Product details
Overview
SI4418DY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 200-V TrenchFET® power MOSFET in SO-8 package, rated for 3 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, with RDS(on) = 0.130 Ω at VGS = 10 V and 3 A - designed for primary-side switching in offline AC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SI4418DY-T1-E3 datasheet, SI4418DY-T1-E3 pinout, SI4418DY-T1-E3 application, or SI4418DY-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200-V VDS, low gate charge (20–30 nC), robust avalanche rating (EAS = 1.8 mJ), thermal resistance (RthJA = 71 °C/W steady-state), and Pb-free RoHS-compliant construction.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Vishay's TrenchFET® process to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching performance. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2–4 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drivers, while the 100 % Rg tested specification guarantees consistent gate resistance (1–3.4 Ω) across production lots.
The device supports unclamped inductive switching with a rated single-pulse avalanche energy of 1.8 mJ and withstands 200-V drain-source blocking. Its SO-8 footprint enables surface-mount integration into compact power stages without requiring heatsinking for moderate-power applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 200 V - supports primary-side switching in universal-input (85–265 VAC) offline flyback and forward converters. |
| RDS(on) | 0.130 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 3 A - limits conduction loss to ≤1.17 W at full rated current. |
| Qg | 20–30 nC - enables efficient 100-kHz+ switching with moderate gate drive strength (e.g., 1-A peak driver). |
| EAS | 1.8 mJ - provides margin against inductive energy spikes during hard-switching or fault conditions. |
| RthJA | 71 °C/W (steady-state) - allows ~2.5 W dissipation at 25 °C ambient before reaching 150 °C junction limit. |
| ID (cont) | 3 A @ TA = 25 °C - defines maximum DC load current under standard PCB mounting (1" × 1" FR4). |
| VGS(th) | 2–4 V - ensures compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller GPIO or dedicated gate drivers. |
Pinout & Package
SO-8 surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal performance. Pin 1–8 arranged as per top-view diagram: pins 1–4 = S, S, D, D; pins 5–8 = D, D, G, D (drain-connected pins 3, 4, 5, 6, 8; source pins 1, 2; gate pin 7).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | Source | Low-side return path; tied together internally and externally for lowest source inductance. |
| 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 | Drain | High-voltage power node; multiple pins reduce current density and improve thermal conduction to PCB copper. |
| 7 | Gate | Control input; requires <20 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±20 V max rating). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® technology | Enables lower RDS(on) and higher cell density than planar MOSFETs, improving power density in space-constrained SMPS designs. |
| 100 % Rg tested | Ensures gate resistance between 1–3.4 Ω across all units, enabling predictable gate drive timing and reduced layout sensitivity. |
| Halogen-free construction | Complies with IEC 61249-2-21, supporting environmentally regulated industrial and consumer end-equipment. |
| Lead (Pb)-free (RoHS) | Meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile requirements for lead-free assembly. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP2NK20Z | 200 V, 2 A, RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω @ 10 V - higher on-resistance and lower current rating. | Suitable only for ≤15 W flyback designs due to lower ID and higher conduction loss. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency needs and board space permits larger thermal relief. |
| IRF640NPBF | 200 V, 18 A, RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω @ 10 V - TO-220 package, higher current but larger footprint and worse thermal resistance. | Requires heatsink for >1.5 W dissipation; not suitable for high-density SMT layouts. | Choose for legacy through-hole designs or where higher peak current capability is required despite larger size. |
Compared with STP2NK20Z and IRF640NPBF, the SI4418DY-T1-E3 delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), compact SO-8 packaging, and proven avalanche ruggedness - making it preferred for modern SMT-based, medium-power primary-side switching where thermal and space constraints are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4418DY-T1-E3 at 85 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4418DY-T1-E3 supports 2.1 A continuous drain current at TA = 85 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the SO-8 package on standard FR4 PCBs; actual usable current depends on copper area, airflow, and layout. The SI4418DY-T1-E3 must be operated within this limit to avoid exceeding the 150 °C maximum junction temperature.
Does SI4418DY-T1-E3 have integrated avalanche ruggedness, and what is its rated energy?
Yes, the SI4418DY-T1-E3 is rated for unclamped inductive switching with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 1.8 mJ at TJ = 25 °C. This value is measured with L = 0.1 mH and is validated per JEDEC standards. The SI4418DY-T1-E3 uses TrenchFET® technology to sustain this energy without failure, providing design margin in flyback and forward converter primary switches.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SI4418DY-T1-E3, and how does it affect drive compatibility?
The SI4418DY-T1-E3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2–4 V at ID = 250 µA. This ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level gate drivers, including microcontroller GPIOs with appropriate buffering. The SI4418DY-T1-E3 remains fully enhanced above 6 V, delivering its specified RDS(on) of 0.142 Ω at VGS = 6 V and 2.8 A.
Is SI4418DY-T1-E3 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the SI4418DY-T1-E3 is explicitly marked "Lead (Pb)-free" and qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its SO-8 package meets IPC/JEDEC specifications for moisture sensitivity level (MSL) and thermal cycling endurance. The SI4418DY-T1-E3 may be processed using peak temperatures up to 260 °C without degradation.
How many drain pins does SI4418DY-T1-E3 have in its SO-8 package, and why is this important?
The SI4418DY-T1-E3 has five drain-connected pins (pins 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8) in its SO-8 package. This multi-pin drain configuration lowers effective package inductance and improves thermal conduction from the die to the PCB copper pour. For the SI4418DY-T1-E3, this design directly supports higher switching efficiency and better thermal management in high-frequency power stages.
