Product details
Overview
SIHG100N60E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 30 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring 0.086 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 50 nC total gate charge, and 226 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - designed for high-efficiency switching in telecom and server power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG100N60E-GE3 datasheet, SIHG100N60E-GE3 pinout, SIHG100N60E-GE3 application, or SIHG100N60E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VDS, low Co(er) of 64 pF, 100 V/ns dv/dt rating, and E-series 4th-generation silicon optimized for reduced conduction and switching losses in hard-switched PFC and SMPS stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Vishay's 4th-generation E-series trench-gate silicon technology, delivering low figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg = 4.3 nΩ·F) and reduced effective output capacitance (Co(er) = 64 pF), enabling high-frequency operation with minimized switching loss.
It integrates an avalanche-rated body diode with 358 ns typical reverse recovery time and 5.1 μC Qrr, supporting robust unclamped inductive switching in bridge-leg and synchronous rectifier configurations without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports primary-side switching in 400 V DC bus and 380 V AC-input PFC designs |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.086 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - enables <1.1 W conduction loss at 30 A continuous drain current |
| Qg max | 50 nC - determines gate drive power requirement and influences turn-on/turn-off timing control |
| EAS | 226 mJ - ensures reliable operation under unclamped inductive load transients without failure |
| Coss(er) | 64 pF - reduces capacitive switching loss during hard-commutation transitions |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in thermally demanding industrial and telecom environments |
| PD | 208 W @ TC = 25 °C - requires heatsinking for sustained >19 A operation above 100 °C case temperature |
Pinout & Package
SIHG100N60E-GE3 uses the TO-247AC package - a through-hole, high-power plastic-outline package with isolated drain tab, optimized for thermal dissipation and high-voltage isolation. The package features four leads: Gate (pin 1), Drain (pins 2 and 4), Source (pin 3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level drive to fully enhance channel; threshold voltage 3.0–5.0 V ensures noise immunity |
| 2 & 4 (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Electrically connected to metal tab; carries full switched current and must be mounted to heatsink with electrical isolation |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node for gate drive | Serves as return path for load current and gate drive loop; critical for minimizing common-source inductance in high-di/dt applications |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 4th-generation E-series silicon | Reduces RDS(on) × Qg FOM by >25% vs. prior generation, improving efficiency in 100–300 kHz PFC stages |
| Avalanche energy rated (UIS) | 226 mJ single-pulse rating allows safe operation under transient overloads without derating or external clamping |
| Low Co(er) and Coss | 64 pF effective output capacitance minimizes stored energy loss during turn-off, reducing heat in high-frequency SMPS |
| Enhanced body diode | 358 ns trr and 24 A IRRM support ZVS-assisted topologies and reduce need for external anti-parallel diodes |
| Lead (Pb)-free & halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization per doc#99912 |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW48N60M2 | 600 V, 48 A, RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω, Qg = 65 nC, TO-247 long leads | Higher current rating but larger Qg; less optimized for high-frequency PFC | Preferred where higher continuous current headroom is needed and gate drive capability supports 65 nC charge |
| IXFH110N60P | 600 V, 110 A, RDS(on) = 0.042 Ω, Qg = 120 nC, TO-247 short leads | Lower RDS(on) but significantly higher Qg; suited for lower-frequency motor drives | Selected when conduction loss dominates and switching frequency is ≤50 kHz |
Compared with STW48N60M2 and IXFH110N60P, SIHG100N60E-GE3 offers the best balance of low Qg-normalized RDS(on) and avalanche ruggedness for 100–250 kHz telecom/server PFC, while avoiding excessive gate drive burden or thermal derating penalties.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIHG100N60E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for SIHG100N60E-GE3 is 19 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value accounts for thermal derating from the 30 A rating at 25 °C and reflects practical operation with heatsink interface resistance and ambient airflow constraints. SIHG100N60E-GE3 maintains stable RDS(on) performance across this range due to its positive temperature coefficient.
Does SIHG100N60E-GE3 have a fully rated avalanche capability, and what is the test condition?
Yes, SIHG100N60E-GE3 is fully rated for single-pulse unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 226 mJ. The test condition is VDD = 120 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 4.0 A. This rating is validated per JEDEC standard JESD24-1 and confirms ruggedness against transient overloads in real-world power circuits.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHG100N60E-GE3, and how does it affect drive design?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHG100N60E-GE3 is 3.0 V to 5.0 V at VDS = VGS and ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing margin against false triggering from noise. SIHG100N60E-GE3 requires ≥8 V to achieve near-minimum RDS(on), so drive circuits must maintain stable rail voltage under load.
Can SIHG100N60E-GE3 be used in place of older Vishay 600 V MOSFETs like the SIHF100N60E?
SIHG100N60E-GE3 is the enhanced successor to SIHF100N60E, sharing identical TO-247AC package, pinout, and voltage rating, but offering improved RDS(on) (0.086 Ω vs. 0.095 Ω), lower Qg (33–50 nC vs. 38–55 nC), and tighter parameter distribution. SIHG100N60E-GE3 is a direct drop-in replacement with measurable efficiency gains in existing designs.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHG100N60E-GE3, and how does it impact heatsink selection?
The maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) for SIHG100N60E-GE3 is 0.6 °C/W. With PD = 208 W at TC = 25 °C, this implies a theoretical ΔTJ-C of 125 °C - consistent with its 150 °C max TJ. For reliable 19 A operation at TC = 100 °C, a heatsink with RthCA ≤ 1.0 °C/W (including interface material) is recommended to keep TJ below 140 °C.
