Product details
Overview
SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 7 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.6 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 48 nC, and avalanche-rated (EAS = 56 mJ). It serves as a high-voltage switching element in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and solar inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 datasheet, SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 pinout, SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 application, or SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.6 °C/W), body diode recovery (trr = 237 ns), gate charge profile, and real-world use context for high-efficiency power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage hard-switching applications. Its low Ciss (820 pF) and ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio (11/48 nC) reduce Miller-induced turn-off delay and improve controllability under high dV/dt conditions up to 37 V/ns.
The integrated body diode supports synchronous rectification and unclamped inductive switching with validated reverse recovery (Qrr = 2.2 μC, IRRM = 16 A) and rated UIS capability-critical for PFC boost and motor drive freewheeling paths where voltage overshoot must be managed without snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 650 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified systems with 30 % safety margin for transient overvoltage in telecom/server PSUs |
| RDS(on) max | 0.6 Ω at VGS = 10 V - enables <1.8 W conduction loss at 3 A DC, suitable for continuous 5–7 A operation with heatsinking |
| Qg max | 48 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.2 A peak for 40 ns rise time), critical for ZVS/ZCS soft-switching timing |
| EAS | 56 mJ - specifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling without failure, enabling robustness in inductive load switching |
| tr/tf | 12–24 ns / 20–40 ns - fast switching transitions minimize overlap loss in hard-switched topologies like LLC resonant converters |
| RthJC | 1.6 °C/W - allows ~49 W power dissipation with 78 °C case-to-ambient ΔT, supporting compact heatsink integration in DPAK footprint |
| ID continuous | 7 A at TC = 25 °C - defines maximum steady-state current before thermal derating begins at 0.63 W/°C above 25 °C |
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), compatible with IPC-7351B SO-252A land pattern.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate | Controls channel conduction; requires 10 V drive for full enhancement; ±30 V absolute max rating prevents oxide damage |
| Pin 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side switching node; electrically connected to exposed copper pad for thermal path and high-current routing |
| Pin 3 (S) | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; ties to power ground plane; carries full load current and body diode return path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 360 Ω·nC - directly improves efficiency in high-frequency SMPS by reducing combined conduction + switching loss |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 56 mJ single-pulse rating - eliminates need for external clamping in flyback/PFC circuits with inductive energy storage |
| Ultra-low Qgd | 11 nC - minimizes Miller plateau duration, enabling faster turn-off and improved noise immunity in noisy EMI environments |
| Low Ciss | 820 pF - reduces gate drive power consumption and improves high-frequency stability in gate-loop design |
| Body diode trr | 237 ns - enables reliable freewheeling in half-bridge configurations without cross-conduction risk when paired with proper dead-time |
Applications
| Server Power Supply | Solar PV Inverter |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP6NK60ZFP | 600 V, RDS(on) = 0.75 Ω, Qg = 32 nC, TO-220FP package | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss; lower Qg eases gate drive but lacks avalanche rating | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial supplies where layout allows larger heatsink and avalanche stress is absent |
| IXTP50N10P | 100 V, RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω, Qg = 95 nC, TO-220 package | Lower voltage rating precludes use in 400 V AC systems; higher Qg demands stronger gate driver | Only viable in low-voltage DC-DC stages downstream of PFC; not a functional substitute for SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 |
Compared with STP6NK60ZFP and IXTP50N10P, SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 uniquely balances 650 V rating, 0.6 Ω RDS(on), and 56 mJ avalanche capability in DPAK-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability PFC and solar inverter designs where voltage margin and ruggedness are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 supports 5 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating from 7 A at 25 °C reflects thermal limits of the DPAK package and ensures junction temperature remains ≤150 °C under sustained load. The linear derating factor is 0.63 W/°C, allowing precise thermal design for target ambient conditions.
Does SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 have a qualified avalanche rating, and how is it tested?
Yes, SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 is avalanche energy rated at EAS = 56 mJ (single-pulse, test condition: VDD = 50 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 2 A). This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD24-1 and confirms robustness against inductive switching stress without degradation-critical for PFC and flyback converter reliability.
What is the typical gate threshold voltage range for SIHD6N65ET1-GE3, and why does it matter?
The SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 has a VGS(th) range of 2–4 V at TJ = 25 °C. This moderate threshold ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while avoiding accidental activation from noise or leakage currents. It also supports compatibility with both 5 V and 12 V control logic, provided sufficient overdrive is maintained for low RDS(on).
How does the body diode performance of SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 compare to standard FRDs in PFC applications?
The SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 body diode exhibits trr = 237 ns, Qrr = 2.2 μC, and VSD = 1.3 V at 3 A. While slower than dedicated fast recovery diodes, its integrated nature eliminates parasitic inductance and simplifies layout in critical PFC boost diodes-especially where soft-switching or synchronous rectification is not implemented.
Is SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, and what is its RoHS status?
Yes, SIHD6N65ET1-GE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's Material Declaration per doc. #99912. The "-GE3" suffix explicitly denotes Green, lead-free, and halogen-free construction-verified through standardized XRF testing and material certifications traceable to Vishay's manufacturing lots.
