Product details
Overview
SIHG33N60E-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 33 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.099 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, Qg = 150 nC max, and avalanche-rated (EAS = 793 mJ), designed for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG33N60E-E3 datasheet, SIHG33N60E-E3 pinout, SIHG33N60E-E3 application, or SIHG33N60E-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg), robust unclamped inductive switching capability, and thermal resistance RthJC = 0.45 °C/W for high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized gate charge distribution (Qgs = 24 nC, Qgd = 42 nC) to reduce switching losses in hard-switched topologies. Its Ciss = 3508 pF and low Crss = 6 pF support fast, controllable turn-on/turn-off transitions under high dV/dt conditions up to 70 V/ns.
The device integrates a co-packaged body diode with trr = 1006 ns max and Qrr = 17 μC, enabling reliable operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC and resonant converters where diode recovery behavior critically impacts EMI and efficiency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified rails with ≥20 % margin for surge and ripple |
| RDS(on) max | 0.099 Ω @ 10 V - enables ≤1.1 W conduction loss at 33 A DC, suitable for 500–1000 W power stages |
| Qg max | 150 nC - determines gate drive power requirement (~1.5 mW per MHz at 10 V drive) |
| EAS | 793 mJ - ensures single-pulse ruggedness during output short-circuit or startup faults without derating |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW33NM60ND | 600 V, 33 A, RDS(on) = 0.095 Ω, Qg = 120 nC, TO-247 long leads | Lower Qg improves light-load efficiency but reduced EAS (520 mJ) limits fault tolerance | Prefer when gate drive loss dominates and avalanche stress is low |
| IXTH30N60L2 | 600 V, 30 A, RDS(on) = 0.11 Ω, Qg = 95 nC, TO-247 non-isolated | Lower Qg and faster trr (500 ns), but lower current rating and no avalanche rating | Choose for higher-frequency ZVS/ZCS topologies where ruggedness is managed externally |
Compared with STW33NM60ND and IXTH30N60L2, SIHG33N60E-E3 offers superior avalanche ruggedness and higher continuous current, making it preferred for industrial and telecom power supplies where reliability under transient overload is critical-despite slightly higher Qg.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG33N60E-E3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG33N60E-E3 supports 21 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-247AC package and must be validated against actual board layout, heatsink interface, and ambient airflow in the final design. The SIHG33N60E-E3 datasheet confirms this value under VGS = 10 V conditions.
Does SIHG33N60E-E3 have a fully rated avalanche capability, and what is the test condition?
Yes, SIHG33N60E-E3 is fully rated for single-pulse unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 793 mJ. The test condition is VDD = 50 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 7.5 A, per Note b in the datasheet. This rating applies directly to the SIHG33N60E-E3 and is not extrapolated from other variants.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHG33N60E-E3, and how does it affect drive circuit design?
The gate threshold voltage VGS(th) for SIHG33N60E-E3 is 2.0–4.0 V at VDS = VGS and ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while avoiding unintended conduction from noise. Designers must ensure gate drive voltage exceeds 4.0 V to guarantee full enhancement; the SIHG33N60E-E3 specification sheet confirms this min/max spread applies to all units.
How does the body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of SIHG33N60E-E3 impact PFC boost converter design?
The SIHG33N60E-E3 body diode has Qrr = 8.5–17 μC, which directly influences boost diode selection, dead-time optimization, and EMI filter sizing in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC. Higher Qrr increases switching loss and voltage overshoot during recovery; the SIHG33N60E-E3 datasheet specifies this parameter at TJ = 25 °C, IF = IS, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 20 V.
Is SIHG33N60E-E3 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, and what does the "-E3" suffix indicate?
Yes, SIHG33N60E-E3 is lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant, as confirmed by Vishay's material declarations. The "-E3" suffix specifically denotes lead-free termination with matte tin plating, per Vishay's ordering nomenclature in document S24-0062. It is not halogen-free; that variant is designated "-GE3". This distinction is explicitly defined in the Ordering Information section of the SIHG33N60E-E3 datasheet.
