Product details
Overview
SI7848DP-T1-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 40-V (D-S) TrenchFET® Power MOSFET in a PowerPAK® SO-8 package, featuring rDS(on) = 0.009 Ω at VGS = 10 V, ID = 17 A continuous, and optimized for PWM-driven synchronous buck converters and synchronous rectification. It delivers low thermal resistance and fast switching performance in DC/DC power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI7848DP-T1-E3 datasheet, SI7848DP-T1-E3 pinout, SI7848DP-T1-E3 application, or SI7848DP-T1-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40-V VDS rating, 0.009 Ω on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, 1.07-mm low-profile PowerPAK SO-8 footprint, 18.5–28 nC total gate charge, and suitability for high-efficiency, space-constrained power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low rDS(on) and high transconductance (gfs = 50 S), enabling efficient conduction and rapid voltage-controlled switching in high-frequency DC/DC topologies. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.0–3.0 V) supports standard logic-level and 5-V gate drivers.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = 0.75–1.1 V at IS = 2.8 A and exhibits trr = 30–60 ns, making it suitable for synchronous rectification where reverse recovery behavior directly impacts efficiency and EMI.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V and 24 V input DC/DC systems |
| rDS(on) | 0.009 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 14 A - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 15 A output current |
| ID (continuous) | 17 A @ TA = 25 °C - Supports high-current power stage designs on standard FR4 PCBs |
| Qg | 18.5–28 nC - Determines gate driver strength requirement and switching loss trade-off |
| RthJA | 55 °C/W (steady state) - Defines thermal derating above ambient; requires heatsinking above ~4 W dissipation |
| VGS(th) | 1.0–3.0 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller GPIO or dedicated gate drivers |
| trr | 30–60 ns - Critical for minimizing shoot-through risk and EMI in synchronous rectifier operation |

|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency step-down regulator for FPGA core voltage (e.g., 12 V → 0.85 V @ 20 A). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side or low-side switch controlled by PWM controller; operates in hard-switched mode at 500 kHz. Use Value: 0.009 Ω rDS(on) reduces I²R loss to ~2.5 W at 17 A, enabling >92 % efficiency without forced airflow. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in isolated 48 V → 12 V telecom DC/DC brick. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronously gated replacement for Schottky diode; driven by transformer-coupled or controller-synchronized signal. Use Value: Body diode trr ≤ 60 ns and low VSD minimize reverse recovery loss and voltage overshoot during commutation. |
| Point-of-Load Regulator | Motor Drive Half-Bridge |
Use Scenario: Compact 5 V → 3.3 V regulator on server motherboard delivering up to 15 A to memory subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in integrated POL module; thermally coupled to copper plane via exposed drain terminals. Use Value: RthJC = 1.8–2.2 °C/W allows direct thermal transfer to inner-layer ground planes, limiting ΔT to <35 °C at 10 W dissipation. | Use Scenario: 24 V BLDC motor control in industrial actuator with 10 A peak phase current. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in half-bridge leg; switched at ≤ 20 kHz with dead-time control. Use Value: Avalanche-rated IAS = 30 A ensures ruggedness against inductive kickback during fault conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF7842PBF | rDS(on) = 0.0075 Ω @ 10 V (lower), but RthJA = 62 °C/W (higher); same PowerSO-8 package | Better conduction loss, slightly worse thermal performance on 1"×1" board | Prefer IRF7842PBF when gate drive is ≥10 V and board area allows marginally higher junction temperature |
| Si7850DP-T1-E3 | 40 V VDS, rDS(on) = 0.0065 Ω @ 10 V, but ID = 20 A; identical PowerPAK SO-8 footprint and pinout | Higher current rating and lower on-resistance; drop-in upgrade path with no layout change | Choose Si7850DP-T1-E3 for new designs requiring headroom beyond 17 A or <0.007 Ω conduction loss |
Compared with IRF7842PBF and Si7850DP-T1-E3, the SI7848DP-T1-E3 offers balanced conduction and switching performance in a proven low-profile package, making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained 15–17 A DC/DC applications where 0.009 Ω rDS(on) meets efficiency targets without over-specifying.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI7848DP-T1-E3 at 70 °C ambient?
The SI7848DP-T1-E3 supports 13.7 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C under standard surface-mount conditions on a 1" × 1" FR4 board. This rating reflects thermal derating due to increased RthJA at elevated ambient temperatures and must be validated against actual PCB layout and copper area in the final design. The SI7848DP-T1-E3 datasheet specifies this value in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Is SI7848DP-T1-E3 suitable for 3.3 V gate drive applications?
Yes, the SI7848DP-T1-E3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 1.0–3.0 V, enabling turn-on with 3.3 V logic. However, its rDS(on) rises to 0.012 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 12 A, so full 10 V drive is recommended for minimum conduction loss. The SI7848DP-T1-E3 remains functional but less efficient at 3.3 V gate bias.
Does SI7848DP-T1-E3 have avalanche capability, and what is its rated current?
Yes, the SI7848DP-T1-E3 is rated for unclamped inductive switching with IAS = 30 A (L = 0.1 mH). This avalanche rating ensures robustness against transient voltage spikes in motor drive and converter applications where energy stored in parasitic inductance must be safely absorbed. The SI7848DP-T1-E3 specification sheet confirms this in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SI7848DP-T1-E3?
The SI7848DP-T1-E3 has a maximum junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance of 2.2 °C/W under steady-state conditions. This low RthJC enables efficient heat transfer from the silicon die to the PCB copper through the exposed drain terminals, supporting high-power operation when mounted on thermally enhanced layouts. The SI7848DP-T1-E3 datasheet lists this value in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table.
Can SI7848DP-T1-E3 replace Si7850DP-T1-E3 in an existing design?
No - while both share the PowerPAK SO-8 package and pinout, the SI7848DP-T1-E3 has higher rDS(on) (0.009 Ω vs. 0.0065 Ω) and lower ID rating (17 A vs. 20 A). Substituting SI7848DP-T1-E3 for Si7850DP-T1-E3 may cause thermal or efficiency degradation under full load. The SI7848DP-T1-E3 is not a drop-in replacement unless derated per its published specifications.
