Product details
Overview
SIHA22N60EL-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 21 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package, featuring 0.171 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 74 nC total gate charge, and 286 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-designed for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies in telecom and server applications.
For engineers reviewing the SIHA22N60EL-GE3 datasheet, SIHA22N60EL-GE3 pinout, SIHA22N60EL-GE3 application, or SIHA22N60EL-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), robust UIS rating, and optimized dynamic parameters for hard-switched PFC and DC-DC stages requiring reliable 600 V blocking capability.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized cell layout to reduce conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its 1690 pF input capacitance (Ciss) and low 5 pF reverse transfer capacitance (Crss) support fast, controllable turn-on/turn-off transitions under 480 V bus conditions.
The integrated body diode exhibits 365 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 5.8 μC Qrr at 11 A, enabling stable operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC without external diode snubbing in many designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified to ~565 V DC bus with margin for transients |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.171 Ω at VGS = 10 V - enables ≤3.9 W conduction loss at 11 A RMS in PFC boost stage |
| Qg max | 74 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.5 A peak for 50 ns rise time) |
| EAS | 286 mJ - ensures ruggedness against unclamped inductive switching events in motor drives or SMPS |
| Ciss | 1690 pF - sets Miller effect magnitude and influences VGS stability during dV/dt transitions |
| trr | 365 ns - defines minimum dead-time needed to avoid shoot-through in half-bridge topologies |
| RthJC | 3.6 °C/W - allows 35 W dissipation with ≤126 °C junction rise above 25 °C case temperature |
Pinout & Package
Package: Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK (lead-free and halogen-free); thermally enhanced plastic package with exposed drain tab on underside for direct heatsink mounting; 3-pin configuration with G–D–S pin order viewed from front (tab side down).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts 10 V logic-level drive; 15 nC gate-source charge requires low-impedance driver path |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to heatsink via exposed metal tab; carries full load current and withstands 600 V transient stress |
| S (Source) | Reference and return path | Common node for gate drive return and current sensing; low-inductance layout critical for EMI control |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reduced RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 12.7 Ω·nC - lowers combined conduction + switching loss in high-frequency (>100 kHz) PFC designs |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 286 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching |
| Low Crss (5 pF) | Minimizes Miller-induced gate voltage spikes during high dV/dt switching, improving noise immunity |
| Integrated body diode | 1.2 V forward drop at 11 A - enables synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters without external diode |
| Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK | Lower thermal resistance (RthJC = 3.6 °C/W) vs. standard TO-220 - improves power density in space-constrained PSUs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP22NM60ND | 600 V, 22 A, RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω, Qg = 65 nC, TO-220FP package | Slightly lower Qg but higher RDS(on); no specified EAS rating in datasheet | Preferred where gate drive loss dominates over conduction loss; verify avalanche capability per design stress test |
| IXTH24N60L2 | 600 V, 24 A, RDS(on) = 0.16 Ω, Qg = 85 nC, TO-247AC package | Higher current rating and superior thermal performance (RthJC = 0.5 °C/W), but larger footprint and cost | Selected when >35 W continuous dissipation or extended lifetime at TJ > 135 °C is required |
Compared with STP22NM60ND and IXTH24N60L2, SIHA22N60EL-GE3 delivers balanced trade-offs: lower RDS(on) than ST's part with certified UIS ruggedness, and smaller TO-220 FULLPAK footprint versus IXYS's TO-247-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 1–3 kW industrial and telecom power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHA22N60EL-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHA22N60EL-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 13 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package and ensures safe operation within its 3.6 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. The SIHA22N60EL-GE3 must be mounted to an adequately sized heatsink to maintain this rating under sustained load.
Does SIHA22N60EL-GE3 have a fully rated avalanche energy specification?
Yes, SIHA22N60EL-GE3 is explicitly rated for single-pulse unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 286 mJ under defined test conditions (VDD = 50 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 4.5 A). This certified avalanche capability is documented in the Vishay datasheet S17-1308-Rev. C and confirms robustness for inductive load switching without external protection circuits.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHA22N60EL-GE3?
The gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHA22N60EL-GE3 is specified from 3 V to 5 V at TJ = 25 °C and ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while preventing unintended conduction due to noise. The SIHA22N60EL-GE3 is not a logic-level device; it requires ≥10 V VGS to achieve its rated RDS(on).
How does the body diode performance of SIHA22N60EL-GE3 compare to standard FRDs?
The SIHA22N60EL-GE3 body diode has a forward voltage of 1.2 V at 11 A and 25 °C, with trr = 365 ns and Qrr = 5.8 μC. While slower and higher-VF than dedicated fast recovery diodes (FRDs), its parameters are optimized for synchronous operation in resonant converters-not for standalone rectification. For SIHA22N60EL-GE3 applications, this diode supports ZVS in LLC topologies without external devices.
Is SIHA22N60EL-GE3 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, SIHA22N60EL-GE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, qualified for lead-free reflow soldering with a peak temperature of 300 °C for 10 seconds, as stated in the "Soldering recommendations" section of the datasheet. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements and is suitable for standard Pb-free assembly lines without special handling.
