Product details
Overview
SIHFR1N60A-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 1.4 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 7.0 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 14 nC total gate charge, and 93 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - designed for high-voltage, low-current switching in flyback SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SIHFR1N60A-GE3 datasheet, SIHFR1N60A-GE3 pinout, SIHFR1N60A-GE3 application, or SIHFR1N60A-GE3 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 600 V blocking capability, thermally robust DPAK footprint, body diode recovery time of 290–440 ns, and suitability for unclamped inductive switching in offline AC/DC converters.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar VDMOS technology optimized for high-voltage ruggedness, with fully characterized Ciss (229 pF), Coss (32.6 pF), and Crss (2.4 pF) enabling accurate snubber and EMI design. Its gate threshold voltage range (2.0–4.0 V) ensures stable turn-on under varying drive conditions.
The device supports repetitive avalanche operation up to 1.4 A and 3.6 mJ, with peak diode recovery dV/dt rated at 3.8 V/ns - critical for reliable operation in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flyback topologies where secondary-side diode reverse recovery stresses the primary switch.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports universal AC input (85–265 VAC) with sufficient margin for reflected transients in flyback designs |
| RDS(on) max | 7.0 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - determines conduction loss at 1.4 A ID; enables <1 W dissipation in low-power SMPS |
| Qg max | 14 nC - defines gate driver current requirement; allows use of low-cost bipolar or CMOS drivers |
| EAS | 93 mJ - specifies single-pulse unclamped inductive switching capability without failure |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in sealed industrial or telecom power enclosures |
| RthJC | 3.5 °C/W - enables thermal design with minimal heatsinking when mounted on PCB copper pour |
| trr / Qrr | 290–440 ns / 510–760 µC - quantifies body diode recovery stress during hard-switching transitions |
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 × 2.39 mm (L × W × H), compatible with IPC-7351B SO-252 footprint.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in 5–25 W AC/DC adapter operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with universal input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage switching element controlling energy transfer from primary to secondary; turns off at zero current to minimize switching loss. Use Value: 600 V rating accommodates 400 V DC bus plus 100 V transient margin; 7.0 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1 W at full load. | Use Scenario: Boost switch in active PFC stage for LED drivers or industrial power supplies requiring >0.95 PF. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching boost transistor handling line-frequency ripple current and high-voltage stress during hold-up time. Use Value: 3.8 V/ns peak diode recovery dV/dt rating prevents false triggering during diode commutation; 1.4 A ID supports typical 10–15 W PFC stages. |
| Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) | Industrial DC-DC Converter |
Use Scenario: Inverter bridge switch in standby UPS systems converting 12–48 V battery to 120/230 V AC output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-duty-cycle high-voltage switch operating in square-wave or modified sine-wave topology. Use Value: –55 °C to +150 °C operating range ensures reliability in temperature-cycled battery cabinets; 93 mJ EAS withstands load dump events. | Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in isolated 24 V to 5/12 V DC-DC converter for PLC I/O modules or sensor interfaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Energy-transfer switch in forward or flyback topology with reinforced isolation requirements. Use Value: Fully characterized Coss (32.6 pF) enables accurate calculation of capacitive turn-off loss; TO-252 package supports automated assembly and reflow compatibility. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP1NK60Z | 600 V, 1.05 A, RDS(on) = 11.5 Ω, Qg = 9.5 nC, TO-220 package | Lower current rating and higher RDS(on); through-hole mounting only | Preferred where board space permits through-hole layout and lower cost outweighs SMT assembly benefits |
| FQP1N60CTF | 600 V, 1.0 A, RDS(on) = 11.5 Ω, Qg = 10 nC, TO-220FP package | Same RDS(on) and lower Qg, but reduced current and thermal performance (RthJC = 50 °C/W) | Selected when vertical mounting and simplified heatsink interface are prioritized over PCB area and thermal efficiency |
Compared with SIHFR1N60A-GE3, STP1NK60Z offers lower gate charge but sacrifices 30 % current capability and requires through-hole assembly, while FQP1N60CTF trades off junction-to-case thermal resistance (50 °C/W vs. 3.5 °C/W) for a compact through-hole form factor - making SIHFR1N60A-GE3 optimal for thermally constrained, high-reliability SMT flyback designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHFR1N60A-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHFR1N60A-GE3 has a maximum continuous drain current of 0.89 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package under sustained high-temperature operation and must be verified against actual PCB layout and airflow conditions in the final design.
Does SIHFR1N60A-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHFR1N60A-GE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage range is 2.0–4.0 V, and it is characterized for RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. For reliable enhancement-mode operation with low on-resistance, a 10 V gate drive is required - not 3.3 V or 5 V logic levels.
What is the body diode reverse recovery time (trr) specification for SIHFR1N60A-GE3?
The SIHFR1N60A-GE3 body diode reverse recovery time is specified as 290–440 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 1.4 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. This parameter is critical for estimating switching losses and voltage overshoot during hard-commutation in flyback and resonant topologies.
Can SIHFR1N60A-GE3 be used in avalanche mode for clamping applications?
Yes, SIHFR1N60A-GE3 is fully characterized for avalanche operation: it supports 93 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy and 3.6 mJ repetitive avalanche energy. However, avalanche use requires strict adherence to pulse width, duty cycle, and junction temperature limits defined in Figures 11–13 of the datasheet to ensure reliability.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RthJA) for SIHFR1N60A-GE3 on a standard PCB?
The SIHFR1N60A-GE3 has a maximum RthJA of 110 °C/W when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB, and 50 °C/W when using PCB mount (copper pour). These values assume specific test conditions - actual thermal performance depends on copper area, layer count, and airflow, and should be validated via thermal simulation or measurement.
