Product details
Overview
SI5913DC-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel 20 V (D-S) MOSFET integrated with a monolithic Schottky diode in a ChipFET® package, delivering RDS(on) = 0.084 Ω at VGS = −10 V, Qg = 4 nC (typ.), and VF = 0.5 V (at 1 A), optimized for asynchronous rectification in compact DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SI5913DC-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI5913DC-T1-GE3 pinout, SI5913DC-T1-GE3 application, or SI5913DC-T1-GE3 equivalent, this device offers verified performance in high-efficiency, space-constrained power conversion where low gate charge, integrated body diode replacement, and halogen-free compliance are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
This device integrates a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET and a Schottky diode on a single die within a 1206-8 ChipFET® package. Its dual-function structure enables synchronous-like efficiency in asynchronous topologies without requiring external diode placement or timing control circuitry.
The MOSFET operates with VGS(th) = −0.6 to −1.5 V, supports continuous drain current up to −4 A at TC = 25 °C, and features Ciss = 330 pF and Coss = 80 pF - parameters directly enabling fast switching with minimal drive loss in buck converter freewheeling paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −20 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V input rails and transient margin in industrial DC/DC designs. |
| RDS(on) | 0.084 Ω at VGS = −10 V - Enables ≤0.3 W conduction loss at 3.7 A, reducing thermal load in unheatsinked PCB layouts. |
| Qg | 4 nC at VGS = −4.5 V - Low gate charge allows efficient drive from low-current controllers, minimizing driver stage complexity. |
| VF (Schottky) | 0.5 V at IF = 1 A - Reduces forward drop by ~0.4 V versus standard MOSFET body diodes, improving light-load efficiency. |
| TJ Range | −55 to +150 °C - Supports operation in extended-temperature environments such as automotive under-hood or industrial motor drives. |
| RthJA | 74 °C/W (max) - Defines thermal derating envelope for surface-mount use on 1" × 1" FR4, guiding heatsinking decisions. |
| ID (cont.) | −3.7 A at TA = 25 °C - Package-limited continuous current rating suitable for sub-10 W point-of-load converters. |
Pinout & Package
SI5913DC-T1-GE3 uses the 1206-8 ChipFET® package - a leadless, surface-mount, thermally enhanced footprint measuring 3.05 mm × 1.90 mm × 1.05 mm (L × W × H), with exposed drain pads on the bottom for direct thermal coupling to PCB copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 (Drain) | MOSFET Drain / Schottky Cathode | Common high-current path for both MOSFET conduction and Schottky forward current; electrically and thermally tied to exposed copper pad. |
| 5, 6 (Source) | MOSFET Source / Schottky Anode | Return node for MOSFET channel and Schottky anode; forms low-inductance loop with drain when placed adjacent on PCB. |
| 7, 8 (Gate) | MOSFET Gate Control | High-impedance input controlling channel turn-on; requires < ±12 V rating and benefits from local gate resistor for EMI control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| LITTLE FOOT® Plus integration | Combines MOSFET + Schottky in one 1206-8 footprint - eliminates discrete diode placement, reduces BOM count, and shrinks layout area by ≥30% vs. dual-component solution. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS-compliant | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and Directive 2002/95/EC - ensures environmental compliance for global industrial and computing shipments without material declaration overhead. |
| Low VF Schottky (0.5 V @ 1 A) | Reduces freewheeling conduction loss by >50% versus typical MOSFET body diode (VSD ≈ 1.0 V), directly improving light-load efficiency in buck converters. |
| Fast trr = 23–35 ns | Minimizes reverse recovery energy loss during hard-switching transitions, lowering EMI generation and reducing snubber requirements. |
| Exposed drain thermal pad | Enables direct thermal path to inner-layer copper planes - achieves RthJF = 32 °C/W (typ.), supporting higher power density than standard SO-8 equivalents. |
Applications
| HDD Power Supply | Industrial DC/DC Converter |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET + Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7851DP-T1-GE3 | Higher RDS(on) = 0.12 Ω at −10 V; same 1206-8 package; lacks Schottky integration - requires external diode. | Requires additional board area and layout effort for discrete Schottky; suited only when integrated Schottky is not required. | Select if lower gate charge (Qg = 3.5 nC) is prioritized over integrated diode functionality and thermal performance. |
| DMN2011UFD-7 | N-channel 20 V MOSFET (RDS(on) = 0.011 Ω); no integrated diode; SOT-23-6 package; requires high-side gate driver. | Not functionally equivalent - cannot replace SI5913DC-T1-GE3 without topology change (e.g., synchronous buck redesign). | Consider only for new designs where N-channel topology and driver availability justify re-architecting the power stage. |
Compared with Si7851DP-T1-GE3 and DMN2011UFD-7, SI5913DC-T1-GE3 uniquely combines P-channel logic-level drive, integrated Schottky, and ChipFET® thermal performance - making it the only drop-in option for space-constrained asynchronous rectifiers needing zero external diode components.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI5913DC-T1-GE3 at ambient temperature?
The SI5913DC-T1-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of −3.7 A at TA = 25 °C on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. This value is package-limited and decreases to −2.9 A at TA = 70 °C due to thermal derating. The rating reflects real-world surface-mount conditions, not ideal heatsinked operation.
Does SI5913DC-T1-GE3 include a Schottky diode, and what are its key electrical parameters?
Yes, SI5913DC-T1-GE3 integrates a monolithic Schottky diode rated for 20 V reverse voltage (VKA) and 2 A average forward current (IF). Its forward voltage is 0.5 V at 1 A and 0.43 V at 125 °C, with leakage current ≤0.10 mA at 20 V and 25 °C - all confirmed in the Vishay datasheet revision B.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SI5913DC-T1-GE3, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The SI5913DC-T1-GE3 has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranging from −0.6 V to −1.5 V at ID = −250 µA. This logic-level P-channel characteristic allows full enhancement with −4.5 V gate drive, enabling direct interface with standard 3.3 V/5 V microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting circuitry.
Can SI5913DC-T1-GE3 be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
No - SI5913DC-T1-GE3 is designed for asynchronous rectification. Its integrated Schottky diode is not controllable and cannot be actively turned off like a synchronous MOSFET. For synchronous operation, a discrete N-channel or P-channel MOSFET without integrated diode (e.g., Si7851DP-T1-GE3) must be used with precise gate timing control.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RthJA) for SI5913DC-T1-GE3, and how is it measured?
The maximum RthJA for SI5913DC-T1-GE3 is 74 °C/W for the MOSFET section and 95 °C/W for the Schottky section, both measured under t ≤ 5 s pulse conditions on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. These values define worst-case thermal limits for transient power dissipation and guide PCB copper area allocation.
