Product details
Overview
SIHA22N60AE-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 8 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.156 Ω (typ. at VGS = 10 V), Qg = 48 nC (typ.), and avalanche-rated EAS = 204 mJ - optimized for high-efficiency server power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHA22N60AE-E3 datasheet, SIHA22N60AE-E3 pinout, SIHA22N60AE-E3 application, or SIHA22N60AE-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), ultra-low gate charge, and robust unclamped inductive switching capability under TJ ≤ 150 °C operation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar V-groove silicon technology with optimized cell layout to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its Ciss = 1451 pF (typ.) and Coss = 73 pF (typ.) support fast, controlled turn-on/turn-off transitions while maintaining dV/dt immunity up to 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C.
The integrated body diode delivers trr = 319 ns (typ.) and Qrr = 4.9 μC (typ.) at IF = 11 A, enabling reliable operation in hard-switched and resonant topologies without external diode supplementation in moderate-frequency PFC and SMPS designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified rails with ≥20 % safety margin in telecom/server PSUs |
| RDS(on) typ. | 0.156 Ω at VGS = 10 V - enables <1.9 W conduction loss at 11 A DC, critical for thermal management in compact PFC stages |
| Qg max | 96 nC - defines minimum gate drive energy required; low value reduces driver IC stress and improves efficiency above 100 kHz |
| EAS | 204 mJ - rated single-pulse avalanche energy ensures reliability during transient overvoltage events in inductive load switching |
| tr/tf | 33/21 ns (typ.) - enables clean edge control in ZVS/ZCS circuits with minimal switching loss penalty |
| TJ range | –55 to +150 °C - qualified for industrial ambient environments and high-power-density enclosed systems |
Pinout & Package
Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package: 3-terminal through-hole outline with drain-connected tab, optimized for low-inductance PCB mounting and enhanced thermal transfer via case-to-heatsink interface (RthJC = 3.8 °C/W max).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path output / heatsink connection | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from chassis unless system ground-referenced; primary thermal path |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return | Low-impedance return path for load current; referenced by gate driver; impacts common-source inductance in high-dI/dt switching |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance CMOS-compatible input; requires <96 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±30 V rating) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 14.9 Ω·nC - directly reduces total power loss in hard-switched converters operating at 65–300 kHz |
| Avalanche energy rating | 204 mJ (single-pulse) - eliminates need for external clamping in flyback or LLC primary-side switching with inductive kick |
| Ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio | 25/96 ≈ 26 % - minimizes Miller plateau duration, improving controllability during dV/dt transitions |
| Body diode Qrr | 4.9 μC (typ.) - enables zero-voltage switching in asymmetric half-bridge PFC without reverse recovery-induced voltage spikes |
Applications
| Server Power Supply | Telecom Rectifier |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP20NM60ND | RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω (typ.), Qg = 60 nC, no UIS rating | Lacks avalanche qualification; requires external snubbers in inductive loads | Lower cost where surge immunity is managed externally and efficiency margin is relaxed |
| IXFH20N60P | RDS(on) = 0.20 Ω (typ.), Qg = 72 nC, TO-247 package | Larger footprint and higher RthJC (0.5 °C/W) demands larger heatsink | Preferred when higher peak current (IDM = 80 A) and long-term reliability outweigh board space constraints |
Compared with STP20NM60ND and IXFH20N60P, SIHA22N60AE-E3 offers the lowest RDS(on) × Qg FOM and integrated avalanche ruggedness in a compact TO-220 FULLPAK, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 600 V switching where transient robustness is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHA22N60AE-E3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHA22N60AE-E3 has a continuous drain current rating of 5 A at TC = 100 °C, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package and ensures safe operation within RthJC = 3.8 °C/W. At TC = 25 °C, the rating increases to 8 A. Designers must verify junction temperature rise using actual PCB layout and heatsink conditions before finalizing thermal design for SIHA22N60AE-E3.
Does SIHA22N60AE-E3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHA22N60AE-E3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) is specified from 2 V to 4 V, but full enhancement requires VGS = 10 V to achieve RDS(on) = 0.156 Ω (typ.). It is incompatible with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs without level-shifting or gate driver amplification. The SIHA22N60AE-E3 datasheet explicitly states test conditions at VGS = 10 V for all key parameters, confirming standard gate drive requirements.
Is SIHA22N60AE-E3 halogen-free?
No - SIHA22N60AE-E3 is lead (Pb)-free but not halogen-free. The halogen-free version is designated SIHA22N60AE-GE3, as shown in the Ordering Information section. Both variants share identical electrical and thermal specifications, differing only in material composition compliance. SIHA22N60AE-E3 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU but does not satisfy IEC 61249-2-21 halogen-free requirements.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the body diode in SIHA22N60AE-E3?
The typical reverse recovery charge Qrr of the integral body diode in SIHA22N60AE-E3 is 4.9 μC, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 11 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. This value is confirmed in the "Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics" table. The low Qrr contributes to reduced switching loss and EMI in hard-commutated topologies, and is a key differentiator versus older 600 V MOSFETs with Qrr > 10 μC.
Can SIHA22N60AE-E3 be used in synchronous rectification applications?
No - SIHA22N60AE-E3 is not recommended for synchronous rectification due to its relatively high RDS(on) (0.156 Ω) and non-optimized body diode characteristics for bidirectional conduction. Synchronous rectifiers require very low RDS(on), fast reverse recovery, and often dual-die configurations. The SIHA22N60AE-E3 datasheet positions it for primary-side switching in PFC and SMPS, not secondary-side rectification. For SR use, Vishay's SiR626DP or similar trench-Si devices are better suited.
