Product details
Overview
SIHG22N60EF-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 19 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring ultra-low gate charge (Qg = 48–96 nC), fast body diode (trr = 113–226 ns), and avalanche-rated ruggedness (EAS = 144 mJ). It serves as a primary switching device in high-efficiency PFC and main-switch stages of telecom/server SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG22N60EF-GE3 datasheet, SIHG22N60EF-GE3 pinout, SIHG22N60EF-GE3 application, or SIHG22N60EF-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) = 0.158 Ω @ 10 V, Ciss = 1423 pF, dv/dt capability of 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C, and fast-recovery body diode performance for hard-switched topologies.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage switching with low figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg = ~15.2 Ω·nC typ.). Its fast intrinsic body diode enables reduced snubber losses and supports ZVS-assisted operation in resonant converters without external diode parallelization.
The device integrates avalanche energy rating (UIS) and exhibits stable RDS(on) temperature coefficient (0.68 V/°C), enabling predictable conduction loss scaling across -55 to +150 °C junction range. Gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) ensures robust noise immunity while supporting standard 10 V gate drivers.
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/server PFC stages. |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.158 Ω @ 10 V, 25 °C - Enables <1.9 W conduction loss at 11 A RMS in continuous conduction mode PFC. |
| Qg max | 96 nC - Reduces gate drive power requirement and allows use of lower-cost, lower-current gate drivers (e.g., 1–2 A peak). |
| trr max | 226 ns - Limits reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 1.4 μC) to minimize turn-on switching loss and EMI in hard-switched converters. |
| EAS | 144 mJ - Guarantees single-pulse unclamped inductive switching survivability in motor drive or welder output stages. |
| dv/dt rating | 70 V/ns @ TJ = 125 °C - Ensures reliable operation under high dV/dt stress in high-frequency LLC or phase-shifted full-bridge topologies. |
| RthJC | 0.7 °C/W - Enables thermal design with ≤125 °C case temperature at 179 W dissipation, supporting forced-air-cooled 3 kW PFC modules. |
Pinout & Package
SIHG22N60EF-GE3 is housed in TO-247AC package - a through-hole, high-power, single-ended outline with isolated drain tab, optimized for high-voltage isolation and thermal transfer via mounting screw to heatsink. The plastic body includes optional thermal pad contour per JEDEC TO-247 AC variant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level gate drive; low input capacitance (Ciss = 1423 pF) minimizes driver loading and propagation delay. |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to HV DC bus or transformer primary; electrically isolated metal tab enables direct heatsink mounting with dielectric interface. |
| 3 (Source) | Power return / reference node | Serves as local ground reference for gate driver; low-inductance layout critical to suppress VGS ringing during fast switching. |
| 4 (Drain) | Secondary drain connection | Duplicate drain terminal for enhanced current handling and reduced package inductance; must be connected to same HV node as Pin 2. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast body diode | trr = 113–226 ns with IRRM = 11 A - Eliminates need for external anti-parallel diode in flyback or active-clamp forward converters. |
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | ~15.2 Ω·nC typ. - Balances conduction and switching losses for optimal efficiency in 65–300 kHz SMPS applications. |
| Avalanche energy rated | EAS = 144 mJ - Allows safe operation under inductive load switching without external snubbers in battery charger or UPS output stages. |
| Lead (Pb)-free & halogen-free | Compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's Material Declaration 99912 - Suitable for industrial and telecom equipment requiring green compliance. |
| High dv/dt immunity | 70 V/ns @ TJ = 125 °C - Prevents false turn-on during high-speed switching in multi-kW inverters and motor drives. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW20NK60Z | RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 72 nC; no UIS rating; TO-247 package | Lacks avalanche ruggedness; requires external clamping in inductive loads; higher conduction loss at >10 A | Acceptable for fixed-input SMPS where transient stress is controlled, but not recommended for motor drives or renewable energy inverters. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG22N60EF-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG22N60EF-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 12 A at TC = 100 °C, derated linearly from 19 A at TC = 25 °C using a 1.4 W/°C thermal derating factor. This reflects its ability to sustain high current under forced-air cooling in compact power modules where case temperature exceeds ambient by >75 °C.
Does SIHG22N60EF-GE3 have a specified gate threshold voltage range, and how does it affect drive circuit design?
Yes, SIHG22N60EF-GE3 specifies a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25 °C. This wide range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing noise margin against spurious triggering - critical in high-dv/dt environments like motor drives where gate drive routing crosses noisy power traces.
Can SIHG22N60EF-GE3 replace older 600 V MOSFETs in existing PFC designs without layout changes?
SIHG22N60EF-GE3 uses the industry-standard TO-247AC footprint and shares identical pinout (Gate-Drain-Source-Drain) with legacy devices like IRFP460 or STW20NK60Z. However, its lower Qg and faster body diode may require minor gate resistor adjustment (e.g., increasing Rg from 10 Ω to 15 Ω) to control dI/dt and prevent oscillation in high-L di/dt circuits.
What is the significance of the "EF" suffix in SIHG22N60EF-GE3, and how does it differ from standard Vishay 600 V MOSFETs?
The "EF" denotes Vishay's EF Series - a family optimized for low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit and fast intrinsic body diode performance. Unlike standard "E" or "N" series, EF devices undergo enhanced process tuning for reduced Qgd and Co(er), resulting in lower switching loss and improved hard-switching robustness - directly validated in SIHG22N60EF-GE3's 48–96 nC Qg and 48 pF Co(er) specs.
Is SIHG22N60EF-GE3 suitable for use in automotive under-hood applications?
No - SIHG22N60EF-GE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is rated for TJ = -55 to +150 °C, which meets industrial but not automotive under-hood requirements (typically -40 to +175 °C with qualification). Its packaging, test protocols, and reliability reporting align with telecom and server standards, not automotive functional safety or qualification mandates.
