Product details
Overview
SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® Power MOSFET optimized for low-voltage synchronous rectification, featuring 16 V VDS, 3.3 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V, and 29 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C. It uses a lead-free and halogen-free PowerPAK® SO-8 package for high-efficiency DC/DC converters in server VRMs and notebook power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 datasheet, SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 pinout, SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 application, or SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.5 V gate threshold compatibility with low-voltage controllers, 54 nC total gate charge for fast switching, and 1.0 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling high-current operation without derating on standard PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve ultra-low on-resistance while maintaining robust gate oxide integrity at ±8 V VGS. Its 2.5 V rated gate drive enables direct interface with 3.3 V and 2.5 V logic-level controllers, eliminating level-shifting requirements in compact synchronous buck converters.
The device integrates a body diode with 0.75 V forward voltage at 4.5 A and exhibits 80 ns turn-off delay under 6 V VDD, 6 Ω load conditions - critical for minimizing dead-time losses in high-frequency (>500 kHz) power stages used in modern CPU/GPU VRMs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 16 V - supports input rails up to 12 V with margin for transient spikes in point-of-load converters |
| RDS(on) | 3.3 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V - enables <1 W conduction loss at 29 A, reducing thermal stress in dense power modules |
| ID (continuous) | 29 A at TA = 25 °C - delivers high current density in space-constrained 5.15 mm × 6.15 mm footprint |
| Qg | 54 nC typical - balances switching speed and gate driver power consumption in 300–1000 kHz applications |
| RthJC | 1.0 °C/W max - allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper, matching DPAK performance in SO-8 form factor |
| VGS(th) | 0.6–2.0 V - ensures reliable turn-on with 2.5 V logic controllers and stable operation across -55 to 150 °C junction range |
| Ciss | 7340 pF - defines Miller capacitance impact on gate drive loop stability in high-dV/dt environments |
Pinout & Package
SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 uses the PowerPAK® SO-8 package - a leadless, surface-mount variant of the SO-8 outline with exposed drain pads on the bottom side for enhanced thermal conduction. Dimensions: 5.15 mm × 6.15 mm × 1.04 mm height. Compatible with standard SO-8 land patterns but requires extended drain copper for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 8 | Drain (D) | Four parallel drain terminals connected to exposed bottom pad - forms primary thermal path to PCB and carries full load current |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input - low 1.1 Ω gate resistance minimizes ringing and simplifies RC snubber design |
| 5, 6, 7 | Source (S) | Three-source terminals tied to internal source metallization - reduces source inductance for improved switching efficiency |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® architecture | Enables 3.3 mΩ RDS(on) in SO-8 footprint - eliminates need for larger DPAK or TO-252 packages in 12 V input systems |
| PowerPAK® SO-8 package | Provides 1.0 °C/W RthJC - achieves DPAK-level thermal performance without layout redesign or board real estate penalty |
| 100 % Rg tested | Guarantees gate resistance ≤1.1 Ω - ensures consistent switching timing and prevents gate oscillation in paralleled configurations |
| Halogen-free and Pb-free | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 - supports lead-free reflow without baking or special handling |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 12.5 nC / 54 nC = 0.23 - improves hard-switching efficiency and reduces EMI generation in high-frequency VRMs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR872DP-T1-GE3 | 20 V VDS, 2.8 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V, same PowerPAK® SO-8 package | Higher voltage rating suits 15 V input systems; lower RDS(on) reduces conduction loss by ~15 % | Select when system input exceeds 13.5 V or when maximum efficiency at >30 A is required |
| IRF7478PBF | 20 V VDS, 4.0 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V, standard SO-8 package with leads | Lead-based package increases RthJA to 50 °C/W - requires larger PCB copper area for equivalent thermal performance | Choose only if legacy SO-8 land pattern must be reused without modification and thermal budget permits 15–20 °C higher TJ |
Compared with SiR872DP-T1-GE3, SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 offers tighter VGS(th) distribution (0.6–2.0 V vs. 1.0–2.5 V) for improved gate drive margin in low-voltage control schemes; versus IRF7478PBF, SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 delivers 30 % lower RthJC and eliminates lead-induced solder joint fatigue risk in high-reliability deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 supports 23 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value accounts for thermal derating due to reduced heat dissipation capability at elevated ambient temperatures and assumes proper PCB copper layout per Vishay Application Note AN821. The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 maintains this rating without external heatsinking when mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board with recommended drain pad area.
Does SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 require a gate resistor for stable operation in high-frequency switching applications?
While the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 has a guaranteed gate resistance of ≤1.1 Ω, a small external gate resistor (typically 1–5 Ω) is recommended to dampen potential ringing caused by PCB trace inductance and gate driver output impedance. This is especially critical above 500 kHz where the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3's 54 nC Qg and 945 pF Crss interact with layout parasitics. The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 datasheet provides gate drive design guidelines in Figure 12 of Document 73165.
Can SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 be used as a direct replacement for standard SO-8 MOSFETs on existing PCBs?
Yes, the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 uses the same footprint and pinout as standard SO-8 packages, allowing drop-in replacement on legacy boards. However, its PowerPAK® SO-8 construction places the drain terminals on the bottom side, so the PCB must provide adequate copper area under the device for thermal conduction. The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 will outperform standard SO-8 MOSFETs thermally but requires verification of solder reflow profile per Vishay document 73257 for lead-free assembly.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 at DC conditions?
At DC operation, the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 is limited by its maximum power dissipation of 1.9 W at TA = 70 °C, corresponding to approximately 14 A at VDS = 1.5 V or 6 A at VDS = 5 V, as shown in the SOA curve on page 4 of Document 73165. This limitation arises from thermal saturation rather than avalanche or secondary breakdown. The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 must be operated within this boundary to prevent junction temperature exceeding 150 °C under steady-state conditions.
How does the body diode performance of SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 affect synchronous rectifier efficiency?
The SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 body diode has a forward voltage of 0.75–1.2 V at 4.5 A, which directly impacts conduction loss during dead-time intervals in synchronous rectification. Its 80–120 ns reverse recovery time (trr) minimizes stored charge loss, making the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 particularly effective in high-frequency, low-duty-cycle applications like multiphase VRMs. For optimal efficiency, gate timing must ensure the SI7862ADP-T1-GE3 turns on before the body diode conducts significantly.
