Product details
Overview
SI4890DY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET optimized for high-efficiency PWM switching in DC-DC converters and load switches. It features 30 V VDS, 0.012 Ω RDS(on) at 10 VGS, ±11 A continuous drain current, SO-8 package, and halogen-free construction per IEC 61249-2-21.
For engineers reviewing the SI4890DY-T1-E3 datasheet, SI4890DY-T1-E3 pinout, SI4890DY-T1-E3 application, or SI4890DY-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low gate charge (14.2 nC typ), fast switching (td(on) = 13 ns), thermal resistance (RthJA = 70 °C/W), and compatibility with 4.5 V logic-level drive in compact board space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve reduced gate charge and enhanced switching speed while maintaining low on-resistance. Its threshold voltage (0.8 V min) and transconductance (21 S typ) support stable turn-on under low-voltage control signals, and its body diode exhibits 0.71 V forward voltage at 2.3 A.
The device is characterized for operation across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, with guaranteed RDS(on) performance at both 10 V and 4.5 V gate drive, enabling use in synchronous rectification and high-frequency buck converter topologies where conduction and switching losses must be jointly minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage suitable for 24 V rail and automotive 12 V systems |
| RDS(on) @ 10 VGS | 0.012 Ω - Enables <132 mW conduction loss at 11 A, critical for thermally constrained PCBs |
| RDS(on) @ 4.5 VGS | 0.020 Ω - Supports direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting |
| Qg | 14.2 nC typ - Reduces gate driver power demand and enables >1 MHz switching in SMPS |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Internally connected to common drain terminal and exposed thermal pad - primary current path and heat sink interface |
| 8 | Gate (G) | Control input requiring low-charge drive; sensitive to ESD - requires series resistor for ringing suppression |
| S (pins not numbered separately) | Source (S) | Common source node formed by pins 1–3 and 5–7 in parallel configuration - defines reference for gate drive and current sensing |
Key Features

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) = 0.013 Ω @ 10 VGS; Qg = 22 nC - higher gate charge increases driver loss | Requires stronger gate driver for same switching frequency; less suitable for 4.5 V logic drive | Prefer SI4890DY-T1-E3 when gate drive voltage ≤5 V or switching frequency >500 kHz |
| DMN3025LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 0.025 Ω @ 4.5 VGS; SO-8 but dual-N configuration - single-channel functionality differs | Not a drop-in replacement due to dual-die layout and different pinout; requires PCB redesign | Select SI4890DY-T1-E3 for single-channel, low-RDS(on) 4.5 V drive in existing SO-8 layouts |
Compared with IRF7470PBF and DMN3025LSD-13, SI4890DY-T1-E3 delivers superior 4.5 V drive capability and lowest Qg/RDS(on) trade-off in standard SO-8, making it optimal for high-density, high-frequency DC-DC and load-switching applications where gate drive strength and thermal headroom are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI4890DY-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient?
The SI4890DY-T1-E3 supports ±9 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the SO-8 package with standard FR4 mounting. At TJ = 150 °C, the device maintains this current capability, provided PCB copper area and airflow meet Vishay's recommended thermal design guidelines for the SO-8 footprint.
Does SI4890DY-T1-E3 support 3.3 V logic-level gate drive?
The SI4890DY-T1-E3 is characterized down to 4.5 VGS, with RDS(on) = 0.020 Ω at ID = 9 A. While it may partially enhance at 3.3 V, Vishay does not guarantee performance below 4.5 V. For reliable 3.3 V operation, consider devices explicitly rated for 2.5 V or 3.3 V logic drive - the SI4890DY-T1-E3 should be used with ≥4.5 V gate drive to ensure full conduction and avoid thermal runaway.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for SI4890DY-T1-E3 in steady-state conditions?
The SI4890DY-T1-E3 has a maximum steady-state junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) of 70 °C/W when mounted on a standard FR4 PCB per Vishay's recommended layout. This value assumes no additional heatsinking and accounts for convection and conduction through the SO-8 leads and exposed drain paddle. For improved thermal performance, increase copper area under the drain pad and use multiple thermal vias to inner ground planes.
Is SI4890DY-T1-E3 suitable for synchronous rectification in a 30 V output DC-DC converter?
Yes, the SI4890DY-T1-E3 is well-suited for synchronous rectification in ≤30 V output converters. Its low RDS(on) (0.012 Ω @ 10 VGS), fast switching (tf = 17 ns), and integrated body diode (VSD = 0.71 V @ 2.3 A) minimize conduction and reverse recovery losses. Ensure gate drive timing avoids shoot-through, and verify layout minimizes source inductance to preserve switching fidelity in the SI4890DY-T1-E3.
What packaging and environmental compliance does SI4890DY-T1-E3 meet?
The SI4890DY-T1-E3 is supplied in tape-and-reel format (T1) and is lead (Pb)-free per JEDEC J-STD-609. It complies with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and is halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The "E3" suffix denotes lead-free plating and conforms to Vishay's green manufacturing standards - no exemptions applied, fully compliant for consumer, industrial, and automotive applications.
