Product details
Overview
SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 24 A N-channel Power MOSFET in PowerPAK® 8 × 8 package with 0.120 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 44 nC total gate charge, and avalanche-rated operation-designed for high-efficiency server power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 pinout, SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 application, or SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), Kelvin source configuration for reduced switching loss, and 56 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy rating under standardized test conditions.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs 4th-generation silicon technology optimized for hard-switched SMPS topologies. Its low effective output capacitance (Co(er) = 57 pF) and reduced Coss (76 pF) minimize capacitive turn-off losses, while the Kelvin source connection isolates gate drive return from high-current source paths to improve switching control fidelity.
The device features a 600 V VDS rating with ±30 V VGS tolerance, 156 W maximum power dissipation, and RthJC = 0.57 °C/W-enabling high-current operation in thermally constrained industrial and telecom power modules when mounted on adequately sized copper areas.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports primary-side switching in 400 V DC bus PFC and 380 V telecom rectified inputs without derating |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.106 Ω at VGS = 10 V, ID = 12 A - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 12 A continuous current |
| Qg max | 44 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~2.2 A peak for 20 ns rise time with 10 V swing) |
| EAS | 56 mJ - rated unclamped inductive switching energy ensures robustness during transient overloads in motor drives and welders |
| Co(er) | 57 pF - energy-equivalent output capacitance directly impacts turn-off loss (Eoff ∝ VDS² × Co(er)) |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +150 °C - qualified for extended thermal operation in sealed industrial enclosures and outdoor PV inverters |
| RthJC | 0.57 °C/W - allows ~110 W dissipation with 63 °C case-to-ambient ΔT, supporting high-power density designs |
Pinout & Package
SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 uses the PowerPAK® 8 × 8 surface-mount package (8.0 mm × 8.0 mm × 1.0 mm), featuring exposed drain pad for thermal performance and four terminals: gate (Pin 1), Kelvin source (Pin 2), power source (Pin 3), and drain (Pin 4).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Main gate control terminal; connects to driver IC output with low-inductance trace to minimize ringing |
| Pin 2 | Kelvin Source | Separate low-current source return for gate driver feedback-eliminates voltage drop error in gate drive loop |
| Pin 3 | Power Source | High-current source path; soldered to large PCB copper pour for current conduction and thermal spreading |
| Pin 4 | Drain | Exposed drain pad (bottom side); must be connected to system ground plane or heatsink for thermal and electrical performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 4th-generation E-series silicon | Reduces RDS(on) × Qg FOM by >25% vs. prior generation-directly lowering combined switching and conduction loss |
| Kelvin source configuration | Enables precise gate voltage control independent of source inductance-critical for stable operation above 100 kHz |
| Avalanche energy rating | 56 mJ single-pulse (VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω)-provides margin against inductive kickback in motor and welding circuits |
| Low Co(er) | 57 pF - cuts stored output energy (E = ½CV²) by ~40% vs. comparable 600 V MOSFETs, reducing turn-off loss at 480 V bus |
| Pb-free and halogen-free | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709C-ensures compliance for global industrial and telecom deployments |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW62N60M2 | 600 V, 62 A, RDS(on) = 0.075 Ω, Qg = 72 nC, TO-247 package | Higher current rating but larger footprint and higher gate charge-requires stronger gate driver and more board area | Preferred where higher continuous current (>30 A) and through-hole mounting are acceptable |
| IXFH32N60P | 600 V, 32 A, RDS(on) = 0.185 Ω, Qg = 52 nC, TO-247 package | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss; lacks Kelvin source and avalanche rating | Suitable for cost-sensitive non-avalanche applications where thermal margin exists and layout space permits TO-247 |
Compared with STW62N60M2 and IXFH32N60P, SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 delivers superior power density via its PowerPAK 8 × 8 footprint, lower switching loss due to Kelvin source and 44 nC Qg, and guaranteed avalanche ruggedness-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability SMPS designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 has a maximum continuous drain current (ID) of 15 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design with adequate copper area and airflow. At 25 °C case temperature, the rating increases to 24 A. Derating follows a linear factor of 1.25 W/°C beyond 100 °C case temperature.
Does SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 3.0 V to 5.0 V, and it is characterized for RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. Driving it reliably requires a gate voltage ≥10 V; operation at 5 V will result in significantly elevated RDS(on) and thermal risk. The SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 datasheet does not specify parameters for VGS ≤ 5 V.
What is the purpose of the Kelvin source (Pin 2) on SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3?
The Kelvin source (Pin 2) on SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 provides a dedicated low-current return path for the gate driver's source reference-separating it from the high-current power source (Pin 3). This eliminates voltage drop errors caused by source inductance during fast switching, ensuring accurate gate voltage control and preventing spurious turn-on. It must be routed separately from Pin 3 and connected directly to the driver IC's source pin.
Is SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 suitable for avalanche operation in production designs?
Yes, SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 is explicitly rated for unclamped inductive switching with EAS = 56 mJ under defined test conditions (VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 2 A). This rating validates its ruggedness for controlled avalanche use in motor drives, welders, and other inductive load applications-provided layout minimizes stray inductance and thermal limits are observed per the SOA curve.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3?
The SIHH120N60E-T1-GE3 has a typical junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance (RthJC) of 0.57 °C/W, with a maximum of 0.80 °C/W. This value applies to heat flow from the silicon die to the exposed drain pad (Pin 4). Effective thermal performance requires soldering the drain pad to a minimum 200 mm² copper area (2 oz) with ≥4 thermal vias to inner ground planes, as recommended in Vishay document 68441.
