Product details
Overview
SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 19 A N-channel Power MOSFET in PowerPAK® 8 × 8 package with Kelvin source connection, optimized for high-efficiency SMPS and PFC stages. It delivers RDS(on) = 0.161 Ω (typ.) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 57 nC (typ.), and avalanche-rated EAS = 226 mJ - enabling reduced conduction and switching losses in telecom rectifiers and solar inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 pinout, SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 application, or SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its fast body diode (trr = 137 ns typ.), low Ciss = 2035 pF, Kelvin-source noise immunity, and 600 V VDS rating for high-voltage DC-link switching.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Vishay's E Series high-voltage MOSFETs featuring integrated Kelvin source terminal to isolate gate drive return path from high-current source return, minimizing gate loop inductance and improving switching stability under high dI/dt. Its low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit (≈9.1) targets efficiency-critical hard-switched topologies.
The MOSFET supports unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to 226 mJ and exhibits dV/dt ruggedness of 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C. Its body diode has VSD = 0.9 V (typ.) at IS = 11 A and Qrr = 0.8 μC (typ.), enabling reliable synchronous rectification and bidirectional current handling in bridge configurations.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW62N60M2 | 600 V, 62 A, RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω, no Kelvin source, TO-247 package | Higher current rating but larger footprint and higher Qg (120 nC); requires mechanical mounting and heatsink | Preferred for high-power industrial inverters where thermal mass outweighs layout density constraints |
| IXFH32N60P | 600 V, 32 A, RDS(on) = 0.135 Ω, TO-247, no Kelvin source, higher Ciss (2800 pF) | Lower RDS(on) but slower switching due to higher capacitance; lacks avalanche rating | Used in cost-sensitive 1–2 kW SMPS where EAS margin is less critical than conduction loss |
Compared with STW62N60M2 and IXFH32N60P, SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 offers superior gate drive efficiency and layout compactness via Kelvin source and PowerPAK 8 × 8, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-frequency PFC and telecom power supplies where switching loss dominates total loss.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 supports 12 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the PowerPAK 8 × 8 package and ensures safe operation when mounted on a 2-layer PCB with 2 oz copper and minimal thermal relief. At TC = 25 °C, the rating increases to 19 A.
Does SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 have a Kelvin source connection, and how is it implemented physically?
Yes, SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 features a dedicated Kelvin source terminal (Pin 2), separate from the main source (Pin 3). This design isolates the gate drive return path from high-current source return, reducing gate loop inductance and preventing false turn-on during fast switching. The Kelvin source must be connected directly to the gate driver ground, not to the power ground plane.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the body diode in SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3, and why does it matter?
The SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 body diode has Qrr = 0.8 μC (typ.) at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 11 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. This low value reduces recovery loss and associated EMI in hard-switched topologies like boost PFC and half-bridge converters, directly improving system efficiency and simplifying EMI filter design compared to devices with Qrr > 2 μC.
Can SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 be used in avalanche mode, and what is its rated single-pulse energy?
Yes, SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 is fully rated for unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 226 mJ (single pulse, TJ = 25 °C). This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD24-1 and allows safe operation during transient overloads - such as transformer saturation or short-circuit events - without requiring external avalanche clamping components in well-designed power stages.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3, and how does it affect drive circuit design?
The SIHH21N60EF-T1-GE3 has VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while maintaining noise immunity against spurious conduction near 0 V. This range avoids the risk of partial enhancement seen in logic-level MOSFETs and eliminates need for negative gate bias - simplifying driver design in high-noise industrial environments.
