Product details
Overview
SI7686DP-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 30-V TrenchFET® Power MOSFET in PowerPAK® SO-8 package, optimized for high-side synchronous rectifier operation in DC/DC converters. It delivers RDS(on) = 9.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, 35 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C), and 9.2 nC total gate charge - enabling high-efficiency, high-frequency switching in compact power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI7686DP-T1-E3 datasheet, SI7686DP-T1-E3 pinout, SI7686DP-T1-E3 application, or SI7686DP-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.8 °C/W), 100% Rg tested gate, and compatibility with standard SO-8 land patterns while delivering DPAK-level thermal performance.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching dynamics. Its optimized gate charge profile (Qg = 9.2 nC @ 5 V, Qgd = 2.8 nC) supports efficient high-side synchronous rectification with minimal shoot-through risk and reduced drive loss.
The PowerPAK® SO-8 package features an exposed drain pad for direct thermal conduction to the PCB, achieving RthJC = 2.8 °C/W and RthJA = 21 °C/W (t ≤ 10 s). Its pinout matches standard SO-8, but with extended drain terminals and a 1.07 mm profile - enabling drop-in replacement without layout changes in space-constrained designs.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7446DP-T1-E3 | RDS(on) = 11.5 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 10.5 nC; same PowerPAK® SO-8 package. | Slightly higher conduction loss; suited for cost-sensitive 12 V input converters where 35 A peak current is not required. | Select Si7446DP-T1-E3 when marginally higher RDS(on) is acceptable and lower gate charge is not critical. |
| IRF7470PBF | Standard SO-8 package; RDS(on) = 12.5 mΩ @ 10 V; RthJC = 16 °C/W - significantly higher thermal resistance. | Requires larger heatsinking or derating; unsuitable for high-density layouts where thermal performance is constrained. | Choose IRF7470PBF only if legacy SO-8 footprint reuse is mandatory and thermal headroom exceeds 40 °C/W. |
Compared with Si7446DP-T1-E3, SI7686DP-T1-E3 offers 17% lower RDS(on) and 12% lower Qg, directly improving efficiency in high-current, high-frequency applications; versus IRF7470PBF, it delivers 5× better thermal resistance and 1.3× higher current capability in the same board area.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI7686DP-T1-E3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SI7686DP-T1-E3 supports 35 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating is package-limited and remains unchanged from the 25 °C value due to the PowerPAK® SO-8's low thermal resistance and efficient heat spreading to the PCB. Derating begins above 70 °C per the current derating curve on page 5 of the datasheet.
Does SI7686DP-T1-E3 require a custom PCB land pattern, or is it compatible with standard SO-8 footprints?
SI7686DP-T1-E3 is fully compatible with standard SO-8 land patterns and can be mounted without layout changes. Its PowerPAK® SO-8 package uses the same pinout and outer dimensions, though optimal thermal performance requires extending the drain pad area per Application Note AN821. The device's exposed drain pad makes contact with the PCB copper, so no additional thermal vias or cutouts are mandatory for basic functionality.
What is the body diode reverse recovery time (trr) of SI7686DP-T1-E3, and how does it impact synchronous rectifier performance?
The SI7686DP-T1-E3 has a body diode reverse recovery time (trr) of 25–50 ns at IF = 2.6 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, and TJ = 25 °C. This fast recovery minimizes dead-time losses and reduces voltage spikes during commutation in synchronous rectifier applications, especially critical in high-frequency (>500 kHz) buck converters where slow recovery would increase switching loss and EMI.
Is SI7686DP-T1-E3 qualified for automotive applications, and what is its temperature range?
SI7686DP-T1-E3 is rated for -55 to +150 °C operating junction temperature and meets industrial reliability standards, but it is not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive ADAS ECUs, it may be used in non-safety-critical 12 V DC/DC sections where customer qualification is performed; however, Vishay offers AEC-Q101 variants like Si7686DP-T1-GE3 (halogen-free) for production automotive use.
How does the 100% Rg test on SI7686DP-T1-E3 benefit circuit design?
The 100% Rg test on SI7686DP-T1-E3 ensures gate resistance falls within 0.8–1.2 Ω for every unit, guaranteeing consistent gate drive timing, predictable turn-on/turn-off delays, and matched behavior in paralleled or multi-phase configurations. This eliminates timing skew and current imbalance risks that arise from untested gate resistance variation in standard MOSFETs, directly improving system reliability and efficiency in high-performance power stages.
