Product details
Overview
SI8445DB-T2-E1 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel TrenchFET® MOSFET optimized for low-voltage load switching in space-constrained portable electronics, featuring -20 V VDS, 0.084 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -4.5 V, -9.8 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C), and ultra-thin 0.59 mm height in MICRO FOOT 2×2 bump package.
For engineers reviewing the SI8445DB-T2-E1 datasheet, SI8445DB-T2-E1 pinout, SI8445DB-T2-E1 application, or SI8445DB-T2-E1 equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (-0.35 to -0.85 V), body diode forward voltage (-0.7 to -1.2 V at -1 A), thermal resistance (RthJA = 55–70 °C/W), and lead-free reflow compatibility per J-STD-020C.
Technical Context
This P-channel MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance with minimal gate charge (Qg = 9.5 nC at VGS = -4.5 V), enabling fast switching in battery protection and load switch circuits. Its ultra-small 1.2 mm × 1.0 mm footprint and 0.59 mm profile support high-density PCB layouts in handheld devices.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode (VSD = -0.7 to -1.2 V, trr = 25–50 ns) and operates across -55 to +150 °C junction temperature range. Absolute maximum ratings include ±5 V VGS, -20 V VDS, and 11.4 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C - all validated under JEDEC-compliant reflow conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -20 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for battery-side high-side switching in 3.3 V/5 V systems. |
| RDS(on) | 0.084 Ω at VGS = -4.5 V - Enables <100 mW conduction loss at 9.8 A, critical for thermal management in sealed enclosures. |
| ID (continuous) | -9.8 A at TC = 25 °C - Supports high-current load switching without external heatsinking in compact battery packs. |
| VGS(th) | -0.35 to -0.85 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with low-voltage logic (e.g., 1.8 V GPIO), reducing need for level-shifting circuitry. |
| Qg | 9.5 nC at VGS = -4.5 V - Minimizes gate drive power and switching transition time in high-frequency PWM control. |
| RthJA | 55–70 °C/W - Defines thermal derating slope; requires ≥1.8 W ambient-rated layout for full current at 70 °C ambient. |
| trr | 25–50 ns - Limits reverse recovery losses during synchronous rectification or bidirectional current flow. |
Pinout & Package
MICRO FOOT 2×2 bump package (1.2 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.59 mm), Pb-free 95.5Sn/3.8Ag/0.7Cu solder bumps on 0.5 mm pitch; backside marked "8445" and date/lot code; non-solder-mask-defined copper pads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Top-left) | Source (S) | Primary current return path; electrically tied to package backside metal for thermal conduction and low-inductance grounding. |
| 2 (Top-right) | Source (S) | Dual-source configuration reduces RDS(on) and improves current sharing; must be connected to common source node. |
| 3 (Bottom-left) | Drain (D) | Main power output terminal; connects to load or battery cathode; thermally coupled to die via bump array. |
| 4 (Bottom-right) | Gate (G) | Control input requiring <±100 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD; must be driven with low-impedance source to minimize switching delay. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® architecture | Delivers 0.084 Ω RDS(on) at -4.5 V in sub-1 mm² footprint - enables higher efficiency than planar MOSFETs of comparable size. |
| Ultra-thin 0.59 mm profile | Permits integration into <1.0 mm Z-height assemblies (e.g., slim smartphones, wearables) without mechanical interference. |
| Low VGS(th) (-0.35 to -0.85 V) | Ensures full enhancement with 1.2–1.8 V control signals - eliminates need for gate boosters in single-supply battery systems. |
| Body diode trr = 25–50 ns | Reduces switching losses during freewheeling in load-switch and battery-protection configurations with rapid polarity reversal. |
| J-STD-020C reflow compliant | Supports standard 260 °C peak reflow without degradation - ensures manufacturability in high-volume SMT lines without special process tuning. |
Applications
| Battery Protection Circuit | Low-Voltage Load Switch |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Reverse-current blocking and overcurrent cutoff in Li-ion battery packs for tablets and power banks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch controlling battery cathode connection; responds within microseconds to protection IC fault signals.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si8445BB-T2-E1 | Same die, but MICRO FOOT 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm package (larger footprint, same 0.59 mm height); RDS(on) identical at -4.5 V. | Requires larger PCB area; better thermal performance (RthJA ≈ 45 °C/W) but incompatible with 1.2 mm × 1.0 mm layout. | Select when board space allows and lower thermal resistance is prioritized over miniaturization. |
| DMN2011UFG-7 | Diodes Inc. P-channel, -20 V, 0.075 Ω @ -4.5 V, 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.55 mm; different pinout (S-G-S-D vs D-S-S-G). | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; slightly lower RDS(on) but higher Qg (12.5 nC) increases gate drive loss. | Consider only if layout revision is feasible and marginal RDS(on) improvement justifies redesign effort. |
Compared with SI8445DB-T2-E1, Si8445BB-T2-E1 offers superior thermal performance in exchange for larger footprint, while DMN2011UFG-7 delivers marginally lower on-resistance but demands layout changes and increases gate drive burden - making SI8445DB-T2-E1 optimal for strict size-constrained designs where thermal margin is managed via layout.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SI8445DB-T2-E1 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SI8445DB-T2-E1 supports -7.9 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the MICRO FOOT package; maintaining adequate copper pour and airflow is essential to sustain this current without exceeding 150 °C junction temperature.
Does SI8445DB-T2-E1 have a specified body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr)?
Yes, the SI8445DB-T2-E1 has a body diode reverse recovery charge of 10–20 nC, measured at IF = -1 A, dI/dt = 100 A/µs, and TJ = 25 °C. This parameter directly impacts switching loss in bidirectional or freewheeling configurations and is critical for designing efficient battery protection circuits.
Can SI8445DB-T2-E1 be used with 1.8 V GPIO control without external level shifting?
Yes, SI8445DB-T2-E1 can be fully enhanced using 1.8 V GPIO control because its gate threshold voltage range is -0.35 to -0.85 V. At VGS = -1.8 V, RDS(on) is 0.120 Ω - sufficient for most load-switch applications up to ~5 A, eliminating the need for level-shifting circuitry.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to foot (RthJF) for SI8445DB-T2-E1?
The SI8445DB-T2-E1 has a typical junction-to-foot thermal resistance of 8.5 °C/W (maximum 11 °C/W), measured under steady-state conditions. This value enables direct thermal coupling to PCB ground planes or thermal vias, making it suitable for applications where heat must be extracted through the drain bump rather than the top surface.
Is SI8445DB-T2-E1 compatible with standard lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, SI8445DB-T2-E1 is qualified for IR/convection reflow up to 260 °C peak temperature per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020C. The MICRO FOOT package uses Pb-free 95.5Sn/3.8Ag/0.7Cu bumps and is rated for no manual or hand soldering - ensuring compatibility with automated SMT assembly lines.
