Product details
Overview
SIHA6N80AE-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an 800 V, 5 A N-channel power MOSFET in Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.826 Ω (typ) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 15 nC (typ), and EAS = 20.3 mJ - optimized for high-voltage switching in telecom PFC stages and industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the SIHA6N80AE-GE3 datasheet, SIHA6N80AE-GE3 pinout, SIHA6N80AE-GE3 application, or SIHA6N80AE-GE3 equivalent, this device delivers low conduction loss with ultra-low gate charge and avalanche-rated ruggedness - critical for reliable operation in 400–800 V DC-link SMPS and induction heating inverters.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar vertical DMOS technology with integrated Zener-protected gate, enabling robust ±30 V gate drive tolerance and 100 V/ns dv/dt immunity at TJ = 125 °C. Its low Ciss (422 pF) and Coss (24 pF) reduce switching losses in hard-switched topologies.
The device supports unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to 20.3 mJ and features a body diode with trr = 285 ns (typ) and Qrr = 1.7 μC - suitable for synchronous rectification and freewheeling in high-frequency PFC and welding power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 800 V - supports 640 V DC-link operation with 25 % margin for voltage transients in telecom and industrial SMPS |
| RDS(on) (typ) | 0.826 Ω at VGS = 10 V, ID = 2 A - enables <1.7 W conduction loss at 5 A continuous drain current |
| Qg (typ) | 15 nC - reduces gate drive power and allows use of lower-cost 1–2 W gate drivers in 100–300 kHz designs |
| EAS | 20.3 mJ - ensures single-pulse avalanche survivability during overvoltage events without external snubbers |
| Ciss | 422 pF - lowers Miller-induced turn-on risk and improves noise immunity in high-dv/dt environments |
| tr/tf | 10/20 ns (typ) - supports fast switching with minimal overlap loss in hard-switched converters |
| TJ range | –55 to +150 °C - qualified for under-hood industrial and server PSU applications with thermal cycling stress |
Pinout & Package
Package: Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK (lead-free/halogen-free); dimensions per Vishay Doc. #62649: D = 8.3–8.7 mm, d1 = 14.7–15.3 mm, L = 13.4–13.8 mm, mounting torque = 0.6 N·m.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main high-side power terminal | Internally connected to metal tab - requires electrically isolated heatsink mounting; handles full 800 V blocking and 5 A conduction |
| Source (S) | Power return and reference node | Low-inductance source path for gate drive loop; ties to PCB ground plane to minimize switching noise coupling |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Zener-protected MOSFET gate; accepts 10 V logic-level drive; sensitive to ESD - requires series gate resistor (Rg = 9.1 Ω typical) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg) | 12.4 Ω·nC (0.826 Ω × 15 nC) - balances conduction and switching loss for optimal efficiency in 100–250 kHz PFC stages |
| Avalanche energy rating | 20.3 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching (e.g., welder primary side) |
| Integrated Zener ESD protection | ±30 V gate rating - prevents gate oxide failure during handling and board assembly without external TVS |
| Low effective output capacitance | Coss(tr) = 92 pF - reduces turn-off energy loss and improves light-load efficiency in resonant LLC topologies |
| Body diode performance | trr = 285 ns, Qrr = 1.7 μC - minimizes reverse recovery loss and EMI in freewheeling paths of motor drives |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP8NK80ZFP | RDS(on) = 0.95 Ω (max), Qg = 24 nC, TO-220FP package (shorter leads, no FULLPAK thermal enhancement) | Higher conduction loss and slower switching; less suitable for high-frequency PFC above 150 kHz | Lower cost alternative where thermal margin is available and switching frequency ≤ 120 kHz |
| IXTH6N80L2 | RDS(on) = 0.85 Ω (typ), Qg = 18 nC, TO-247 package with higher RthJC (0.8 °C/W vs. 4.2 °C/W) | Superior RDS(on) but larger footprint and inferior thermal resistance - requires larger heatsink | Better for high-current, low-frequency (<80 kHz) applications where board space permits TO-247 mounting |
Compared with STP8NK80ZFP and IXTH6N80L2, SIHA6N80AE-GE3 offers the best balance of low gate charge, enhanced thermal performance via FULLPAK construction, and proven avalanche ruggedness - making it optimal for compact, high-efficiency 200–300 kHz industrial and telecom power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHA6N80AE-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHA6N80AE-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 3.2 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating from its 5 A rating at TC = 25 °C, with a linear derating factor of 0.24 W/°C. Designers must ensure heatsink design maintains case temperature ≤ 100 °C for sustained 3.2 A operation.
Does SIHA6N80AE-GE3 include integrated ESD protection on the gate terminal?
Yes, the SIHA6N80AE-GE3 integrates a Zener diode for gate-source ESD protection, enabling a ±30 V gate-source voltage rating. This eliminates the need for external gate protection components in most applications and enhances robustness during PCB assembly and system integration - confirmed in the Features section and Absolute Maximum Ratings table of Vishay Document #92298.
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in SIHA6N80AE-GE3?
The typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the integral body diode in SIHA6N80AE-GE3 is 285 ns, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = IS = 3 A, di/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. This value is specified in the "Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics" section and supports efficient freewheeling in high-frequency motor drives and SMPS.
Can SIHA6N80AE-GE3 be used in avalanche-mode operation, and what is its rated single-pulse energy?
Yes, SIHA6N80AE-GE3 is avalanche energy rated with a single-pulse unclamped inductive switching (UIS) capability of 20.3 mJ, tested under VDD = 140 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 1.2 A. This rating is explicitly stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and enables safe operation during transient overvoltage events without external snubbers.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHA6N80AE-GE3?
The maximum junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance (RthJC) for SIHA6N80AE-GE3 is 4.2 °C/W, as listed in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table. This low value is enabled by the Thin-Lead TO-220 FULLPAK package's enhanced thermal path from die to metal tab, supporting higher power density than standard TO-220 variants.
