Product details
Overview
SI7123DN-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel enhancement-mode TrenchFET® Power MOSFET in PowerPAK® 1212-8 package, rated for -20 V VDS, 0.0106 Ω RDS(on) at -4.5 V VGS, and -16.0 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C. It serves as a high-efficiency load switch in portable battery-powered systems requiring ultra-low on-resistance and compact footprint.
For engineers reviewing the SI7123DN-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 pinout, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 application, or SI7123DN-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -1.8 V gate threshold compatibility with low-voltage logic, 1.07 mm profile for space-constrained PCBs, halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction, and thermal performance optimized for FR4 board mounting without external heatsinking.
Technical Context
This device uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low RDS(on) at gate voltages as low as -1.8 V, enabling direct drive from 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V microcontrollers. Its PowerPAK 1212-8 package features an exposed drain pad on the bottom side for low RthJC (1.9 °C/W typical) and minimal thermal resistance to the PCB.
The MOSFET exhibits fast switching characteristics: 25 ns turn-on delay, 88 ns rise time, 82 ns turn-off delay, and 28 ns fall time under standard test conditions. Body diode parameters include VSD = -0.76 V at -13 A and trr = 48 ns, supporting synchronous rectification and reverse recovery–sensitive topologies.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7133DP-T1-GE3 | P-channel, -20 V, 0.0075 Ω RDS(on) @ -4.5 V, but in larger PowerPAK® SO-8 (5 mm × 6 mm) package. | Higher current handling (-25 A), but 2.5× larger footprint and 1.1 mm height-unsuitable for ultra-thin designs. | Select Si7133DP-T1-GE3 only when higher current (>16 A) and lower RDS(on) outweigh PCB area constraints. |
| DMN2011LFG-7 | P-channel, -20 V, 0.012 Ω RDS(on) @ -4.5 V, in 2 mm × 2 mm WDFN package with 0.65 mm height. | Smaller footprint and lower profile, but RthJA = 100 °C/W limits continuous current to ~9 A on FR4. | Choose DMN2011LFG-7 when board space is tighter than 3.3 mm × 3.3 mm and thermal budget permits higher junction rise. |
Compared with Si7133DP-T1-GE3 and DMN2011LFG-7, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 uniquely balances 3.3 mm × 3.3 mm footprint, 1.07 mm height, and -16 A capability with 0.0106 Ω on-resistance-making it optimal for mid-power portable applications where space, thermal, and drive-voltage constraints intersect.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI7123DN-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI7123DN-T1-GE3 supports -12.8 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. This derating reflects thermal limits imposed by RthJA = 65 °C/W and TJ(max) = 150 °C. At higher board copper area or with internal ground planes, current capability improves-verified in Vishay AN822 thermal characterization data for PowerPAK 1212-8.
Does SI7123DN-T1-GE3 support 1.8 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 is specified for full enhancement at VGS = -1.8 V, with RDS(on) = 0.0189 Ω at -5 A. Its VGS(th) range of -0.4 V to -1.0 V ensures guaranteed turn-on with 1.8 V microcontroller outputs across temperature and process corners, eliminating need for gate drivers in most portable applications.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SI7123DN-T1-GE3?
The SI7123DN-T1-GE3 has a typical RthJC of 1.9 °C/W and maximum of 2.4 °C/W, measured from junction to the exposed drain pad on the bottom of the PowerPAK 1212-8 package. This low value enables efficient heat transfer directly into the PCB copper, making it suitable for thermally demanding portable applications without external heatsinks.
Can SI7123DN-T1-GE3 be used in reverse-polarity protection circuits?
Yes, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 is commonly used in reverse-polarity protection due to its -20 V VDS rating and P-channel configuration. When placed in the high-side position, it blocks reverse voltage while introducing only 160 mV drop at 15 A (based on 0.0106 Ω RDS(on)), minimizing power loss and heat generation compared to diode-based solutions.
Is SI7123DN-T1-GE3 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes, SI7123DN-T1-GE3 is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C for 20–40 seconds. Vishay specifies a maximum ramp-down rate of 6 °C/s and prohibits manual soldering with irons due to its leadless PowerPAK 1212-8 construction-reflow is the only recommended assembly method.
