Product details
Overview
SIHD14N60E-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 13 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.269 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 32 nC (typ), and avalanche-rated (EAS = 136 mJ). It serves as a high-voltage switching element in offline SMPS primary-side circuits, PFC boost stages, and industrial motor drive inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHD14N60E-BE3 datasheet, SIHD14N60E-BE3 pinout, SIHD14N60E-BE3 application, or SIHD14N60E-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VDS rating, low gate charge for high-frequency hard-switching, robust body diode (trr = 281 ns), and TO-252 thermal performance (RthJC = 0.85 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device employs planar VDMOS technology optimized for high-voltage power conversion. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V) enables standard 10 V gate drivers, while low Ciss (1205 pF) and ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio (13/32 nC) reduce switching losses and improve EMI behavior in 50–100 kHz SMPS topologies.
The integral body diode supports synchronous rectification and unclamped inductive switching, with validated dV/dt immunity (70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C) and UIS ruggedness. Thermal design leverages the DPAK's low junction-to-case resistance for conduction-limited operation up to 100 °C case temperature.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - Supports 400 V AC mains input with 50 % safety margin in bridge rectified PFC and flyback designs |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.269 Ω at VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.3 W conduction loss at 7 A DC, suitable for 150–300 W power stages |
| Qg max | 64 nC - Limits gate drive power requirement; compatible with common 1 A peak gate drivers at 100 kHz |
| EAS | 136 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure in 28.2 mH test circuit per JEDEC JESD24-1 |
| tr/tf | 19/15 ns (typ) - Enables fast turn-on/off transitions with minimal overlap loss in hard-switched converters |
| RthJC | 0.85 °C/W - Allows 147 W continuous dissipation with modest heatsinking on PCB copper pour |
| VSD | 1.2 V at IS = 7 A - Low forward drop reduces reverse recovery losses during freewheeling in half-bridge configurations |
Pinout & Package
SIHD14N60E-BE3 is housed in a surface-mount DPAK (TO-252) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. The package features three terminals: Gate (G), Drain (D), and Source (S), with Drain electrically connected to the large tab for low-inductance, high-current paths.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Control electrode | Receives gate drive signal; requires 10 V for full enhancement; input capacitance Ciss = 1205 pF affects driver sizing |
| D | High-side power terminal | Connected to drain of internal MOSFET; tied to exposed metal tab; carries main load current and must be routed with low-inductance copper |
| S | Reference and return path | Source node for gate drive reference; forms return path for load current; connects to power ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 8.6 Ω·nC - Reduces combined conduction and switching losses in high-frequency SMPS, improving efficiency >92 % at 100 kHz |
| Avalanche energy rated (UIS) | 136 mJ - Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching, enhancing system reliability |
| Ultra-low Qgd | 13 nC - Minimizes Miller plateau duration, enabling stable operation with fast gate drivers and reducing risk of spurious turn-on |
| Body diode trr | 281 ns - Supports moderate-frequency freewheeling in half-bridge and LLC resonant converters without excessive diode loss |
| High dV/dt immunity | 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C - Ensures noise immunity in high dv/dt environments like motor drives and PFC stages |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP14NK60ZFP | 600 V, 14 A, RDS(on) = 0.32 Ω, Qg = 45 nC, TO-220FP package | Higher RDS(on) and Qg; through-hole mounting; higher RthJC (1.2 °C/W) | Preferred where mechanical robustness and vertical heatsinking are prioritized over board space and switching speed |
| IXTH12N60L2 | 600 V, 12 A, RDS(on) = 0.33 Ω, Qg = 22 nC, TO-247 package | Lower Qg but larger footprint; higher cost; no integrated avalanche rating | Selected when ultra-low gate charge dominates over avalanche ruggedness and board area constraints |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHD14N60E-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHD14N60E-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 8 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the DPAK package and ensures safe operation without exceeding the 150 °C maximum junction temperature. The SIHD14N60E-BE3 maintains RDS(on) stability across this range due to its positive VDS temperature coefficient.
Does SIHD14N60E-BE3 have an avalanche-rated specification, and how is it tested?
Yes, SIHD14N60E-BE3 is avalanche energy rated with EAS = 136 mJ (single pulse), tested per JEDEC JESD24-1 using VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 3.1 A. This rating confirms ruggedness against inductive switching transients. The SIHD14N60E-BE3 does not require external clamping in properly designed PFC or motor drive circuits.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHD14N60E-BE3, and why does it matter for gate drive design?
The gate threshold voltage VGS(th) for SIHD14N60E-BE3 is 2.0–4.0 V at ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while avoiding unintended conduction from noise. For robust operation, the SIHD14N60E-BE3 requires ≥8 V to achieve near-minimum RDS(on), and gate drive must supply sufficient peak current to charge Qg = 32 nC rapidly.
How does the body diode performance of SIHD14N60E-BE3 compare to discrete diodes in freewheeling applications?
The SIHD14N60E-BE3 body diode has VSD = 1.2 V at IS = 7 A and trr = 281 ns, offering lower forward drop than many 600 V FRDs but slower recovery than dedicated SiC Schottky diodes. In half-bridge freewheeling, the SIHD14N60E-BE3 body diode eliminates external components but requires careful layout to manage reverse recovery current spikes.
Is SIHD14N60E-BE3 lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, and what is its RoHS compliance status?
Yes, SIHD14N60E-BE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization per document 99912. The "-BE3" suffix explicitly denotes this environmental compliance. The SIHD14N60E-BE3 uses matte tin plating and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) for unlimited floor life at ≤30 °C/60 % RH.
