Product details
Overview
SI4386DY-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® Gen II power MOSFET optimized for PWM in DC/DC conversion, featuring 30 V VDS, 7.0 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 VGS, 16 A continuous drain current (TA = 25 °C), 11 nC total gate charge, and SO-8 package. It serves as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or main switch in PC motherboard VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the SI4386DY-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI4386DY-T1-GE3 pinout, SI4386DY-T1-GE3 application, or SI4386DY-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 4.5 VGS, thermal resistance to ambient (RthJA = 40 °C/W max), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 20 mJ), and halogen-free compliance per IEC 61249-2-21.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology with reduced gate charge and fast switching characteristics, enabling high-frequency operation in buck converters. Its 100 % Rg tested gate resistance (0.8–2.5 Ω) ensures consistent turn-on/turn-off timing across production lots.
The device integrates a body diode with 0.75–1.1 V forward voltage at 2.8 A, supporting synchronous rectification without external diodes. Thermal design is guided by junction-to-foot resistance (RthJF = 22 °C/W max) and steady-state junction-to-ambient resistance (71–85 °C/W).
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF7470PBF | RDS(on) = 8.0 mΩ @ 10 VGS; Qg = 14 nC; same SO-8 package but non-halogen-free | Higher gate charge increases driver losses above 500 kHz; lacks halogen-free certification | Select when halogen-free compliance is not required and gate drive capability exceeds 14 nC |
| DMN3026LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 6.5 mΩ @ 10 VGS; Qg = 12.5 nC; lead-free only (not halogen-free); different pinout (G-S-D-S-D-S-D-G) | Lower RDS(on) improves conduction loss, but incompatible pinout requires PCB redesign | Select only for new designs where layout revision is acceptable and maximum efficiency is prioritized |
Compared with IRF7470PBF and DMN3026LSD-13, SI4386DY-T1-GE3 provides the optimal balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, halogen-free compliance, and verified SO-8 pin compatibility-making it suitable for drop-in replacement in existing PC VRM designs without requalification.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4386DY-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4386DY-T1-GE3 supports 13 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value accounts for thermal derating due to reduced heat dissipation at elevated ambient temperatures and assumes standard mounting on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. The SI4386DY-T1-GE3 must be used within this limit to maintain safe junction temperature below 150 °C.
Does SI4386DY-T1-GE3 support 4.5 V gate drive in logic-level applications?
Yes, SI4386DY-T1-GE3 is fully characterized for 4.5 V gate drive: its RDS(on) is guaranteed at 9.5 mΩ (max) at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 13.5 A. This makes the SI4386DY-T1-GE3 suitable for 5 V or 3.3 V logic-compatible PWM controllers without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the avalanche energy rating of SI4386DY-T1-GE3 and how is it validated?
The SI4386DY-T1-GE3 has a single-pulse avalanche energy rating of 20 mJ, measured under standardized test conditions (L = 0.1 mH, IAS = 20 A). This rating is guaranteed by design and verified through qualification testing per Vishay's internal reliability standards-not production-tested per unit-but confirmed across wafer lots and package variants.
Is SI4386DY-T1-GE3 pin-compatible with earlier Si4386DY-T1-E3?
Yes, SI4386DY-T1-GE3 is mechanically and electrically pin-compatible with Si4386DY-T1-E3. Both share identical SO-8 packaging, pinout, and electrical specifications; the only difference is that SI4386DY-T1-GE3 adds halogen-free compliance per IEC 61249-2-21 while maintaining full backward compatibility with existing PCB layouts and schematics.
What thermal resistance values apply to SI4386DY-T1-GE3 in typical PCB mounting?
For SI4386DY-T1-GE3 mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, the typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 34 °C/W for t ≤ 10 s pulses and 71 °C/W at steady state. Junction-to-foot resistance is 18 °C/W typical, enabling direct thermal path to inner-layer copper planes when the exposed drain pad is soldered to a thermal pad.
