Product details
Overview
SI6423DQ-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel TrenchFET® MOSFET optimized for low-voltage load switching in space-constrained applications, featuring RDS(on) = 8.5 mΩ at VGS = −4.5 V, −12 V VDS rating, and −9.5 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C. It operates as a high-side switch in portable power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SI6423DQ-T1-E3 datasheet, SI6423DQ-T1-E3 pinout, SI6423DQ-T1-E3 application, or SI6423DQ-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (−0.4 to −0.8 V), thermal resistance (RthJA = 83 °C/W max for 10 s), source-drain diode forward voltage (−0.58 to −1.1 V), and TSSOP-8 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with minimal gate charge (Qg = 74–110 nC). Its negative gate threshold enables direct logic-level control from 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 4.5 V microcontroller outputs without level-shifting circuitry.
The TSSOP-8 package integrates four source pins (2, 3, 6, 7) tied common for low-inductance, high-current return paths, while drain terminals occupy pins 1, 5, and 8 - enabling efficient heat spreading across the PCB copper plane. The body diode supports synchronous rectification and reverse-polarity protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −12 V: Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V rail protection and battery reverse-polarity circuits. |
| RDS(on) | 0.0085 Ω at VGS = −4.5 V: Enables <10 mΩ on-state resistance for <100 mW conduction loss at 9.5 A. |
| ID (continuous) | −9.5 A at TA = 25 °C: Supports high-current load switching in compact DC/DC modules and USB PD power paths. |
| VGS(th) | −0.4 to −0.8 V: Ensures reliable turn-on with 1.8 V logic I/O, eliminating need for external gate drivers. |
| Qg | 74–110 nC: Low total gate charge enables fast switching (td(on) = 50–75 ns) with minimal drive power. |
| RthJA | 83 °C/W (10 s): Thermal performance validated on 1″ × 1″ FR4 board, supporting sustained operation up to 1.05 W. |
| VSD | −0.58 to −1.1 V at IS = −1.3 A: Low forward voltage of integrated body diode reduces reverse-current losses in OR-ing 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si6421DQ-T1-E3 | RDS(on) = 12.5 mΩ at VGS = −4.5 V; otherwise identical pinout, package, and thermal specs. | Higher conduction loss makes it suitable only for ≤6 A loads or thermally relaxed layouts. | Select when lower cost is prioritized over minimal voltage drop in 5 V systems. |
| DMN2053LFG-7 | −20 V VDS, 11.5 mΩ RDS(on) at −4.5 V, SOT-23-6 package; higher RthJA (150 °C/W). | Limited to ≤3 A continuous due to thermal constraints; not suitable for high-current USB PD or SSD rails. | Choose only for ultra-low-cost, low-power sensor nodes where board space is more critical than efficiency. |
Compared with SI6423DQ-T1-E3, Si6421DQ-T1-E3 trades 3.5 mΩ higher on-resistance for lower unit cost, while DMN2053LFG-7 sacrifices 2× thermal performance and 3× current capability to fit a 3× smaller footprint - making SI6423DQ-T1-E3 optimal for balanced power density in portable 5–12 V systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI6423DQ-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI6423DQ-T1-E3 supports −8.0 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table under "Continuous Drain Current (TJ = 150 °C)" with derating applied. This value assumes proper PCB copper area for thermal dissipation per the 1″ × 1″ FR4 test condition. At higher ambient temperatures or reduced copper, current must be further derated using the provided RthJA and power dissipation curves.
Does SI6423DQ-T1-E3 require a gate resistor for typical 1.8 V GPIO switching?
No, SI6423DQ-T1-E3 does not require an external gate resistor when driven directly by a 1.8 V microcontroller GPIO, because its gate threshold voltage (−0.4 to −0.8 V) ensures full enhancement and its gate capacitance (Qgs = 9.0 nC, Qgd = 19 nC) is well within typical MCU drive capability. However, a small series resistor (≤10 Ω) may be added to dampen ringing in high-di/dt applications without impacting switching speed.
Can SI6423DQ-T1-E3 be used in a dual-MOSFET configuration like Si6436DQ?
No, SI6423DQ-T1-E3 is a single-die P-channel MOSFET in TSSOP-8, with drain pins 1/5/8 and source pins 2/3/6/7 configured for one device. Unlike Si6436DQ (dual-die), it lacks independent gate and source terminals for two separate switches. Attempting to repurpose pins violates the internal die layout and thermal design - use Si6436DQ or Si6422DQ for dual-switch applications.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for SI6423DQ-T1-E3 at DC operation?
At DC operation, the SI6423DQ-T1-E3 SOA is limited by its maximum power dissipation of 1.05 W (steady-state, TA = 25 °C) and junction temperature cap of 150 °C. For example, at VDS = −6 V, the maximum sustainable ID is approximately −1.75 A - derived from PD = VDS × ID. The published SOA curve confirms this boundary is defined by RDS(on)-limited conduction, not avalanche or thermal runaway.
Is SI6423DQ-T1-E3 compliant with automotive AEC-Q101 qualification?
No, SI6423DQ-T1-E3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is rated for industrial temperature range (−55 to +150 °C) and intended for commercial and portable consumer applications. For automotive-grade equivalents, consider Vishay's AEC-Q101-qualified SQ-series P-channel MOSFETs such as SQ2322EHV-T1_GE3, which share similar RDS(on) and package but undergo extended stress testing per automotive standards.
