Product details
Overview
SIHG35N60E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 32 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring 0.082 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 132 nC total gate charge, and 691 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - optimized for high-efficiency hard-switching PFC and SMPS stages in server power supplies and photovoltaic inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG35N60E-GE3 datasheet, SIHG35N60E-GE3 pinout, SIHG35N60E-GE3 application, or SIHG35N60E-GE3 equivalent, this device delivers verified low conduction loss (RDS(on)), ultra-low Qg/Qgd ratio, and rugged UIS-rated operation critical for telecom rectifiers, LED drivers, and industrial motor drives requiring stable 600 V switching performance.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology with optimized cell pitch to achieve 25 % lower specific on-resistance (mΩ·cm²) versus prior generations. Its low Ciss (2760 pF) and minimized Crss/Ciss ratio reduce Miller-induced turn-off delay and improve dV/dt immunity.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode rated for 32 A continuous source-drain current and 455–910 ns reverse recovery time (TJ = 25 °C), enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and freewheeling roles without external diode supplementation in many topologies.
Key Specifications

| ID continuous | 32 A at TC = 25 °C - defines maximum steady-state current under ideal thermal conditions |
| VGS(th) | 2–4 V - ensures clean turn-on with standard 10 V gate drive while avoiding spurious conduction near 0 V |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package: isolated drain tab (pins 2 & 4 electrically connected), non-isolated plastic body, 3.6 mm diameter mounting hole, 15.15 mm typical lead length, and 0.5 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Thermal pad optional per version.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | High-impedance input requiring low-charge driver; sensitive to ESD; connects to PWM controller output |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW35N60DM6 | 650 V VDS, 0.085 Ω RDS(on), 110 nC Qg, D2PAK package | Lower thermal resistance not achievable; requires PCB copper area instead of heatsink mounting | Preferred for space-constrained board-level designs where TO-247 mechanical mounting is impractical |
| IXFH35N60X3 | 600 V VDS, 0.080 Ω RDS(on), 105 nC Qg, TO-247AD package with isolated tab | Isolated drain tab eliminates need for insulating washer; slightly faster tf (28 ns) | Selected when electrical isolation between drain and heatsink is mandatory for safety or noise reasons |
Compared with STW35N60DM6 and IXFH35N60X3, SIHG35N60E-GE3 offers superior junction-to-case thermal transfer (0.5 °C/W vs. ≥1.2 °C/W) and higher avalanche energy (691 mJ vs. 420–550 mJ), making it optimal for thermally demanding industrial and renewable energy systems where heatsink coupling is available.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG35N60E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG35N60E-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 20 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating due to reduced heat dissipation capability at elevated case temperatures, and must be applied alongside RthJC = 0.5 °C/W to calculate actual junction temperature under operating conditions. The SIHG35N60E-GE3 maintains safe operation only when junction temperature remains ≤150 °C.
Does SIHG35N60E-GE3 support gate drive voltages below 10 V?
Yes - the SIHG35N60E-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 2–4 V, allowing functional turn-on with 5 V logic-level drive; however, RDS(on) increases significantly below 10 V (e.g., ~0.12 Ω at VGS = 8 V), raising conduction losses. Full performance (0.082 Ω typ.) is guaranteed only at VGS = 10 V, and the device is not classified as a logic-level MOSFET. The SIHG35N60E-GE3 should be driven with ≥10 V for optimal efficiency in high-power applications.
What is the significance of the "-GE3" suffix in SIHG35N60E-GE3?
The "-GE3" suffix denotes Vishay's lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free packaging per JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 3 moisture sensitivity level, with matte tin plating on leads and compliant molding compound. It confirms RoHS 2011/65/EU compliance and specifies the TO-247AC package variant with facility code Y or N per Vishay Package Document 91360. The SIHG35N60E-GE3 is not compatible with leaded solder reflow profiles and requires Pb-free assembly processes.
Can SIHG35N60E-GE3 replace older Vishay SiHF35N60E in existing designs?
Yes - the SIHG35N60E-GE3 is a direct drop-in replacement for SiHF35N60E, sharing identical TO-247AC package, pinout, absolute maximum ratings, and core electrical specifications (VDS, RDS(on), Qg, EAS). Key improvements include tighter RDS(on) distribution and enhanced UIS ruggedness. No PCB or gate drive changes are required when upgrading to SIHG35N60E-GE3, and the SIHG35N60E-GE3 maintains full backward compatibility in legacy PFC and SMPS designs.
How does the body diode performance of SIHG35N60E-GE3 impact its use in synchronous rectification?
The SIHG35N60E-GE3 body diode exhibits VSD = 0.9–1.2 V at 17 A and trr = 455–910 ns, which limits its effectiveness in high-frequency synchronous rectification due to recovery losses. While usable in quasi-resonant or low-frequency (<50 kHz) freewheeling, it is not optimized for ZVS/ZCS rectifier roles. For such applications, dedicated low-Qrr Schottky or SiC diodes are recommended alongside the SIHG35N60E-GE3 as the main switch.
