W (steady state) - Limits junction rise to ~110 °C at 2.2 W dissipation, supporting 150 °C max TJ. |
| VGS(th) | 0.6–1.8 V - Ensures reliable enhancement-mode turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V gate drivers. |
| Ciss/Coss/Crss | 8340 / 850 / 355 pF - Low Crss minimizes voltage-dependent gate drive demand and EMI generation. |
Pinout & Package
SO-8 (MS-012) surface-mount package with exposed drain paddle for thermal enhancement. Dimensions: 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.55 mm (D × E × A).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Internally paralleled drain terminals - primary current path and thermal conduction path to PCB copper. |
| 6 | Gate (G) | Control terminal requiring ≤1.2 Ω gate resistance to limit ringing and ensure stable 10 V switching. |
| Source (S) | Source (S) | Terminal 6 is Gate; Source is pins 1–5 and 7–8 are Drain; Source connects externally via pins 1–5 and 7–8 tied to ground plane - no dedicated source pin; source node is formed by PCB routing to drain-connected leads. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen II architecture | Delivers 20% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. prior-generation SO-8 MOSFETs at 30 V. |
| 100% Rg tested | Guarantees gate resistance between 0.8–1.8 Ω - critical for predictable turn-on timing and EMI control. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS-compliant | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and Directive 2002/95/EC - supports environmentally regulated industrial and computing end equipment. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | ~12% (6.5/53 nC) - minimizes Miller plateau duration and enables tighter dead-time control in synchronous buck controllers. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 42–60 ns - reduces reverse recovery loss and associated voltage overshoot during high-dI/dt freewheeling. |
Applications
| Notebook VRM Output Stage | Server Point-of-Load Converter |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary low-side switch in multiphase interleaved buck regulators operating at 500 kHz–1 MHz. Use Value: 8340 pF Ciss and 355 pF Crss enable clean gate drive waveforms with minimal shoot-through risk under fast dV/dt conditions. |
| Telecom DC/DC Module | Industrial Embedded Power Supply |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP036N04L | 40 V VDS, 3.6 mΩ RDS(on) @ 10 V, TO-252 package - higher voltage rating but larger footprint and 2× RthJA. | Preferred where 40 V system margin or higher avalanche energy (EAS = 120 mJ) is required; unsuitable for space-constrained SO-8 layouts. | Select when board layout allows DPAK and 40 V rating adds design margin; avoid if SO-8 footprint and thermal performance are mandatory. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C09NT1G | 30 V VDS, 2.7 mΩ RDS(on) @ 10 V, SO-8 - nearly identical RDS(on), but Qgd = 8.2 nC and Crss = 420 pF. | Slightly higher switching loss in >1 MHz designs due to elevated Crss; otherwise drop-in compatible in VRM and telecom applications. | Valid alternative where Vishay supply continuity is constrained; verify gate driver slew rate capability given higher Qgd. |
Compared with SI4368DY-T1-GE3, the IPP036N04L trades SO-8 compactness for higher voltage headroom and ruggedness, while the NTMFS4C09NT1G matches voltage and on-resistance but increases switching loss by ~18% due to higher Crss and Qgd.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4368DY-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4368DY-T1-GE3 supports 20 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C when mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits imposed by RthJA = 67 °C/W and 150 °C maximum junction temperature. The SI4368DY-T1-GE3 must be used within this boundary to ensure long-term reliability.
Does SI4368DY-T1-GE3 have a specified avalanche rating?
No, the SI4368DY-T1-GE3 datasheet does not specify unclamped inductive switching (UIS) or single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) ratings. While it can withstand limited avalanche stress due to its trench structure, Vishay does not guarantee or characterize avalanche capability for the SI4368DY-T1-GE3. Designers should avoid operation in avalanche mode and implement proper snubbing or clamping if inductive loads are present.
Is SI4368DY-T1-GE3 pin-compatible with other SO-8 N-channel MOSFETs like Si4800BDY?
The SI4368DY-T1-GE3 uses standard SO-8 (MS-012) pinout with Drain on pins 1–5 and 7–8, Gate on pin 6, and Source connected through PCB routing - not a dedicated pin. While physically compatible with SO-8 footprints, electrical compatibility depends on RDS(on), Qg, and thermal behavior. The Si4800BDY has different RDS(on) (4.5 mΩ) and Qg (60 nC), so direct substitution requires circuit revalidation. SI4368DY-T1-GE3 is not a guaranteed pin-to-pin replacement for Si4800BDY.
What is the typical gate threshold voltage range for SI4368DY-T1-GE3?
The SI4368DY-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranging from 0.6 V minimum to 1.8 V maximum at ID = 250 µA and TJ = 25 °C. This wide range ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V logic-level drivers while maintaining noise immunity. The SI4368DY-T1-GE3 remains fully enhanced above 2.5 V VGS, supporting standard 5 V gate drive systems.
How does the halogen-free designation affect SI4368DY-T1-GE3's material composition and reliability?
The "-GE3" suffix confirms SI4368DY-T1-GE3 meets IEC 61249-2-21 for halogen-free printed wiring board materials, meaning brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and chlorine content are restricted to <900 ppm each. This does not impact electrical performance or reliability - accelerated life testing shows no degradation in RDS(on), gate oxide integrity, or thermal cycling endurance versus lead-free variants. SI4368DY-T1-GE3 maintains full qualification per JESD22-A108.
