Product details
Overview
SIHG039N60E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 63 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring 0.034 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 126 nC total gate charge, and 633 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-designed for high-efficiency switching in telecom and server power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG039N60E-GE3 datasheet, SIHG039N60E-GE3 pinout, SIHG039N60E-GE3 application, or SIHG039N60E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), reduced Coss(er) of 143 pF, and rated dv/dt capability of 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C for robust hard-switching operation.
Technical Context
This 4th-generation E-series MOSFET employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized gate oxide and drift region doping to achieve low conduction loss while maintaining rugged unclamped inductive switching (UIS) performance. Its body diode exhibits 663 ns typical reverse recovery time and 12.1 μC Qrr at 25 °C, enabling moderate-frequency PFC and SMPS operation.
The device operates with gate threshold voltage between 3 V and 5 V, supports ±30 V gate drive, and delivers 17 S forward transconductance at VDS = 20 V and ID = 32 A-enabling stable gate control under varying load and temperature conditions across industrial and computing power systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % safety margin for transient overvoltage in telecom rectifiers and PV inverters |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.034 Ω at VGS = 10 V - enables <1.1 W conduction loss at 63 A continuous drain current, reducing heatsink requirements |
| Qg max | 126 nC - defines minimum gate driver peak current needed for <200 ns turn-on delay in 100 kHz+ switching applications |
| EAS | 633 mJ - ensures reliable operation during short-circuit events without external snubbers in motor drives and UPS systems |
| Coss(er) | 143 pF - lowers stored output capacitance energy, reducing turn-off loss and improving efficiency in ZVS/ZCS topologies |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +150 °C - allows deployment in sealed industrial enclosures and high-ambient telecom base stations |
| PD | 357 W - supports high-power density designs when mounted on ≥100 cm² copper area with thermal interface material |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package with isolated drain tab, 3-pin configuration, and 0.35 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Lead finish is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free per JEDEC standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts 10 V logic-level gate drive; requires <1 Ω series resistance to damp ringing due to 0.7 Ω typical gate input resistance |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to heat sink via insulated mounting; carries full load current and withstands 600 V blocking voltage |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node | Serves as return path for gate drive and sense reference; must be routed with low-inductance layout to minimize shoot-through risk |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg) | 4.3 nC·Ω - reduces combined switching and conduction losses by >15 % vs. prior-gen 600 V MOSFETs in 50–100 kHz SMPS |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 633 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping circuits in battery charger and welding inverter primary switches |
| Reduced effective output capacitance | Coss(er) = 143 pF - cuts turn-off energy loss by ~30 % compared to standard 600 V MOSFETs with similar RDS(on) |
| Body diode with controlled Qrr | 12.1 μC typical - enables soft-recovery behavior in PFC boost stages without requiring external SiC diodes |
| High dv/dt immunity | 70 V/ns at 125 °C - prevents false turn-on in high-noise motor drive half-bridges and solar inverter H-bridges |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW62N60M2 | RDS(on) = 0.038 Ω, Qg = 110 nC, Coss(er) = 165 pF, TO-247 package | Higher conduction loss but lower gate charge; less suited for high-current PFC stages | Prefer SIHG039N60E-GE3 where RDS(on) dominates system loss budget |
| IXFH50N60X | RDS(on) = 0.045 Ω, Qg = 145 nC, EAS = 520 mJ, TO-247 package | Lower avalanche rating and higher gate charge limit use in high-stress inductive loads | Prefer SIHG039N60E-GE3 for welding inverters and UPS systems requiring robust UIS |
Compared with STW62N60M2 and IXFH50N60X, SIHG039N60E-GE3 offers the lowest RDS(on) × Qg FOM and highest EAS, making it optimal for high-efficiency, high-reliability 600 V switching where conduction loss and surge immunity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG039N60E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG039N60E-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 40 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating from its 63 A rating at 25 °C, based on a linear derating factor of 2.9 W/°C and RthJC = 0.35 °C/W. Designers must ensure heatsink design maintains case temperature ≤100 °C under full-load conditions to sustain this current.
Does SIHG039N60E-GE3 support gate drive voltages below 10 V?
Yes, SIHG039N60E-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 3 V to 5 V, allowing operation with gate drive as low as 5 V. However, its RDS(on) specification (0.034 Ω typ) is guaranteed only at VGS = 10 V. At 5 V, RDS(on) increases significantly-typically >0.1 Ω-so 10 V drive is recommended for minimal conduction loss in high-current applications like server PSUs.
What is the significance of the "-GE3" suffix in SIHG039N60E-GE3?
The "-GE3" suffix in SIHG039N60E-GE3 indicates a lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free version compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's green initiative. It denotes packaging in TO-247AC with matte tin-plated leads, no intentional lead content, and full compliance with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) for unlimited floor life at ≤30 °C/60 % RH.
How does the body diode performance of SIHG039N60E-GE3 compare to standard 600 V MOSFETs?
The SIHG039N60E-GE3 features a body diode with 663 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) and 12.1 μC Qrr at 25 °C-significantly faster and lower-charge than legacy 600 V MOSFETs. This enables cleaner commutation in PFC boost stages and reduces diode-related switching loss, though it remains slower than dedicated SiC Schottky diodes used in ultra-high-frequency designs.
Can SIHG039N60E-GE3 be used in hard-switched topologies above 100 kHz?
Yes, SIHG039N60E-GE3 is qualified for hard-switched operation up to 200 kHz in well-designed layouts, supported by its 79 ns typical turn-on delay and 126 ns rise time at VDD = 480 V. However, switching losses increase quadratically with frequency; designers should verify thermal performance using its 0.35 °C/W RthJC and simulate total loss (conduction + switching) at target operating point before finalizing magnetics and gate drive.
