Product details
Overview
SIHD6N62E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 620 V, 6 A N-channel DPAK (TO-252) power MOSFET optimized for high-voltage switching in SMPS and PFC stages, featuring RDS(on) = 0.9 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 34 nC, and avalanche-rated EAS = 88 mJ - deployed in telecom rectifiers and solar PV inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHD6N62E-GE3 datasheet, SIHD6N62E-GE3 pinout, SIHD6N62E-GE3 application, or SIHD6N62E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 620 V VDS, low gate charge for ZVS/ZCS compatibility, rugged body diode with trr = 190 ns, and DPAK thermal resistance RthJC = 1.6 °C/W for high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This device uses planar vertical DMOS technology with an integrated ultra-fast recovery body diode, enabling hard-switched operation up to 100 kHz in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC. Its low Ciss = 578 pF and Coss = 36 pF support reduced capacitive losses during turn-off transitions.
The MOSFET operates with VGS(th) = 2–4 V and exhibits positive VDS temperature coefficient (0.76 V/°C), supporting current sharing in parallel configurations. It is rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) and meets industrial-grade TJ = –55 to +150 °C operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 620 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified to ~565 V DC bus with 10 % margin for surge and ripple. |
| RDS(on) max | 0.9 Ω at VGS = 10 V - limits conduction loss to ≤ 8.1 W at 3 A ID, enabling compact heatsinking. |
| Qg max | 34 nC - enables efficient gate drive with <1 W driver power at 100 kHz switching frequency. |
| EAS | 88 mJ - withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure in flyback or LLC resonant snubbers. |
| trr | 190 ns - minimizes reverse recovery loss and dI/dt-induced voltage overshoot in bridge-leg commutation. |
| RthJC | 1.6 °C/W - allows >40 W dissipation with 65 °C case rise, suitable for thermally constrained DPAK layouts. |
| ID cont. | 6 A at TC = 25 °C - defines maximum steady-state current under ideal heatsink conditions. |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) package with exposed drain pad on bottom side for thermal conduction; standard 3-pin surface-mount outline measuring 6.22 mm × 6.73 mm × 1.78 mm (L × W × H), lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts 10 V logic-level drive; requires <34 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±30 V rating). |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to HV DC bus; electrically tied to exposed copper pad for thermal path to PCB ground plane. |
| S (Source) | Power return and reference node | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; carries full load current and body diode reverse recovery current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg) | 0.9 Ω × 34 nC = 30.6 Ω·nC - improves trade-off between conduction and switching loss in high-frequency PFC. |
| Avalanche energy rating | 88 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching and fault transients. |
| Ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio | 8/34 ≈ 24 % - reduces Miller effect, enabling stable high-dV/dt operation up to 37 V/ns. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 190 ns, Qrr = 1.3 μC - lowers commutation loss in half-bridge and synchronous rectifier topologies. |
| High dV/dt immunity | 37 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C - prevents false turn-on in high-noise HV environments like motor drives and inverters. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP6NK60ZFP | 600 V VDS, RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω, Qg = 27 nC, TO-220FP package | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss; through-hole mounting limits board density | Preferred where legacy TO-220 layout exists and lower gate charge outweighs higher on-resistance. |
| IXTH6N60P | 600 V VDS, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω, Qg = 22 nC, TO-247 package | Larger TO-247 offers better thermal performance but occupies 3× PCB area vs. DPAK | Chosen when >60 W dissipation is required and board space permits larger footprint. |
Compared with STP6NK60ZFP and IXTH6N60P, SIHD6N62E-GE3 delivers superior power density via DPAK packaging, tighter 620 V rating for higher DC bus margin, and lower RDS(on) for improved efficiency in space-constrained 1–3 kW converters.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHD6N62E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHD6N62E-GE3 has a maximum continuous drain current of 4 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package; at TC = 25 °C, it supports 6 A. Designers must verify PCB copper area and airflow to maintain case temperature within this limit during operation.
Does SIHD6N62E-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHD6N62E-GE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 2 V to 4 V, but full enhancement requires VGS = 10 V to achieve RDS(on) ≤ 0.9 Ω. Driving it with 5 V logic will result in significantly higher on-resistance and conduction loss; a dedicated 10–15 V gate driver is required for optimal performance of SIHD6N62E-GE3.
What is the significance of the "-GE3" suffix in SIHD6N62E-GE3?
Per Vishay's ordering nomenclature, the "-GE3" suffix indicates lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free construction compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709A. It also denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard, with 2,500 units per reel - the standard shipping format for SIHD6N62E-GE3 used in automated SMT assembly lines.
How does the body diode performance of SIHD6N62E-GE3 compare to standard FRDs?
The SIHD6N62E-GE3 body diode has trr = 190 ns and Qrr = 1.3 μC at IF = 3 A, making it faster than typical standard recovery diodes but slower than dedicated ultrafast FRDs. Its soft recovery characteristic minimizes voltage overshoot, and it is rated for IS = 7 A continuous - sufficient for freewheeling in non-synchronous buck or flyback converters where SIHD6N62E-GE3 serves as the main switch.
Can SIHD6N62E-GE3 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, SIHD6N62E-GE3 supports parallel operation due to its positive VDS temperature coefficient (0.76 V/°C), which promotes current sharing as junction temperature rises. Successful paralleling requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling; Vishay recommends using individual gate resistors and Kelvin source connections to ensure balanced switching of each SIHD6N62E-GE3 device.
