Product details
Overview
SIHG28N65EF-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 28 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring fast body diode, ultra-low gate charge (97 nC typ.), and low RDS(on) of 0.102 Ω at VGS = 10 V. It is engineered for high-efficiency, high-frequency switching in telecom power supplies, solar inverters, and LLC resonant converters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG28N65EF-GE3 datasheet, SIHG28N65EF-GE3 pinout, SIHG28N65EF-GE3 application, or SIHG28N65EF-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 427 mJ avalanche energy rating, 174 ns reverse recovery time, 3249 pF input capacitance, and suitability for zero-voltage switching topologies requiring robust body diode performance.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs optimized silicon process and cell layout to reduce Qrr (1.1 μC typ.) and trr (174 ns typ.), enabling lower switching losses in hard- and soft-switching applications. Its low Ciss/Coss ratio and 0.5 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance support high-power density designs.
The device integrates an avalanche-rated body diode with controlled dV/dt capability (11 V/ns) and operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. Gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) and ±30 V gate-source rating ensure compatibility with standard 10 V gate drivers and robust noise immunity.
Key Specifications

| VDS max | 650 V - Supports 400 V AC rectified bus with 30 % margin for transient overvoltage in PV inverters and telecom SMPS. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 0.102 Ω @ 10 V - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 14 A DC, critical for thermal management in compact 250 W packages. |
| Qg typ. | 97 nC - Reduces gate drive power and allows use of smaller, lower-cost gate drivers in high-frequency (>100 kHz) operation. |
| trr | 174 ns - Minimizes commutation loss and EMI in phase-shifted bridge and LLC topologies with fast diode recovery. |
| EAS | 427 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events without failure, supporting rugged design in welding and battery charger circuits. |
| Ciss | 3249 pF - Low input capacitance improves Miller immunity and enables stable switching with moderate gate resistance (9.1 Ω). |
| ID cont. | 28 A @ TC = 25 °C - Delivers high current capability in forced-air or heatsink-cooled industrial power stages. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-247AC - Industry-standard high-voltage, high-current through-hole package with isolated drain tab, 0.5 °C/W RthJC, and lead (Pb)-free/halogen-free finish per JEDEC outline.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW28N65M5 | 650 V, 28 A, RDS(on) = 0.115 Ω, Qg = 105 nC, trr = 220 ns - higher Qrr and slower diode recovery. | Less suitable for high-frequency LLC where diode recovery dominates loss; better for cost-sensitive 65 kHz flyback. | Select STW28N65M5 only when diode speed is non-critical and gate drive strength exceeds 2 A peak. |
| IXFH28N65X3 | 650 V, 28 A, RDS(on) = 0.105 Ω, Qg = 85 nC, trr = 140 ns - lower Qg but tighter VGS(th) tolerance (2.5–3.5 V). | Better for low-duty-cycle burst-mode operation due to faster trr; less tolerant of gate noise in noisy industrial environments. | Choose IXFH28N65X3 when optimizing for minimum switching loss below 100 kHz and gate drive is well-filtered. |
Compared with STW28N65M5 and IXFH28N65X3, SIHG28N65EF-GE3 offers the best balance of diode speed (174 ns), gate charge (97 nC), and avalanche ruggedness (427 mJ), making it preferred for ZVS-enabled telecom and solar systems where reliability under transient stress is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG28N65EF-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG28N65EF-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 18 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the TO-247AC package and ensures safe operation within its 250 W maximum power dissipation limit. Engineers must verify heatsink design to maintain TC ≤ 100 °C under full load to sustain this current level reliably.
Does SIHG28N65EF-GE3 support gate drive voltages below 10 V?
Yes, SIHG28N65EF-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 2.0–4.0 V, allowing operation with gate drive voltages as low as 5 V. However, RDS(on) increases significantly below 10 V - e.g., at VGS = 5 V, RDS(on) is not characterized and may exceed 0.25 Ω. For guaranteed 0.102 Ω performance and low switching loss, 10 V gate drive is recommended per the SIHG28N65EF-GE3 datasheet specifications.
Is SIHG28N65EF-GE3 suitable for use in phase-shifted bridge (PSB) topologies?
Yes, SIHG28N65EF-GE3 is explicitly qualified for phase-shifted bridge applications, as confirmed in its Applications section and dynamic parameter characterization. Its fast body diode (trr = 174 ns), low Qrr (1.1 μC), and 70 V/ns dV/dt rating enable reliable ZVS operation and minimize circulating current loss during dead-time intervals in PSB converters.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHG28N65EF-GE3?
The SIHG28N65EF-GE3 has a maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of 0.5 °C/W, measured from junction to the drain tab. This low value enables efficient heat transfer to external heatsinks and is critical for maintaining TJ ≤ 150 °C in high-power-density designs. The value is validated per JEDEC test conditions and applies to the TO-247AC package with proper mounting pressure and thermal interface material.
Can SIHG28N65EF-GE3 replace older generation 650 V MOSFETs like the SIHP28N60E in existing designs?
SIHG28N65EF-GE3 is not a direct drop-in replacement for SIHP28N60E due to differences in voltage rating (650 V vs. 600 V), gate charge profile, and body diode characteristics. While both share TO-247AC packaging and pinout, the SIHG28N65EF-GE3's lower Qg and faster trr require gate drive tuning. System-level validation of switching waveforms, thermal performance, and avalanche behavior is required before substitution in legacy designs.
