Product details
Overview
SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 25 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring fast body diode (trr = 138 ns typ.), low gate charge (Qg = 50 nC typ.), and avalanche-rated ruggedness (EAS = 353 mJ). It serves as a high-voltage switching device in telecom and industrial DC-DC converters and PV inverter half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 datasheet, SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 pinout, SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 application, or SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) = 0.127 Ω @ 10 V, dV/dt capability of 70 V/ns, and UIS-rated operation under unclamped inductive switching stress.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs optimized silicon process and cell layout to reduce figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg), enabling high-efficiency hard-switching in 480 V bus applications. Its fast intrinsic body diode minimizes reverse recovery losses during synchronous rectification or freewheeling phases.
The device integrates an avalanche-energy-rated structure (353 mJ single-pulse) and exhibits low Ciss (2274 pF) and Crss (4 pF), supporting clean turn-on/turn-off waveforms with minimal Miller-induced oscillation in high-dV/dt environments.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW20NM60ND | RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 45 nC; trr = 220 ns; TO-247 package | Higher conduction loss but lower gate charge; slower body diode increases recovery loss in ZVS circuits | Prefer when gate drive strength is limited and switching frequency <150 kHz |
| IXFH24N60P | RDS(on) = 0.21 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 72 nC; no specified trr or Qrr; TO-247 package | Lacks documented fast-body-diode performance; avalanche rating not specified in datasheet | Acceptable where body diode conduction is avoided via synchronous control or external diodes |
Compared with STW20NM60ND and IXFH24N60P, SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 delivers superior switching efficiency in hard-commutated topologies due to its combination of low RDS(on), low Qg, and verified fast trr/Qrr - critical for telecom PSUs and PV inverters where thermal headroom is constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 16 A at TC = 100 °C, derated linearly from 25 A at TC = 25 °C using a 2 W/°C derating factor. This reflects thermal limitations of the TO-247AC package under real-world heatsink conditions and must be validated against actual board-level thermal resistance in the target application.
Does SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 support gate drive voltages below 10 V?
Yes, SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 specifies gate threshold voltage VGS(th) between 3.0 V and 5.0 V, enabling partial enhancement at 5 V logic-level drive. However, full RDS(on) performance (0.127 Ω) requires VGS = 10 V; operation at 5 V yields significantly higher on-resistance and increased conduction loss, limiting use to low-duty-cycle or low-current auxiliary functions.
Is SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification?
No, SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 is not recommended for synchronous rectification due to its unidirectional channel design and lack of optimized reverse conduction characteristics. Its fast body diode is intended for freewheeling-not bidirectional current control-and it lacks the low VSD and symmetric SOA required for SR gate timing precision and reliability.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHG25N60EFL-GE3?
The SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 has a maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of 0.5 °C/W, measured from die junction to the drain tab surface. This value assumes proper mounting with thermal compound and flat heatsink contact; actual system-level RthJA will vary significantly based on PCB copper area, heatsink fin density, and airflow.
How does the avalanche rating of SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 impact circuit protection design?
The SIHG25N60EFL-GE3 is rated for 353 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS), allowing it to safely absorb inductive energy during fault conditions like short-circuit turn-off or transformer saturation without immediate failure. This enables simplified protection schemes in UPS and welding inverters-reducing or eliminating external RCD snubbers-but does not replace active overcurrent detection for repetitive stress.
