Product details
Overview
SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 60 V, 11.3 A TrenchFET® Gen IV power MOSFET in SO-8 package, with RDS(on) = 0.0195 Ω at VGS = 10 V and 0.0250 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V, optimized for synchronous rectification and DC/DC converter primary-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 pinout, SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 application, or SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V VDS, low gate charge (Qg = 5.2 nC typ. at 4.5 V), 100% Rg and UIS tested reliability, thermal resistance RthJF = 22 °C/W (steady state), and SO-8 footprint compatibility with standard PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs TrenchFET® Gen IV silicon technology to deliver enhanced conduction efficiency and fast switching performance. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1–2.8 V) supports 4.5 V logic-level drive, while dynamic parameters-including Ciss = 790 pF, Coss = 330 pF, and Crss = 14 pF-enable high-frequency operation in hard-switched topologies.
The device integrates a robust body diode with VSD = 0.79 V (typ.) at IS = 5 A and trr = 30 ns (typ.), supporting bidirectional current handling in synchronous rectifier configurations. Thermal design is facilitated by a low junction-to-foot resistance (RthJF = 22 °C/W) and validated 150 °C maximum junction temperature rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for primary-side switch applications up to 48 V bus systems. |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 0.0195 Ω - Enables <1.9 W conduction loss at 10 A, critical for high-efficiency DC/DC converters. |
| RDS(on) @ 4.5 V | 0.0250 Ω - Ensures full enhancement with 5 V microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| Qg (4.5 V) | 5.2 nC - Reduces gate drive power and switching losses in 300–1000 kHz SMPS designs. |
| ID (TC = 25 °C) | 11.3 A - Continuous current rating enabling compact thermal design with minimal heatsinking. |
| RthJF | 22 °C/W - Junction-to-foot thermal resistance allows direct thermal coupling to copper pour or heatsink via exposed drain pads. |
| trr | 30 ns - Fast body diode recovery minimizes shoot-through risk and improves light-load efficiency in synchronous rectifiers. |
Pinout & Package
SO-8 (narrow-body, MS-012 compliant) surface-mount package with exposed drain paddle for thermal and electrical connection. Dimensions: 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm × 1.55 mm (L × W × H); lead pitch = 1.27 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (D), Source (S), Gate (G) | Pins 1–3 and 5–8 are internally connected to drain (D); pins 4 and 6 are source (S); pin 7 is gate (G). Drain terminals form a single low-inductance, high-current path to PCB copper pour. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen IV silicon | Delivers 23% lower RDS(on) vs. prior generation at same die size, improving power density in space-constrained converters. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 is 9 A at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating reflects derating due to thermal constraints and assumes proper PCB copper area for heat dissipation. The SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 maintains safe operation within its 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit under these conditions.
Does SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 support 3.3 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes, SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 supports 3.3 V logic-level gate drive: its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 1.0 V to 2.8 V, and RDS(on) is specified at 4.5 V (0.0250 Ω max). At 3.3 V, the device remains partially enhanced and delivers usable conduction-though full enhancement requires ≥4.5 V. For robust 3.3 V operation, verify actual RDS(on) and switching timing in the target application using the SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 transfer characteristics curve.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to foot (RthJF) for SI4850BDY-T1-GE3?
The junction-to-foot thermal resistance (RthJF) for SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 is 22 °C/W typical and 28 °C/W maximum under steady-state conditions. This parameter enables direct thermal coupling of the drain paddle to a PCB thermal pad or external heatsink, significantly improving power handling over junction-to-ambient paths. The SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 leverages this low RthJF to sustain >2.5 W dissipation on standard FR4 boards.
Is SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification in isolated flyback converters?
Yes, SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 is well-suited for synchronous rectification in isolated flyback converters. Its low RDS(on) (0.0250 Ω at 4.5 V), fast body diode (trr = 30 ns), and low Qg (5.2 nC) enable high efficiency across wide load ranges. The SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 also features 100% UIS testing, ensuring reliability during voltage overshoot events common in flyback secondary-side switching.
What does the "-GE3" suffix indicate in SI4850BDY-T1-GE3?
The "-GE3" suffix in SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 denotes Vishay's lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free packaging per JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 3A standards. It confirms compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and indicates tape-and-reel packaging (T1) in 3,000-unit reels. The SI4850BDY-T1-GE3 uses matte tin plating and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1), allowing unlimited floor life at ≤30 °C/60% RH.
