Product details
Overview
SIHB22N60EL-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 21 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.171 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 37 nC (typ), and 286 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy. It serves as a high-voltage switching device in primary-side SMPS and PFC stages of server/telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SIHB22N60EL-GE3 datasheet, SIHB22N60EL-GE3 pinout, SIHB22N60EL-GE3 application, or SIHB22N60EL-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VDS, low gate charge for hard-switched topologies, avalanche-rated ruggedness, and D2PAK thermal performance in high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage switching with reduced RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 3–5 V) ensures robust turn-on under standard 10 V gate drive while maintaining noise immunity.
The integrated body diode supports freewheeling in bridge configurations, with trr = 365 ns and Qrr = 5.8 μC enabling moderate-frequency synchronous rectification or PFC operation. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.55 °C/W enables high continuous power dissipation when mounted on copper-clad PCBs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - Supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % safety margin for telecom/server PFC and SMPS primary switches. |
| RDS(on) max @ 25 °C | 0.197 Ω - Limits conduction loss to ≤ 43 W at 11 A continuous drain current in thermally constrained layouts. |
| Qg max | 74 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement; enables <100 kHz hard-switched operation with ≤ 1 W driver loss. |
| EAS | 286 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events in motor drives or welder output stages without failure. |
| RthJC | 0.55 °C/W - Enables 227 W maximum power dissipation with ≤ 125 °C junction rise above 25 °C case temperature. |
| Ciss | 1690 pF - Sets Miller capacitance-related turn-off delay; requires careful gate resistor selection to balance speed and ringing. |
| trr | 365 ns - Defines minimum dead-time in half-bridge configurations to avoid shoot-through during body diode commutation. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction. Standard 3-pin configuration: Gate (G), Drain (D), Source (S). Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Drain (tab), Pin 3 = Source.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Control terminal | Receives gate drive signal; requires ≥10 V for full enhancement; input capacitance Ciss = 1690 pF affects driver sizing. |
| D | High-side power terminal | Connected to drain network (e.g., PFC boost inductor or SMPS transformer primary); electrically tied to exposed metal tab for heat sinking. |
| S | Reference and return path | Source node for gate drive reference; carries full load current; forms common node with driver ground in high-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reduced RDS(on) × Qg FOM | Enables higher efficiency in high-frequency switch-mode topologies by simultaneously lowering conduction and switching losses. |
| Avalanche energy rated (EAS = 286 mJ) | Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching applications such as welding inverters and motor drives. |
| Low Ciss (1690 pF) and Coss (95 pF) | Reduces capacitive loading on gate drivers and improves voltage transient response during fast dV/dt events (62 V/ns). |
| Lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization standard per doc# 99912. |
| Body diode with trr = 365 ns | Supports reliable freewheeling in non-synchronous rectified topologies without excessive reverse recovery loss or EMI. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW22NM60ND | 600 V, 22 A, RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω, Qg = 45 nC, D2PAK package | Higher Qg increases gate drive loss; slightly lower avalanche rating (250 mJ) | Acceptable where gate drive capability exceeds 1 W and avalanche stress is limited. |
| IPP60R190C7 | 600 V, 21 A, RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω, Qg = 32 nC, TO-220FP package | TO-220FP has higher RthJC (1.2 °C/W); no lead-free option in GE3 suffix | Preferred for cost-sensitive through-hole designs; not suitable for same thermal footprint as D2PAK. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHB22N60EL-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 supports 13 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D2PAK package and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature. The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 must be mounted on a PCB with adequate copper area or heatsink to maintain this rating.
Does SIHB22N60EL-GE3 have avalanche capability, and how is it rated?
Yes, the SIHB22N60EL-GE3 is fully avalanche-rated with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 286 mJ, tested per JEDEC standard JESD24-1. This rating applies under defined conditions: VDD = 50 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 4.5 A. The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 can safely absorb inductive energy without failure in properly designed circuits.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHB22N60EL-GE3, and why does it matter?
The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 3–5 V at TJ = 25 °C and ID = 250 μA. This ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drive while providing noise immunity against spurious turn-on from dv/dt coupling. The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 remains fully enhanced across its operating temperature range, supporting stable switching in high-noise environments.
How does the body diode performance of SIHB22N60EL-GE3 compare to standard rectifiers?
The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 features an integrated body diode with trr = 365 ns and Qrr = 5.8 μC at TJ = 25 °C, making it suitable for freewheeling in non-synchronous topologies. While slower than dedicated ultrafast diodes, its parameters are optimized for controlled recovery in PFC and SMPS applications. The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 body diode avoids hard reverse recovery spikes that cause EMI in poorly damped circuits.
Is SIHB22N60EL-GE3 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the SIHB22N60EL-GE3 is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering with a peak temperature of 300 °C for 10 seconds, per the Soldering Recommendations in the datasheet. The "-GE3" suffix explicitly denotes lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free construction compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The SIHB22N60EL-GE3 meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level MSL3 requirements.
