Product details
Overview
SI4894BDY-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 30-V TrenchFET® power MOSFET in SO-8 package, delivering RDS(on) = 0.011 Ω at VGS = 10 V and 12 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C. It serves as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or load switch in DC-DC converters and motor drivers.
For engineers reviewing the SI4894BDY-T1-E3 datasheet, SI4894BDY-T1-E3 pinout, SI4894BDY-T1-E3 application, or SI4894BDY-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low gate charge (Qg = 25.4 nC @ 10 V), 100% Rg tested gate resistance, and halogen-free Pb-free construction per IEC 61249-2-21.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in compact surface-mount applications. Its 30-V VDS rating, ±20-V VGS tolerance, and 1580-pF Ciss support stable operation in 24-V industrial bus and 12-V automotive subsystems.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = 0.76 V at IS = 2.3 A and trr = 25 ns, enabling efficient freewheeling in buck converters and H-bridge motor control without external diodes.

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) = 0.012 Ω @ 10 V; higher Ciss = 1700 pF; TO-252 package | Larger footprint and higher thermal resistance (RthJA = 62 °C/W) limit power density in space-constrained designs | Choose when board-level thermal mass supports DPAK mounting and higher gate drive energy is acceptable |
| DMN3028LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 0.013 Ω @ 10 V; dual N-channel in SO-8; no 100% Rg test | Shares same SO-8 footprint but lacks guaranteed gate resistance, increasing risk of inconsistent switching behavior | Prefer for dual-switch topologies where channel matching outweighs gate drive predictability |
Compared with IRF7470PBF and DMN3028LSD-13, SI4894BDY-T1-E3 offers superior gate drive consistency via 100% Rg testing and lowest RDS(on) in SO-8, making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-reliability single-channel switching.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI4894BDY-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI4894BDY-T1-E3 supports 7.1 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C under steady-state conditions on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. This rating reflects derating due to thermal resistance (RthJA = 90 °C/W max), and actual current capability improves with enhanced PCB copper area or forced airflow. The SI4894BDY-T1-E3 datasheet specifies this value in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does SI4894BDY-T1-E3 have a built-in body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, the SI4894BDY-T1-E3 integrates a parasitic body diode with VSD = 0.76 V typical at IS = 2.3 A and VGS = 0 V. This diode enables freewheeling current in inductive loads and is characterized in the datasheet's "Diode Forward Voltage" specification. Its reverse recovery time (trr) is 25 ns, supporting efficient operation in synchronous rectification circuits using the SI4894BDY-T1-E3.
Is SI4894BDY-T1-E3 suitable for 4.5-V gate drive applications?
Yes, the SI4894BDY-T1-E3 is fully specified for 4.5-V gate drive: RDS(on) = 0.016 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 9.8 A. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 1.0 V to 3.0 V, ensuring reliable turn-on with logic-level microcontrollers. This makes the SI4894BDY-T1-E3 appropriate for 5-V and 3.3-V control interfaces without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the total gate charge (Qg) of SI4894BDY-T1-E3 at 10-V VGS?
The SI4894BDY-T1-E3 has a total gate charge (Qg) of 25.4 nC (typical) and up to 38 nC (max) at VGS = 10 V, VDS = 15 V, and ID = 12 A. This value directly impacts gate driver sizing and switching loss; for example, driving Qg = 25.4 nC with a 1-Ω gate resistor yields ~25-V/ns dV/dt. The SI4894BDY-T1-E3 datasheet confirms this in the "Dynamic" section under "Total Gate Charge".
How does the thermal performance of SI4894BDY-T1-E3 compare between junction-to-ambient and junction-to-foot?
The SI4894BDY-T1-E3 has RthJA = 73 °C/W (typical) and RthJF = 19 °C/W (typical) in steady-state conditions. Junction-to-foot thermal resistance is significantly lower because the SO-8 drain leads and exposed pad conduct heat directly to PCB copper, bypassing the less efficient air-path convection of junction-to-ambient. This makes PCB layout with thermal vias under the drain pad critical to achieving the SI4894BDY-T1-E3's full current capability.
