Product details
Overview
SIHB4N80E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an 800 V, 4.3 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, featuring RDS(on) = 1.1 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, Qg = 16 nC (typ), and EAS = 56 mJ - designed for high-voltage switching in telecom power supplies and solar PV inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHB4N80E-GE3 datasheet, SIHB4N80E-GE3 pinout, SIHB4N80E-GE3 application, or SIHB4N80E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness, low gate charge for ZVS/ZCS topologies, thermal resistance RthJC = 1.8 °C/W, and body diode recovery performance (trr = 248 ns, Qrr = 1.4 μC).
Technical Context
This device employs a planar high-voltage trench-gated structure optimized for reduced conduction and switching losses in hard-switched SMPS and PFC stages. Its 800 V VDS rating supports 400 V DC bus designs with 2× safety margin, while ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio (6/16 nC) improves voltage-dependent switching control.
The integral body diode is rated for IS = 4.4 A continuous and exhibits controlled reverse recovery (dI/dt = 100 A/μs, IRRM = 9.2 A) - enabling reliable operation in bidirectional energy transfer circuits such as synchronous rectification and LLC resonant converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 800 V - supports 400 V DC-link applications with 2× overvoltage margin for transient suppression |
| RDS(on) typ @ 10 V | 1.1 Ω - enables <4.7 W conduction loss at 2 A, suitable for medium-power PFC and auxiliary supplies |
| Qg max | 32 nC - allows efficient gate drive with low-power controllers (e.g., UCC28070, ICE2PCS01) |
| EAS | 56 mJ - provides unclamped inductive switching robustness without external snubbers in motor drives |
| trr | 248 ns (typ) - minimizes commutation loss and EMI in high-frequency flyback and forward converters |
| RthJC | 1.8 °C/W - enables 69 W power dissipation with ≤125 °C case temperature using standard heatsinking |
| Ciss | 622 pF - reduces Miller-induced turn-on risk in high-dV/dt environments (dV/dt = 70 V/ns max) |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; 3-pin configuration (G, D, S) compatible with industry-standard footprint IPC-7351B SO-201.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts 10 V logic-level drive; threshold VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V ensures reliable turn-on with standard PWM ICs |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to exposed copper pad - must be soldered to PCB thermal plane for RthJC = 1.8 °C/W performance |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Provides Kelvin sense point for current monitoring; ties to power ground in half-bridge configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg) | 1.1 Ω × 16 nC = 17.6 Ω·nC - balances conduction and switching loss in 100–300 kHz PFC stages |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 56 mJ single-pulse energy - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching |
| Low Ciss and Crss | 622 pF input capacitance and 5 pF reverse transfer capacitance - suppresses Miller effect during high dV/dt transitions |
| Enhanced body diode | trr = 248 ns, Qrr = 1.4 μC - reduces cross-conduction loss and EMI in synchronous rectifier and bidirectional DC/DC |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP4NK80ZFP | 800 V, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω @ 10 V, Qg = 22 nC, no UIS rating | Lacks avalanche energy spec; requires external clamping in inductive loads | Prefer SIHB4N80E-GE3 where unclamped inductive switching occurs (e.g., motor drives, welding) |
| IXTH4N80L | 800 V, RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω @ 10 V, Qg = 28 nC, TO-247 package | Larger TO-247 footprint; higher thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.5 °C/W) | Choose SIHB4N80E-GE3 for space-constrained D2PAK layouts requiring lower RthJC and smaller board area |
Compared with STP4NK80ZFP and IXTH4N80L, SIHB4N80E-GE3 delivers superior avalanche ruggedness, lower gate charge for high-frequency PFC, and best-in-class thermal resistance in surface-mount form - making it optimal for compact, high-reliability 400–800 V DC systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHB4N80E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHB4N80E-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 2.7 A at TC = 100 °C, derated linearly from 4.3 A at 25 °C using the specified 0.56 W/°C derating factor. This value reflects safe operation under sustained thermal load with adequate heatsinking, and is validated per Vishay's absolute maximum ratings table in document 92034.
Does SIHB4N80E-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHB4N80E-GE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, but full enhancement requires VGS = 10 V to achieve the specified RDS(on) = 1.1 Ω. Driving it with 5 V logic will result in significantly higher on-resistance and conduction loss - use with standard 10–15 V gate drivers such as IR2110 or UCC27531.
What is the significance of the "-GE3" suffix in SIHB4N80E-GE3?
The "-GE3" suffix denotes Vishay's lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free packaging compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). It confirms the device uses matte tin plating on the D2PAK leads and meets Vishay's material categorization requirements per document 99912.
Can SIHB4N80E-GE3 replace older 800 V MOSFETs like IRFP460 in existing designs?
SIHB4N80E-GE3 is not a direct pin-compatible replacement for IRFP460 (TO-247) due to its D2PAK (TO-263) package and different pinout. While both are 800 V N-channel devices, SIHB4N80E-GE3 offers lower RDS(on) (1.1 Ω vs. 2.7 Ω), lower Qg, and rated UIS - but requires PCB layout revision and thermal validation before substitution.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the body diode in SIHB4N80E-GE3?
The typical reverse recovery charge Qrr of the integral body diode in SIHB4N80E-GE3 is 1.4 μC, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = IS = 2 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. This low Qrr contributes to reduced switching loss and EMI in freewheeling and synchronous rectification applications.
