Product details
Overview
SIHG47N65E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 47 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-247AC package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.072 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 273 nC, and avalanche-rated (EAS = 1410 mJ). It delivers low conduction and switching losses for high-efficiency server power supplies and solar PV inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHG47N65E-GE3 datasheet, SIHG47N65E-GE3 pinout, SIHG47N65E-GE3 application, or SIHG47N65E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 650 V VDS, 47 A continuous drain rating at TC = 25 °C, ultra-low gate charge, and robust unclamped inductive switching capability.
Technical Context
This E-Series MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage hard-switching topologies. Its low Ciss (5682 pF) and Coss (251 pF) reduce capacitive losses, while the 0.3 °C/W RthJC enables high-power thermal management in compact heatsink designs.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode with trr = 753–1506 ns and Qrr = 14–28 μC, supporting ZVS-capable PFC stages. Its dV/dt immunity of 37 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C ensures reliable operation in noisy industrial environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHG47N65E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHG47N65E-GE3 supports 30 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits imposed by the TO-247AC package's junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.3 °C/W and safe operating area constraints.
Does SIHG47N65E-GE3 have avalanche energy rating, and what is its value?
Yes, SIHG47N65E-GE3 is fully rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 1410 mJ, measured under standardized conditions (VDD = 50 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 10 A).
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in SIHG47N65E-GE3?
The body diode of SIHG47N65E-GE3 has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 753 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 24 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. The maximum specified value is 1506 ns, supporting soft-recovery behavior in PFC and inverter applications.
Is SIHG47N65E-GE3 compatible with standard TO-247AC heatsink mounting hardware?
Yes, SIHG47N65E-GE3 uses the JEDEC-standard TO-247AC outline with a metal drain tab designed for direct heatsink mounting. Mechanical drawings confirm compatibility with standard M3 screws and thermal interface materials, though electrical isolation is required unless the circuit design permits a common-drain configuration.
What gate-source voltage range is safe for continuous operation of SIHG47N65E-GE3?
The SIHG47N65E-GE3 supports continuous gate-source voltage operation between ±30 V, as defined in its Absolute Maximum Ratings. For reliable enhancement, VGS must exceed the threshold range of 2–4 V, with 10 V recommended for full RDS(on) specification compliance.
