Product details
Overview
SIHA24N65EF-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 24 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package, featuring ultra-low gate charge (81 nC typ.), fast body diode (trr = 151 ns typ.), and low RDS(on) of 0.13 Ω at 10 V VGS. It is engineered for high-efficiency, high-frequency switching in telecom power supplies and solar inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHA24N65EF-E3 datasheet, SIHA24N65EF-E3 pinout, SIHA24N65EF-E3 application, or SIHA24N65EF-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 691 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy rating, 70 V/ns dV/dt capability, and optimized FOM (RDS(on) × Qg = 10.5), critical for ZVS and phase-shifted bridge topologies.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs proprietary silicon process and cell layout to reduce reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 0.9 μC typ.) and output capacitance (Coss = 128 pF typ.), enabling lower switching losses in hard- and soft-switching converters. Its fast intrinsic body diode eliminates need for external anti-parallel diodes in bidirectional topologies like 3-level inverters.
The device integrates a robust avalanche-rated structure (EAS = 691 mJ) and operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. Gate threshold voltage (2–4 V) and low input capacitance (Ciss = 2774 pF) support stable drive with standard gate drivers while minimizing Miller-induced shoot-through risk.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 650 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 450 V in 3-phase rectified systems with 1.4× safety margin |
| RDS(on) max @ 25 °C | 0.156 Ω - enables <1.8 W conduction loss at 12 A continuous drain current |
| Qg max | 122 nC - reduces gate drive power requirement and allows use of lower-current driver ICs |
| trr typ. | 151 ns - minimizes dead-time penalty and commutation loss in resonant LLC and LCC converters |
| EAS | 691 mJ - withstands unclamped inductive switching events without failure in welder or charger applications |
| Coss | 128 pF - lowers capacitive turn-off loss and improves efficiency in high-frequency (>100 kHz) SMPS designs |
| dV/dt rating | 70 V/ns - ensures reliable operation under fast transient conditions in motor drives and PV inverters |
Pinout & Package
SIHA24N65EF-E3 uses a Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package (JEDEC TO-220AB variant with reduced lead thickness and improved thermal interface). The package features isolated drain tab for direct heatsink mounting and enhanced thermal resistance (RthJC = 3.2 °C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate | Controls channel conduction; requires 10 V drive for full RDS(on) specification; low Ciss (2774 pF) eases drive design |
| D | Drain | Main high-side switching node; electrically connected to metal tab; rated for 650 V blocking and 65 A pulsed current |
| S | Source | Power return path and gate reference; internal connection to source metallization; supports 24 A continuous body diode conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast body diode | trr = 151 ns typ., Qrr = 0.9 μC typ. - enables zero-voltage switching in phase-shifted bridges without external diode |
| Low figure-of-merit | RDS(on) × Qg = 10.5 Ω·nC - delivers superior switching-conduction trade-off vs. standard 650 V MOSFETs |
| Avalanche rated | EAS = 691 mJ - eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching (e.g., welding, battery charging) |
| Low Ciss | 2774 pF - reduces gate drive power and improves noise immunity in high-density power modules |
| Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK | RthJC = 3.2 °C/W - provides 25% lower junction-to-case thermal resistance than standard TO-220 |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW65N60DM6 | 600 V rating, higher RDS(on) (0.125 Ω), no specified trr or Qrr data; D²PAK package | Limited to ≤400 V DC bus; unsuitable for 3-level inverter body-diode conduction | Choose only if system voltage <420 V and body diode performance is non-critical |
| IXFH30N65X2 | 650 V, 30 A, RDS(on) = 0.115 Ω, Qg = 102 nC, trr = 120 ns - superior speed but higher cost and larger TO-247 package | Better for >25 A continuous loads; requires larger PCB area and heatsink due to TO-247 footprint | Select when higher current headroom and faster recovery are required, and board space permits TO-247 |
Compared with STW65N60DM6 and IXFH30N65X2, SIHA24N65EF-E3 offers optimal balance of 650 V rating, fast body diode, compact TO-220 FULLPAK footprint, and cost-effective performance for 15–25 A telecom and solar applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHA24N65EF-E3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for SIHA24N65EF-E3 is 6 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 the 150 °C maximum junction temperature. SIHA24N65EF-E3 maintains this rating under sustained conduction with adequate heatsinking.
Does SIHA24N65EF-E3 have a specified reverse recovery time (trr) for its body diode?
Yes, SIHA24N65EF-E3 has a specified reverse recovery time of 151 ns (typical) and 288 ns (maximum) at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 12 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 400 V. This trr value is measured per JEDEC standard and directly supports design of ZVS circuits. SIHA24N65EF-E3's fast body diode is a core feature of the E series technology.
Is SIHA24N65EF-E3 suitable for use in phase-shifted full-bridge converters?
Yes, SIHA24N65EF-E3 is explicitly recommended for phase-shifted bridge (ZVS) topologies per its Applications section. Its low Qrr (0.9 μC typ.), fast trr (151 ns typ.), and 70 V/ns dV/dt rating enable reliable zero-voltage switching with minimal dead-time penalty. SIHA24N65EF-E3's EAS rating also handles residual inductive energy during transition.
What is the gate-source threshold voltage range for SIHA24N65EF-E3?
The gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHA24N65EF-E3 is 2 V minimum to 4 V maximum at VDS = VGS and ID = 250 μA. This range ensures compatibility with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing noise margin against spurious turn-on. SIHA24N65EF-E3 is not a logic-level device and requires ≥8 V VGS for reliable enhancement-mode operation.
How does the Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package improve thermal performance over standard TO-220?
The Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package of SIHA24N65EF-E3 achieves a maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of 3.2 °C/W, ~25% lower than standard TO-220 packages. This results from optimized internal die attach, thinner leads reducing thermal path length, and full-metal backside contact. SIHA24N65EF-E3 benefits from more efficient heat transfer to heatsinks in high-power density designs.
