Product details
Overview
SIHP065N60E-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 40 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring 0.057 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 74 nC total gate charge, and 226 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-designed for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies and PFC stages in telecom and server applications.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP065N60E-BE3 datasheet, SIHP065N60E-BE3 pinout, SIHP065N60E-BE3 application, or SIHP065N60E-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), reduced Coss(er) (93 pF), and rated dV/dt capability (100 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C) for robust hard-switching operation.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs 4th-generation silicon technology optimized for high-voltage power conversion. Its low effective output capacitance (Coss(er) = 93 pF) and fast switching parameters (td(on) typ. 28 ns, tf typ. 13 ns) reduce turn-on/turn-off losses in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC and LLC resonant topologies.
The device integrates an avalanche-rated body diode with trr = 382 ns (typ.) and Qrr = 7.1 μC at 25 °C, supporting ZVS-capable designs. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.5 °C/W enables high-power dissipation in compact heatsinked layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % safety margin for transient overvoltage |
| RDS(on) typ. | 0.057 Ω @ 10 V - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 16 A continuous drain current |
| Qg max | 74 nC - determines gate driver peak current requirement (~1.5 A for 50 ns rise time) |
| EAS | 226 mJ - ensures reliable unclamped inductive switching in PFC boost chokes |
| Coss(er) | 93 pF - reduces capacitive turn-on loss and improves efficiency in high-frequency SMPS |
| RthJC | 0.5 °C/W - allows 250 W power dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above case |
| VSD | 1.2 V @ IS = 16 A - defines forward drop and recovery loss in synchronous rectification or freewheeling |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-lead through-hole mounting. Pin assignment verified per Vishay S22-0949-Rev. E mechanical drawing and schematic symbol.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 10 V logic-level drive; input capacitance Ciss = 2700 pF affects driver sizing |
| D (Drain) | High-side power node | Connected to TO-220 tab; electrically isolated but thermally coupled to heatsink |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Common connection point for gate driver ground and current sense resistor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit | 4.2 nC·Ω - minimizes combined conduction and switching loss in 100–300 kHz PFC stages |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 226 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external snubbers in boost inductor failure scenarios |
| Reduced Coss(er) | 93 pF - cuts stored energy (Eoss) by >30 % vs. prior-gen 600 V MOSFETs at 480 V |
| Body diode trr & Qrr | 382 ns / 7.1 μC - enables soft-recovery in bridge-leg configurations without external Schottky |
| Lead (Pb)-free & halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's Green Standard 99912 |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW62N60M2 | RDS(on) = 0.055 Ω, Qg = 85 nC, Coss(er) = 110 pF, TO-247 package | Higher gate charge increases driver loss; larger TO-247 footprint requires PCB redesign | Preferred where higher avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 300 mJ) justifies layout change |
| IXFH60N60X | RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω, Qg = 65 nC, Coss(er) = 72 pF, TO-247 package | Lower Coss(er) improves light-load efficiency; higher RDS(on) raises conduction loss at >12 A | Selected when minimizing capacitive loss dominates over conduction loss in variable-frequency operation |
Compared with STW62N60M2 and IXFH60N60X, SIHP065N60E-BE3 offers optimal balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and industry-standard TO-220AB footprint-enabling drop-in replacement in existing 600 V power supply designs without thermal or layout compromise.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP065N60E-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP065N60E-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 25 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-220AB package and must be validated against actual heatsink performance and ambient conditions in the final design. The SIHP065N60E-BE3 maintains safe operation up to TJ = 150 °C under these conditions.
Does SIHP065N60E-BE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHP065N60E-BE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 3 V to 5 V, but it is characterized and specified for RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. Driving the SIHP065N60E-BE3 with only 5 V may result in incomplete turn-on and excessive conduction loss. A 10 V–15 V gate drive is required for full performance.
What is the significance of the "-BE3" suffix in SIHP065N60E-BE3?
The "-BE3" suffix indicates an alternate manufacturing location for the SIHP065N60E-BE3, consistent with Vishay's multi-site production strategy. Per Vishay documentation, all BE3 units meet identical electrical, thermal, and reliability specifications as the base SIHP065N60E, including RDS(on), Qg, and EAS. The SIHP065N60E-BE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free per Vishay Green Standard 99912.
How does the body diode performance of SIHP065N60E-BE3 compare to discrete fast recovery diodes?
The SIHP065N60E-BE3 body diode has trr = 382 ns (typ.) and Qrr = 7.1 μC at 25 °C, which is slower and higher-charge than dedicated ultrafast diodes but sufficient for non-critical freewheeling in hard-switched topologies. Unlike discrete diodes, the SIHP065N60E-BE3 body diode shares thermal coupling with the MOSFET die, enabling coordinated thermal management. It is not recommended for high-frequency synchronous rectification without external optimization.
Can SIHP065N60E-BE3 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, the SIHP065N60E-BE3 supports paralleling due to its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient, which promotes current sharing across devices. However, careful attention to gate loop inductance, source inductance matching, and individual gate resistor selection (e.g., 5–10 Ω) is required to prevent oscillation and ensure balanced dynamic current distribution. Layout symmetry is critical-each SIHP065N60E-BE3 must have identical trace lengths and thermal paths.
