Product details
Overview
SI7686DP-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a N-channel 30-V (D-S) 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 (TJ = 150 °C), and 9.2 nC total gate charge - enabling high-efficiency, high-frequency switching in compact power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI7686DP-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI7686DP-T1-GE3 pinout, SI7686DP-T1-GE3 application, or SI7686DP-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.8 °C/W), halogen-free/lead-free compliance, 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 gate charge profile (Qg = 9.2 nC @ 5 V, Qgd = 2.8 nC) supports efficient high-side synchronous rectification with minimal turn-off delay (td(off) = 23–35 ns @ VGEN = 10 V) and low reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 15–30 nC).
The device is thermally engineered for direct board-mount heat transfer: the exposed drain pad provides a low-impedance junction-to-case path (RthJC = 2.8 °C/W), and its 1.07 mm profile enables space-constrained designs. Absolute maximum ratings include VDS = 30 V, VGS = ±20 V, and ID = 35 A (TC = 25 °C), with avalanche energy rating EAS = 5 mJ.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 24 V input rail applications with margin |
| RDS(on) | 9.5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 32 A in high-current POL stages |
| ID (continuous) | 35 A @ TC = 25 °C - Package-limited current handling suitable for 50 W+ buck converters |
| Qg | 9.2 nC @ VGS = 5 V - Low gate drive energy supports 1–2 MHz switching without excessive driver loss |
| RthJC | 2.8 °C/W (typ.) - Enables >24 W dissipation with 70 °C temperature rise to heatsink or PCB copper |
| VGS(th) | 1–3 V - Ensures reliable enhancement-mode turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level gate drivers |
| Qrr | 15–30 nC - Low body diode recovery charge reduces shoot-through risk and EMI in synchronous rectifiers |
Pinout & Package
SI7686DP-T1-GE3 uses the leadless PowerPAK® SO-8 package (6.15 mm × 5.15 mm × 1.07 mm), with identical footprint and pinout to standard SO-8 but featuring an exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction. The package is RoHS-compliant, lead-free, and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Source (S) | Four parallel source terminals reduce source inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt switching |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Exposed copper drain pad (bottom side) serves as primary thermal and current path to PCB copper |
| 3 (top side) | Gate (G) | Single gate terminal located between source pins - optimized for low-inductance gate loop layout |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7446DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 11.5 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 10.5 nC; same PowerPAK SO-8 package | Slightly higher conduction loss; better suited for cost-sensitive 20–25 A applications | Choose Si7446DP-T1-GE3 when 10–15 % higher RDS(on) is acceptable for lower unit cost in mid-power designs. |
| IRF7470PBF | RDS(on) = 10.5 mΩ @ 10 V; SO-8 package (leaded); RthJC = 16 °C/W | Higher thermal resistance limits power density; requires larger PCB copper or heatsink | Choose IRF7470PBF only if legacy SO-8 footprint reuse is mandatory and thermal budget allows ≥40 °C/W system RthJA. |
Compared with Si7446DP-T1-GE3, SI7686DP-T1-GE3 offers lower on-resistance and gate charge for higher efficiency at 30–35 A loads; compared with IRF7470PBF, it delivers 5.7× lower junction-to-case thermal resistance, enabling 2.5× higher power density in the same PCB area.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI7686DP-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for SI7686DP-T1-GE3 is 35 A at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating is package-limited and assumes adequate PCB copper area for thermal dissipation. At TA = 70 °C, the derated current drops to 14.3 A due to higher junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
Does SI7686DP-T1-GE3 support 3.3 V gate drive in high-side synchronous rectifier configurations?
Yes, SI7686DP-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) of 1–3 V and delivers RDS(on) = 14 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, making it compatible with 3.3 V gate drivers when used with bootstrap or charge-pump gate drive circuits that elevate the gate voltage above the source. For robust turn-on, a minimum 4.5 V effective gate-source voltage is recommended.
How does the PowerPAK® SO-8 package of SI7686DP-T1-GE3 compare thermally to a standard SO-8 MOSFET?
SI7686DP-T1-GE3's PowerPAK® SO-8 package achieves RthJC = 2.8 °C/W (typ.), which is equivalent to a DPAK package and 5.7× better than a standard SO-8 (RthJC ≈ 16 °C/W). This allows SI7686DP-T1-GE3 to dissipate over 24 W with only a 70 °C temperature rise to the PCB, whereas a standard SO-8 would exceed thermal limits at ~4 W under identical conditions.
Is SI7686DP-T1-GE3 qualified for automotive applications?
SI7686DP-T1-GE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While it operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature and meets halogen-free/Pb-free requirements, Vishay does not list it in their automotive-qualified portfolio. For automotive ADAS or infotainment power supplies, designers should verify qualification status directly with Vishay or select an explicitly AEC-Q101 rated alternative such as Si7446DP-T1-GE3 (AEC-Q101 qualified).
What is the body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of SI7686DP-T1-GE3, and why does it matter in synchronous rectifiers?
SI7686DP-T1-GE3 has a body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of 15–30 nC. In synchronous rectifiers, low Qrr minimizes voltage spikes and switching losses during the dead-time interval when the body diode conducts before the synchronous FET turns on. This directly improves efficiency and reduces EMI in high-frequency buck and LLC converters.
