Product details
Overview
SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for -20 V drain-source voltage, with RDS(on) of 9.8 mΩ at VGS = -4.5 V and continuous drain current of -12.5 A at TC = 25 °C. It serves as a high-efficiency load or battery switch in compact DC power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 pinout, SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 application, or SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low gate charge (63 nC at VGS = -4.5 V), robust avalanche rating (20 mJ), and TSSOP-8 package optimized for thermally constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with controlled Qg/Qgd ratio (63 nC total gate charge, 25.3 nC gate-drain charge). Its negative threshold voltage (-0.4 V to -1.0 V) enables reliable enhancement-mode operation with logic-level gate drive down to -1.8 V.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = -0.75 V at -10 A and trr = 45 ns, supporting synchronous rectification and reverse-current protection in bidirectional power paths. Thermal design is supported by RthJC = 46 °C/W (max) and RthJA = 65 °C/W (typ) on standard FR4.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -20 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 20 V rail systems and battery-switching applications |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = -4.5 V | 9.8 mΩ - Enables ≤100 mW conduction loss at 10 A, critical for thermal budget in space-constrained loads |
| Qg @ VGS = -4.5 V | 63 nC - Low gate drive energy supports efficient PWM control up to 500 kHz without excessive driver loss |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | -12.5 A - Sustains full-rated load current with heatsinked case mounting |
| EAS | 20 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy events common in hot-swap and load-dump transients |
| VGS(th) | -0.4 to -1.0 V - Ensures turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic outputs driving inverted gate signals |
| RthJA (typ) | 65 °C/W - Predictable junction-to-ambient rise on 1" × 1" FR4 allows accurate thermal margining without custom layout |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-8 package (JEDEC MO-153), 3.0 mm × 6.4 mm footprint, 1.0 mm max height, lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 8 | Source (S) | Four parallel source terminals reduce package inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt switching |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with Rg = 0.8–7.2 Ω - compatible with standard gate drivers without external series resistance |
| 5, 6, 7 | Drain (D) | Three parallel drain terminals provide low-inductance connection to high-current output nodes and heat-spreading copper |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100 % Rg tested | Ensures consistent gate drive timing and eliminates batch-to-batch variation in switching speed |
| 100 % UIS tested | Guarantees single-pulse avalanche robustness per JEDEC JESD22-A115, critical for unclamped inductive switching |
| TrenchFET® architecture | Delivers 25 % lower RDS(on) vs. planar P-channel MOSFETs at same die size, improving power density |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 0.40 (25.3/63) - minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations |
| Body diode trr | 45 ns (typ) - enables efficient freewheeling in synchronous buck or OR-ing applications without external Schottky |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7157DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 11.5 mΩ @ -4.5 V; Qg = 52 nC; TSSOP-8 | Lower gate charge improves high-frequency efficiency but higher on-resistance increases conduction loss at >8 A | Prefer for PWM-driven loads >200 kHz where switching loss dominates; avoid for high-current DC loads |
| IRLML6344TRPBF | RDS(on) = 38 mΩ @ -4.5 V; SOT-23-3; ID = -3.8 A | Smaller package and lower cost, but 3.9× higher RDS(on) and no UIS rating | Acceptable for low-current (<4 A), non-critical consumer applications; not suitable for industrial or automotive use |
Compared with SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3, Si7157DP-T1-GE3 trades higher conduction loss for faster switching, while IRLML6344TRPBF sacrifices ruggedness and current capacity for footprint reduction - making SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 the optimal balance for thermally demanding, medium-current industrial load switching.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 supports -10 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TSSOP-8 package under sustained power dissipation; actual usable current depends on PCB copper area and ambient airflow. The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 maintains safe operation within its 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit when properly heatsinked.
Does SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 have a guaranteed avalanche rating?
Yes, the SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 is 100 % tested for Unclamped Inductive Switching (UIS) per JEDEC JESD22-A115, with a rated single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 20 mJ. This specification is verified during production test and ensures robustness against inductive transients in load-switching applications. The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 datasheet confirms this rating applies across the full operating temperature range.
Can SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes, the SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) of -0.4 V to -1.0 V and delivers RDS(on) = 22.7 mΩ at VGS = -1.8 V, enabling functional turn-on with 3.3 V logic level (inverted drive). However, for minimal conduction loss, a -4.5 V or -5 V gate drive is recommended to achieve 9.8 mΩ RDS(on). The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 operates reliably in partial-enhancement mode with 3.3 V control signals.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3?
The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 has a typical junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance (RthJC) of 46 °C/W and a maximum of 56 °C/W, measured under steady-state conditions. This value is critical for heatsink design when mounting the TSSOP-8 package to a metal plane or external thermal pad. The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 datasheet specifies these parameters with test conditions aligned to JESD51-14 standards.
Is SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, conforming to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization per document 99912. The "-GE3" suffix explicitly denotes compliance with both requirements. The SI6423ADQ-T1-GE3 packaging and wafer fabrication processes meet IPC/JEDEC J-STD-609B Class 1 definitions for halogen content.
