Product details
Overview
SIHG11N80AE-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an 800 V, 8 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.391 Ω (typ.) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 28 nC (typ.), and avalanche-rated EAS = 88 mJ - optimized for high-voltage switch-mode power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG11N80AE-GE3 datasheet, SIHG11N80AE-GE3 pinout, SIHG11N80AE-GE3 application, or SIHG11N80AE-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), ultra-low gate charge, integrated Zener ESD protection, and rugged unclamped inductive switching capability.
Technical Context
This device employs a planar high-voltage silicon process with optimized cell layout to achieve low conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its Ciss = 804 pF and Coss = 34 pF support fast, efficient hard-switching in 640 V bus applications, while dV/dt rating of 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C ensures noise immunity in noisy power-conversion environments.
The integral body diode exhibits trr = 278 ns (typ.) and Qrr = 2.9 μC (typ.) at IF = 5.5 A, enabling reliable operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC and flyback topologies without external snubbing. Gate threshold voltage VGS(th) = 2–4 V supports standard 10 V gate drivers without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 800 V - supports 640 V DC bus designs with 25 % margin for transients |
| RDS(on) typ. | 0.391 Ω at VGS = 10 V, ID = 5.5 A - enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 8 A |
| Qg max | 42 nC - reduces gate drive power and enables use of low-current drivers |
| EAS | 88 mJ - withstands unclamped inductive energy without failure in PFC choke or motor drive freewheeling |
| Ciss | 804 pF - balances switching speed and EMI control in 100–300 kHz SMPS |
| tr/tf | 15/27 ns (typ.) - supports fast turn-on/turn-off with minimal overlap loss |
| RthJC | 1.6 °C/W - allows >70 W dissipation with modest heatsinking at TC = 100 °C |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package with isolated drain tab, 3-pin through-hole configuration, and thermal pad on drain (pin 2 and 4). Standard lead finish, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control input | Low-impedance gate terminal requiring ≤10 V drive; Rg = 0.7–3 Ω limits ringing |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side power output | Connected to heat sink; carries full load current and withstands 800 V blocking |
| 3 (Source) | Power return / reference | Common node for gate drive return and current sensing; ties to PCB ground plane |
| 4 (Drain) | Secondary drain connection | Parallel drain path for enhanced current handling and thermal spreading to heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 31.3 Ω·nC - minimizes combined conduction + switching loss in high-frequency PFC |
| Avalanche energy rating | 88 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching |
| Zener-protected gate | ±30 V VGS rating with integrated ESD diode - prevents gate oxide damage during handling and board assembly |
| Low effective output capacitance | Coss(tr) = 162 pF - reduces turn-off loss and improves zero-voltage switching (ZVS) margin |
| Body diode softness | trr = 278 ns, Qrr = 2.9 μC - suppresses voltage overshoot and EMI during diode commutation |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP12N80K5 | RDS(on) = 0.42 Ω (typ.), Qg = 45 nC, no integrated Zener ESD protection | Slightly higher conduction loss; requires external gate protection | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs gate robustness and 3 % efficiency gain |
| IXTH12N80L | RDS(on) = 0.40 Ω (typ.), Qg = 36 nC, EAS = 65 mJ, TO-247 long leads | Lower avalanche margin; longer lead inductance increases switching overshoot risk | Selected when lower Qg is prioritized over ruggedness in well-damped layouts |
Compared with STP12N80K5 and IXTH12N80L, SIHG11N80AE-GE3 delivers superior FOM (31.3 vs. 35.7 and 28.8 Ω·nC), higher EAS, and built-in gate protection - making it optimal for high-reliability, high-efficiency 800 V systems where layout constraints limit external protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG11N80AE-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG11N80AE-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 5 A at TC = 100 °C, derated linearly from 8 A at TC = 25 °C using a factor of 0.6 W/°C. This reflects thermal limitation of the TO-247AC package under real-world heatsink conditions, not silicon capability.
Does SIHG11N80AE-GE3 include integrated ESD protection on the gate terminal?
Yes, SIHG11N80AE-GE3 features an integrated Zener diode for gate-source ESD protection, enabling ±30 V VGS rating and eliminating the need for external gate protection components in most applications - confirmed in the "Features" section and Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Vishay datasheet.
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in SIHG11N80AE-GE3?
The typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in SIHG11N80AE-GE3 is 278 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 5.5 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. This value is specified in the "Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics" table and supports clean commutation in CCM PFC and resonant topologies.
Can SIHG11N80AE-GE3 be used in avalanche mode, and what is its rated single-pulse energy?
Yes, SIHG11N80AE-GE3 is fully rated for repetitive and single-pulse avalanche operation. Its single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) is 88 mJ under test conditions of VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 2.5 A - verified per JEDEC JESD24-1 and documented in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHG11N80AE-GE3?
The maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) for SIHG11N80AE-GE3 is 1.6 °C/W, measured from junction to the drain tab (pins 2 and 4). This value is critical for heatsink sizing and confirms the device's ability to dissipate up to 78 W at TC = 25 °C, as stated in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table.
