Product details
Overview
SI4850EY-T1 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET in SO-8 package, rated for 60 V VDS, 0.022 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 8.5 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C. It delivers fast switching with 18–27 nC total gate charge and supports operation up to 175 °C junction temperature in DC-DC converters and motor control stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI4850EY-T1 datasheet, SI4850EY-T1 pinout, SI4850EY-T1 application, or SI4850EY-T1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low Qg/RDS(on) ratio, SO-8 thermal performance (RthJA = 75 °C/W steady-state), and verified avalanche energy rating of 11 mJ - critical for inductive load switching reliability.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology optimized for reduced gate charge and enhanced switching efficiency in medium-voltage, moderate-current applications. Its 60 V breakdown voltage and 0.031 Ω RDS(on) at 4.5 V VGS enable robust 3.3 V/5 V logic-level drive compatibility without gate boosting.
The device integrates a body diode with 0.8–1.2 V forward voltage at 1.7 A and exhibits 50–80 ns reverse recovery time, supporting synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and half-bridge topologies where diode conduction loss must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Withstands up to 60 V drain-source potential before breakdown, suitable for 48 V bus and 24 V industrial systems. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 0.022 Ω - Enables ≤1.1 W conduction loss at 7 A, reducing thermal stress in compact SO-8 layouts. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 4.5 V | 0.031 Ω - Ensures full enhancement with standard 5 V microcontroller GPIOs, eliminating need for level-shifting drivers. |
| Qg | 18–27 nC - Low gate charge minimizes driver power and enables >1 MHz switching in high-efficiency SMPS designs. |
| TJ max | 175 °C - Supports operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating below 7.2 A at 70 °C ambient. |
| EAS | 11 mJ - Rated single-pulse avalanche energy allows safe clamping of inductive kickback in relay/motor drive circuits. |
| ID (continuous) | 8.5 A @ TA = 25 °C - Delivers usable current headroom for transient loads while maintaining SO-8 thermal limits. |
Pinout & Package
SO-8 (MS-012) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement; dimensions per JEDEC MS-012: 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) | Seven parallel drain terminals connected internally to the exposed copper pad - provides low-inductance, high-current path and primary thermal conduction path to PCB. |
| 6 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 0.5–2.4 Ω gate resistance - compatible with standard CMOS/TTL drivers and supports controlled turn-on/turn-off timing. |
| Source (S) | Source (S) | Terminals not assigned to pins; source connection made via internal die bonding to leadframe - requires external PCB trace routing to gate driver return and power ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® architecture | Enables lower RDS(on) and Qg vs. planar MOSFETs - improves power density and reduces switching losses in space-constrained converters. |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Extends usable lifetime in thermally aggressive environments (e.g., automotive under-hood, industrial PLC modules) without forced cooling. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS-compliant | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and Directive 2002/95/EC - supports environmentally regulated end equipment and simplifies global compliance documentation. |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio (5.3/3.4 nC) | Reduces Miller plateau duration and improves immunity to dv/dt-induced false turn-on in high-side configurations. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Driver |

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 IPP040N04L | 40 V VDS, 0.004 Ω RDS(on) @ 10 V, TO-252 package - lower RDS(on) but lower voltage rating and larger footprint. | Not suitable for 48 V systems; better for 12 V/24 V high-current battery-powered devices requiring minimal conduction loss. | Select only if system bus voltage ≤40 V and thermal design accommodates DPAK mounting. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C06NT1G | 60 V VDS, 0.025 Ω RDS(on) @ 10 V, SO-8 - slightly higher on-resistance and 22 nC Qg, same package and pinout. | Functionally interchangeable in existing SO-8 layouts; marginally lower efficiency at high frequency due to higher Qg. | Valid alternative when SI4850EY-T1 is unavailable; no PCB change required, but verify gate drive strength for 22 nC load. |
Compared with IPP040N04L and NTMFS4C06NT1G, the SI4850EY-T1 offers optimal balance of 60 V rating, 0.022 Ω RDS(on), and 18–27 nC Qg in SO-8 - making it preferred for 24–48 V industrial converters where voltage margin, thermal density, and switching speed are jointly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4850EY-T1 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4850EY-T1 supports 7.1 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C with proper PCB copper area (1" × 1" FR4). This value derives from thermal derating based on its RthJA = 75 °C/W and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. At this condition, conduction loss remains within safe limits for SO-8 package reliability. Always verify layout thermal performance using Vishay's AN826 recommended pads.
Does SI4850EY-T1 support logic-level gate drive from a 3.3 V microcontroller?
The SI4850EY-T1 is not fully enhanced at 3.3 V - its gate threshold voltage ranges from 1 V to 3 V, and RDS(on) is specified only down to 4.5 V VGS (0.031 Ω). At 3.3 V, the device operates in linear region with significantly higher on-resistance and power dissipation. For reliable switching, use ≥4.5 V gate drive or add a gate driver IC to ensure full enhancement of SI4850EY-T1.
What is the avalanche rating of SI4850EY-T1 and how is it tested?
The SI4850EY-T1 has a single-pulse avalanche energy rating of 11 mJ, measured under standardized test conditions (IAS = 15 A, VDD = 60 V, TJ = 25 °C). This rating validates its ability to absorb inductive energy without failure during unclamped inductive switching events. The parameter is guaranteed by design per Vishay's qualification process and is not subject to 100 % production testing.
Is SI4850EY-T1 pin-compatible with other SO-8 N-channel MOSFETs like the Si4800DY?
No - the SI4850EY-T1 uses a multi-drain SO-8 configuration (pins 1,2,3,4,5,7,8 = Drain; pin 6 = Gate), whereas the Si4800DY follows standard SO-8 pinout (pins 1–4 = Source, pin 5 = Drain, pin 6 = Gate, pins 7–8 = Drain). Layout reuse is not possible without redesign. Always verify pin mapping using the official Vishay Si4850EY-T1 datasheet (Doc #71146) before board revision.
What thermal resistance values apply to SI4850EY-T1 in typical PCB mounting?
For SI4850EY-T1 mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, the typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 36 °C/W for t ≤ 10 s and 75 °C/W at steady state. Its junction-to-foot (drain) resistance is 17 °C/W steady-state - critical for estimating die temperature when the drain pad is soldered to a large copper pour. These values assume adherence to Vishay's recommended SO-8 pad layout per Application Note AN826.
