Product details
Overview
SIHP074N65E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 35 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring 0.070 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 53 nC typical total gate charge, and 173 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - optimized for high-efficiency server and telecom SMPS and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP074N65E-GE3 datasheet, SIHP074N65E-GE3 pinout, SIHP074N65E-GE3 application, or SIHP074N65E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), reduced Co(er) of 115 pF, and rated dv/dt capability of 100 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C for robust hard-switching operation.
Technical Context
This 4th-generation E-series MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized cell layout to minimize conduction and switching losses. Its low effective output capacitance (Co(er) = 115 pF) and fast reverse recovery (trr = 447 ns typ.) support high-frequency operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC and resonant LLC topologies.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 1.2 V forward voltage at 19 A and 25 A peak reverse recovery current, enabling reliable freewheeling in bridge-leg configurations without external diode supplementation in many industrial motor drive and solar inverter designs.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW65N65M5 | RDS(on) = 0.075 Ω, Qg = 62 nC, Co(er) = 130 pF - higher switching loss due to +13% Qg and +13% Co(er) | Same 650 V/35 A rating but less efficient in >150 kHz PFC; requires larger gate driver | Prefer SIHP074N65E-GE3 where efficiency >97.8% or gate drive current <1.2 A is required |
| IXTH76N65X2 | RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω, Qg = 105 nC, EAS = 220 mJ - lower RDS(on) but 98% higher Qg increases driver cost and loss | Better for avalanche-intensive welding supplies; overkill for telecom SMPS due to excessive Qg | Select SIHP074N65E-GE3 for balanced performance in high-volume server/telecom PSUs with tight thermal budgets |
Compared with STW65N65M5 and IXTH76N65X2, SIHP074N65E-GE3 delivers optimal trade-off between conduction loss (0.070 Ω), switching loss (53 nC Qg, 115 pF Co(er)), and ruggedness (173 mJ EAS) - making it the preferred choice for cost-sensitive, high-efficiency 650 V power conversion where gate drive simplicity and thermal headroom are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP074N65E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP074N65E-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 24 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits under real-world heatsink conditions and must be used with RthJC = 0.5 °C/W to calculate junction temperature rise. The SIHP074N65E-GE3 maintains safe operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Does SIHP074N65E-GE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHP074N65E-GE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 3.0 V to 5.0 V, and RDS(on) is specified at VGS = 10 V. It requires a 10 V gate drive for full enhancement and minimal on-resistance. Using 5 V logic drive results in significantly elevated RDS(on) and unacceptable conduction loss. The SIHP074N65E-GE3 must be driven with a dedicated 10–15 V gate driver.
What is the body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of SIHP074N65E-GE3, and why does it matter?
The SIHP074N65E-GE3 has a reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of 7–14 μC, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 19 A, and di/dt = 100 A/μs. This parameter directly impacts switching loss and EMI during commutation in bridge circuits. Lower Qrr reduces turn-off loss and diode-induced voltage spikes. The SIHP074N65E-GE3's Qrr enables clean zero-voltage switching (ZVS) transitions in soft-switched topologies.
Can SIHP074N65E-GE3 replace older 600 V MOSFETs in existing designs?
SIHP074N65E-GE3 is not a direct drop-in replacement for 600 V devices due to its higher 650 V VDS rating and different RDS(on)/Qg profile. While pin-compatible with TO-220AB footprints, system-level validation is required for gate drive timing, snubber sizing, and thermal margin - especially in legacy 600 V designs operating near breakdown. The SIHP074N65E-GE3 offers improved ruggedness but may require minor layout review.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHP074N65E-GE3?
The maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) for SIHP074N65E-GE3 is 0.5 °C/W, as stated in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table. This value applies to the drain-connected TO-220AB metal tab and assumes proper mounting with thermal interface material and adequate heatsink contact pressure. The SIHP074N65E-GE3's low RthJC enables high-power dissipation with minimal temperature rise - critical for compact, fanless power supplies.
