Product details
Overview
SIE820DF-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 20-V TrenchFET® Power MOSFET in a PolarPAK® package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.0035 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V, 136 A silicon-limited continuous drain current, and ultra-low Qgd for minimized switching losses in high-frequency synchronous rectification.
For engineers reviewing the SIE820DF-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIE820DF-T1-GE3 pinout, SIE820DF-T1-GE3 application, or SIE820DF-T1-GE3 equivalent, this device is selected for VRM and DC/DC converter designs requiring double-sided cooling, low gate charge (43 nC at 4.5 V), and halogen-free, RoHS-compliant packaging with top-exposed drain thermal path.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses Vishay's proprietary TrenchFET® process with Extremely Low Qgd WFET technology to reduce Miller capacitance and suppress shoot-through risk via low Qgd/Qgs ratio. Its PolarPAK® package integrates a leadframe-based encapsulation where the top surface connects directly to pins 1, 5, 6, and 10 - all tied to the drain - enabling efficient double-sided thermal management.
The device operates with VGS(th) = 0.6–2.0 V, supports 100% Rg and UIS testing, and delivers 45 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy. Thermal resistance is specified as RthJC(Drain) = 1.0 °C/W (typ), confirming suitability for high-power density board-level thermal design.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 20 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage compatible with 12 V input bus systems and point-of-load converters. |
| RDS(on) | 0.0035 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 60 A, critical for high-efficiency VRM output stages. |
| ID (Silicon Limit) | 136 A - Supports high-current synchronous rectification without derating due to die capability. |
| Qg | 43 nC at VGS = 4.5 V - Reduces gate drive power and enables >1 MHz switching in compact DC/DC designs. |
| RthJC (Drain) | 1.0 °C/W (typ) - Confirms effective thermal coupling to heatsink or PCB copper through top-exposed drain terminals. |
| VGS(th) | 0.6–2.0 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V gate drivers in logic-level applications. |
| Ciss | 4300 pF - Defines input capacitance affecting gate driver sizing and EMI filter design in hard-switched topologies. |
Pinout & Package
PolarPAK® is a leadless, top-exposed drain package with 10 terminals. The top metal surface is electrically connected to pins 1, 5, 6, and 10 - all drain nodes - enabling dual-side thermal interface. Bottom-side soldering provides mechanical and electrical connection to source and gate terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 5, 6, 10 | Drain (D) | Top-exposed drain terminals - primary thermal path and high-current return; must be soldered to large copper pour or heatsink. |
| 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 | Source (S) | Source connections distributed across six bottom-side pins - minimize source inductance and improve current sharing in parallel configurations. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single dedicated gate terminal - located adjacent to source pins to reduce gate loop inductance and suppress ringing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low Qgd/Qgs ratio | Reduces Miller-induced turn-on risk during high-dV/dt commutation, improving reliability in synchronous buck converters. |
| Top-exposed PolarPAK® drain | Enables double-sided cooling - thermal resistance to case (drain) is 1.0 °C/W, allowing >100 W dissipation with minimal ΔT. |
| 100% Rg and UIS tested | Ensures gate robustness against transient overvoltage and ruggedness under unclamped inductive switching stress. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS compliant | Fulfills IEC 61249-2-21 and EU Directive 2002/95/EC requirements for environmentally constrained industrial and computing applications. |
| TrenchFET® silicon technology | Delivers lower RDS(on) × area than planar MOSFETs - achieves 0.0035 Ω in compact 5 mm × 6 mm footprint. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 20-V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLHS6342TRPBF | RDS(on) = 0.0037 Ω @ 4.5 V; SO-8 package; no top-exposed drain; RthJC = 3.5 °C/W. | Lacks double-sided cooling capability; limited to single-side PCB thermal management. | Select when board space constraints favor SO-8 and thermal load ≤ 30 W. |
| SIS840DN-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.0028 Ω @ 4.5 V; same PolarPAK® package; higher Qg = 58 nC; 30 V rating. | Higher voltage rating adds margin but increases gate drive energy; better for 24 V systems. | Select when 30 V VDS headroom is required or lower RDS(on) justifies higher Qg. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIE820DF-T1-GE3?
The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 has a silicon-limited continuous drain current of 136 A at TJ = 150 °C, but its package-limited rating is 50 A at TC = 25 °C. This dual rating reflects the device's ability to handle high current when thermally managed via its top-exposed drain, while remaining within safe PCB-level limits under standard mounting conditions. Always refer to the thermal derating curves in the SIE820DF-T1-GE3 datasheet for ambient or case temperature adjustments.
Does SIE820DF-T1-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
Yes, the SIE820DF-T1-GE3 supports logic-level gate drive with a gate-threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranging from 0.6 V to 2.0 V, ensuring full enhancement using standard 3.3 V or 5 V controllers. At VGS = 4.5 V, it achieves its specified RDS(on) of 0.0035 Ω, making it ideal for modern low-voltage gate driver ICs used in VRM and POL applications. The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 does not require 10 V gate bias for optimal performance.
How is thermal management implemented in the SIE820DF-T1-GE3 PolarPAK® package?
The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 uses a PolarPAK® package with top-exposed drain terminals (pins 1, 5, 6, 10) that serve as the primary thermal path - achieving RthJC(Drain) = 1.0 °C/W (typ). This allows heat to be extracted from both top and bottom surfaces, enabling double-sided cooling via heatsink contact on top and PCB copper on bottom. The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 requires no exposed die and maintains consistent layout regardless of die size, simplifying thermal design across variants.
Is SIE820DF-T1-GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification in high-frequency converters?
Yes, the SIE820DF-T1-GE3 is optimized for synchronous rectification in high-frequency converters, with 43 nC total gate charge at VGS = 4.5 V and extremely low Qgd to minimize Miller-induced switching delay and shoot-through risk. Its 101 ns body diode reverse recovery time and 100 nC Qrr further reduce commutation loss. The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 is widely deployed in >500 kHz VRMs and USB PD chargers where fast, efficient low-side switching is critical.
What halogen-free and environmental compliance certifications apply to SIE820DF-T1-GE3?
The SIE820DF-T1-GE3 is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21 and fully compliant with the RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC. The "-GE3" suffix explicitly denotes lead-free and halogen-free construction, verified through material declarations and manufacturing process controls by Vishay Siliconix. No brominated flame retardants or chlorine-based compounds are used in the molding compound or terminations of the SIE820DF-T1-GE3.
