Product details
Overview
SIHFR024-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 60 V, 14 A N-channel surface-mount power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 0.10 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 25 nC total gate charge, and 91 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-designed for DC-DC converters, motor control, and load switching where fast switching and ruggedness are critical.
For engineers reviewing the SIHFR024-GE3 datasheet, SIHFR024-GE3 pinout, SIHFR024-GE3 application, or SIHFR024-GE3 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, body diode recovery characteristics, and PCB-mount power dissipation limits to support layout validation and reliability analysis.
Technical Context
This third-generation TrenchFET® MOSFET uses optimized silicon process and packaging to achieve low conduction loss while maintaining high dV/dt immunity (5.5 V/ns) and robust unclamped inductive switching capability. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) ensures compatibility with standard 10 V logic-level drivers.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode (trr = 88–180 ns, Qrr = 0.29–0.64 μC) and exhibits linear SOA up to 100 μs pulse width, supporting hard-switched topologies without external snubbers in moderate-power applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 24 V/48 V bus systems with margin against transients |
| RDS(on) | 0.10 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Enables ≤1.2 W conduction loss at 14 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 25 nC - Determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed in PWM circuits |
| EAS | 91 mJ - Supports reliable operation under unclamped inductive turn-off stress without external clamping |
| trr | 88–180 ns - Limits reverse recovery losses and EMI generation during synchronous rectification |
| PD (TC = 25 °C) | 42 W - Requires heatsink or copper pour for sustained >10 A operation at ambient temperature |
| RthJC | 3.0 °C/W - Enables direct thermal path from die to heatsink via exposed drain pad in DPAK |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) package with exposed drain pad on bottom side for thermal and electrical connection; surface-mount compatible with vapor phase, infrared, or wave soldering per JEDEC standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 10 V logic-level signal to fully enhance channel; 5.8 nC gate-source charge defines Miller plateau duration |
| D (Drain) | High-side power output | Exposed metal pad on underside-must be connected to system ground plane or heatsink for thermal management and low-inductance return path |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Provides low-impedance source connection; internal 7.5 nH source inductance affects switching waveform ringing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFR024TRPbF-BE3 | Same silicon die, alternate manufacturing location; identical RDS(on), Qg, and EAS; "-BE3" suffix denotes different fab site | No functional difference; qualified for same automotive and industrial temperature ranges (−55 to +150 °C) | Select when supply chain diversification or dual-sourcing is required without design change |
| STP60NF06L | 60 V, 60 A, 0.016 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package; higher current rating but larger footprint and no exposed drain pad | Requires PCB redesign for through-hole mounting and additional heatsinking; not drop-in for DPAK layouts | Choose only if higher current capacity and lower RDS(on) justify mechanical redesign and thermal revalidation |
Compared with IRFR024TRPbF-BE3, SIHFR024-GE3 offers identical electrical performance with lead-free/halogen-free compliance confirmed by Vishay's material categorization; versus STP60NF06L, SIHFR024-GE3 provides superior thermal interface via DPAK's exposed drain but trades off peak current capability for compact surface-mount integration.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHFR024-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHFR024-GE3 supports 9.0 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package; designers must ensure adequate copper area or heatsinking to maintain case temperature below 100 °C under full load. The SIHFR024-GE3 data sheet confirms this value with linear derating factor of 0.33 W/°C above 25 °C.
Does SIHFR024-GE3 have a built-in body diode, and what are its key recovery parameters?
Yes, SIHFR024-GE3 integrates a monolithic body diode with typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 88 ns and maximum of 180 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 17 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. Its reverse recovery charge (Qrr) ranges from 0.29 to 0.64 μC. These values are measured per the test conditions in the datasheet and directly impact efficiency and EMI in synchronous rectifier or freewheeling applications using the SIHFR024-GE3.
What is the gate-source threshold voltage range for SIHFR024-GE3, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The SIHFR024-GE3 has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2.0 V to 4.0 V at ID = 250 μA. This ensures full enhancement with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level gate drivers without requiring specialized level shifters. Because the SIHFR024-GE3 operates reliably across this range, designers can use microcontroller GPIOs directly-provided gate drive strength meets the 25 nC total gate charge requirement.
Can SIHFR024-GE3 be used in linear mode for hot-swap or inrush limiting applications?
Yes, SIHFR024-GE3 is rated for linear-mode operation with a maximum power dissipation of 42 W at TC = 25 °C and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3.0 °C/W. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve (Fig. 7) confirms capability for short-duration linear use-e.g., hot-swap current limiting-with appropriate gate bias control and thermal monitoring. The SIHFR024-GE3 datasheet explicitly validates this usage in unclamped inductive and linear regions.
What is the meaning of the "-GE3" suffix in SIHFR024-GE3?
The "-GE3" suffix in SIHFR024-GE3 indicates lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free compliance per Vishay's material categorization standard (document #99912), with "E3" denoting a specific environmental compliance grade. It does not indicate a functional variant-the SIHFR024-GE3 shares identical electrical specifications, package dimensions, and thermal performance with non-GE3 variants like IRFR024TRPbF-BE3. All SIHFR024-GE3 units meet RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS-001 ESD standards.
