Product details
Overview
SIHB22N60E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 21 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, featuring 0.18 Ω max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 86 nC total gate charge, and 367 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy. It serves as a high-voltage switching element in primary-side SMPS, PFC stages, and solar inverter DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHB22N60E-GE3 datasheet, SIHB22N60E-GE3 pinout, SIHB22N60E-GE3 application, or SIHB22N60E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VDS rating, low Qg/RDS(on) figure-of-merit, avalanche ruggedness, thermal resistance of 0.55 °C/W (junction-to-case), and suitability for hard-switched 50–100 kHz power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage switching with minimized conduction and switching losses. Its gate threshold voltage (2–4 V) ensures robust noise immunity while enabling standard 10 V gate drive compatibility. The integral body diode supports freewheeling in bridge configurations with 344 ns reverse recovery time and 5.3 μC Qrr.
The device operates within -55 to +150 °C junction temperature range and is rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to 367 mJ. Its dynamic parameters-including Ciss = 1920 pF, Coss = 90 pF, and Crss = 6 pF-are specified at VDS = 100 V and f = 1 MHz, supporting accurate snubber and gate driver design.
Key Specifications

| ID continuous @ TC = 100 °C | 13 A - defines usable current limit in thermally constrained server PSU main switches |
| VSD @ IS = 11 A | 1.2 V - sets forward conduction loss during synchronous rectification or body-diode conduction |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. Standard 3-pin configuration: Gate (G), Drain (D), Source (S). Drain tab is electrically connected to pin 2 (Drain) and thermally coupled to PCB copper area.

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP22NM60FD | 600 V, 22 A, RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω, Qg = 95 nC, D2PAK package | Higher Qg increases gate drive loss; slightly higher RDS(on) raises conduction loss by ~5.5 % | Acceptable where gate drive capability exceeds 2 A peak and thermal margin permits 0.01 Ω higher on-resistance |
| IXFH22N60P | 600 V, 22 A, RDS(on) = 0.195 Ω, Qg = 92 nC, TO-247 package | Larger TO-247 package requires more PCB area; higher RthJC (0.75 °C/W) limits power density | Preferred only when through-hole mounting or higher surge current (IDM = 88 A) is required over surface-mount constraints |
Compared with STP22NM60FD and IXFH22N60P, SIHB22N60E-GE3 offers the lowest Qg/RDS(on) FOM (15.5 Ω·nC), best thermal resistance (0.55 °C/W), and smallest footprint (D2PAK), making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 50–100 kHz power stages requiring repeatable avalanche robustness.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHB22N60E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHB22N60E-GE3 supports 13 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value reflects thermal derating from the 21 A rating at 25 °C and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit when mounted on an adequately sized heatsink or PCB copper area.
Does SIHB22N60E-GE3 have avalanche energy rating, and what is its value?
Yes, SIHB22N60E-GE3 is fully rated for unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 367 mJ, tested per JEDEC standard JESD24-1. This rating applies under conditions of VDD = 50 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 5.1 A. The SIHB22N60E-GE3 uses rugged silicon design to sustain this energy without parameter degradation.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHB22N60E-GE3, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHB22N60E-GE3 is specified from 2 V to 4 V at VDS = VGS and ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing noise immunity against spurious turn-on from dv/dt coupling. The SIHB22N60E-GE3 is not a logic-level device and requires ≥8 V gate drive for full RDS(on) specification compliance.
What package type is used for SIHB22N60E-GE3, and what are its thermal characteristics?
SIHB22N60E-GE3 uses the D2PAK (TO-263AB) surface-mount package with an exposed drain pad. Its maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) is 0.55 °C/W, measured from junction to the drain tab. This low value enables high-power operation-up to 227 W at TC = 25 °C-when the drain pad is soldered to ≥4 cm² of 2-oz copper with thermal vias, as recommended in Vishay AN826.
How does the body diode performance of SIHB22N60E-GE3 compare to standard recovery diodes in bridge applications?
The SIHB22N60E-GE3 features an integral body diode with VSD = 1.2 V at IS = 11 A and TJ = 25 °C, trr = 344 ns, and Qrr = 5.3 μC. While slower than dedicated SiC Schottky diodes, this performance is sufficient for hard-switched PFC and motor drive freewheeling where soft recovery is not required. The SIHB22N60E-GE3 body diode is not optimized for synchronous rectification but supports robust bidirectional current flow in half-bridge configurations.
