Product details
Overview
SIHP14N60E-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 13 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.269 Ω (typ) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 32 nC (typ), and EAS = 136 mJ - optimized for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies and PFC stages in telecom and server applications.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP14N60E-BE3 datasheet, SIHP14N60E-BE3 pinout, SIHP14N60E-BE3 application, or SIHP14N60E-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), avalanche-rated ruggedness, and proven performance in 480 V DC bus switching with dV/dt capability up to 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized gate oxide and cell layout to achieve ultra-low gate charge and reduced Ciss (1205 pF typ) while maintaining robust 600 V blocking capability. Its body diode exhibits trr = 281 ns and Qrr = 3.4 μC under standardized conditions (IF = 7 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs).
The device operates with VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V, supports ±30 V gate drive, and delivers stable RDS(on) over temperature (ΔRDS(on)/°C confirmed via normalized curves). Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.85 °C/W enables high-power operation with minimal heatsink requirements in TO-220AB mounting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 480 V DC bus designs with 25 % voltage margin for transient clamping |
| RDS(on) typ | 0.269 Ω at VGS = 10 V, ID = 7 A - enables <1.3 W conduction loss at 7 A continuous current |
| Qg typ | 32 nC - reduces gate driver power demand and speeds switching transitions in hard-switched topologies |
| EAS | 136 mJ - ensures reliable unclamped inductive switching in PFC and motor drive fault conditions |
| Ciss | 1205 pF at VDS = 100 V - lowers Miller-induced turn-on risk and improves noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments |
| tr/tf | 19/15 ns typ - supports >200 kHz switching in resonant and phase-shifted full-bridge converters |
| RthJC | 0.85 °C/W - allows 147 W dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above case at steady state |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard through-hole mounting, and JEDEC-compliant footprint. Thermal pad on drain side requires mechanical and thermal interface to heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts 10 V logic-level drive; input capacitance Ciss = 1205 pF shapes gate loop design and snubber needs |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to heatsink tab; rated for 600 V blocking and 32 A pulsed current (IDM) |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Common source for gate drive and load current; body diode anode tied internally to S |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 8.6 Ω·nC - directly reduces total switching + conduction losses in high-frequency SMPS |
| Avalanche energy rating | 136 mJ single-pulse - eliminates need for external clamping in PFC boost inductor flyback recovery |
| Body diode Qrr | 3.4 μC - minimizes commutation loss and EMI during synchronous rectification or freewheeling |
| dV/dt ruggedness | 70 V/ns at TJ = 125 °C - prevents false turn-on in high-noise industrial inverters and welders |
| Lead (Pb)-free & halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization per doc#99912 |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP14NK60ZFP | 600 V, 14 A, RDS(on) = 0.33 Ω, Qg = 45 nC, no EAS rating specified | Lacks avalanche energy specification; higher conduction loss at same current | Prefer SIHP14N60E-BE3 where unclamped inductive stress is present (e.g., PFC, welder) |
| IXTH14N60L2 | 600 V, 14 A, RDS(on) = 0.28 Ω, Qg = 35 nC, EAS = 120 mJ, TO-247 package | Higher thermal resistance (RthJC ≈ 0.55 °C/W) but larger package; slightly lower EAS | Choose SIHP14N60E-BE3 for TO-220AB footprint compatibility and superior dV/dt immunity (70 vs. 50 V/ns) |
Compared with STP14NK60ZFP and IXTH14N60L2, SIHP14N60E-BE3 offers the lowest RDS(on) × Qg FOM among TO-220AB-packaged 600 V MOSFETs, verified avalanche ruggedness, and highest dV/dt rating - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability PFC and SMPS designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP14N60E-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP14N60E-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 8 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating from its 13 A rating at TC = 25 °C, based on a linear derating factor of 1.2 W/°C and RthJC = 0.85 °C/W. Engineers must verify heatsink design to maintain case temperature within limits for sustained 8 A operation.
Does SIHP14N60E-BE3 support logic-level gate drive?
No, SIHP14N60E-BE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, and it is characterized for RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. Full enhancement requires ≥10 V gate drive; operation below 8 V risks incomplete turn-on and excessive conduction loss. It is incompatible with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs without level-shifting or gate driver amplification.
What is the significance of the "-BE3" suffix in SIHP14N60E-BE3?
The "-BE3" suffix in SIHP14N60E-BE3 denotes an alternate manufacturing location compliant with Vishay's lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free standards. Per Vishay documentation, it shares identical electrical specifications, thermal performance, and mechanical dimensions with the base SIHP14N60E, and is fully interchangeable in design and assembly. No requalification is required when substituting SIHP14N60E-BE3 for SIHP14N60E-GE3 or other BE3/GE3 variants.
How does the body diode performance of SIHP14N60E-BE3 compare to standard FRDs?
The SIHP14N60E-BE3 body diode has VSD = 1.2 V at IS = 7 A and TJ = 25 °C, with trr = 281 ns and Qrr = 3.4 μC under standardized test conditions. While slower and higher-VF than dedicated fast recovery diodes (FRDs), its parameters are optimized for synchronous rectification and freewheeling in hard-switched converters - not for standalone diode replacement. Use requires careful dead-time management to avoid cross-conduction.
Is SIHP14N60E-BE3 suitable for use in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) circuits?
Yes, SIHP14N60E-BE3 is well-suited for ZVS circuits due to its low Ciss (1205 pF) and Coss (62 pF), which minimize resonant tank energy and improve soft-switching window predictability. Its 600 V rating and 136 mJ EAS provide margin for transient voltage spikes during ZVS transitions. Verified performance in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge topologies confirms robustness when operated with controlled gate timing and appropriate snubbing.
