Product details
Overview
SIHP22N60AE-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 20 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.156 Ω (typ) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 48 nC (typ), and EAS = 204 mJ avalanche-rated operation - deployed in telecom power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP22N60AE-BE3 datasheet, SIHP22N60AE-BE3 pinout, SIHP22N60AE-BE3 application, or SIHP22N60AE-BE3 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance values (RthJC = 0.7 °C/W), body diode recovery metrics (trr = 319 ns), and real-world switching performance under 480 V/11 A conditions.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-voltage SMPS topologies. Its low Ciss (1451 pF) and ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio (25/48 nC) reduce Miller-induced turn-off delay and improve hard-switching efficiency in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC.
The device integrates an intrinsic fast-recovery body diode with trr = 319 ns (typ), Qrr = 4.9 μC, and dV/dt capability of 31 V/ns - enabling robust operation in bridge-leg configurations without external snubbers in solar inverters and motor drives.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % voltage margin for transient spikes in industrial PFC |
| RDS(on) typ @ 10 V | 0.156 Ω - enables ≤2.5 W conduction loss at 11 A continuous drain current |
| Qg max | 96 nC - sets minimum gate drive power requirement for 100 kHz switching at 10 V gate swing |
| EAS | 204 mJ - guarantees single-pulse unclamped inductive switching survival up to IAS = 3.8 A with L = 28.2 mH |
| trr | 319 ns (typ) - limits reverse recovery charge injection and associated shoot-through risk in half-bridge ZVS transitions |
| RthJC | 0.7 °C/W - allows 179 W power dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above 25 °C case temperature |
| Ciss | 1451 pF - determines input impedance and gate drive loop stability in high-frequency gate driver IC interfaces |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP22NM60ND | RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω (typ), Qg = 52 nC, TO-220FP package (lower PD = 110 W) | Lower power dissipation rating limits use in >1.2 kW continuous conduction mode PFC | Select when space-constrained layouts require smaller footprint and thermal load is ≤100 W |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP22N60AE-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 12 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-220AB package and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit. The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 maintains RDS(on) stability across this range due to its positive VDS temperature coefficient of 0.72 V/°C.
Does SIHP22N60AE-BE3 have a qualified avalanche rating, and how is it tested?
Yes, SIHP22N60AE-BE3 is fully rated for single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) at 204 mJ, tested per JEDEC JESD24-11 with VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 3.8 A. The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 passes this test without parameter degradation, confirming its suitability for inductive switching applications such as PFC and motor drives where voltage transients occur.
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in SIHP22N60AE-BE3, and under what conditions is it measured?
The typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the integral body diode in SIHP22N60AE-BE3 is 319 ns, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = IS = 11 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and VR = 25 V. This value is critical for evaluating commutation behavior in half-bridge and synchronous rectifier topologies. The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 also specifies Qrr = 4.9 μC under identical conditions.
Is SIHP22N60AE-BE3 lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, and which compliance standard does it meet?
Yes, SIHP22N60AE-BE3 is lead-free and halogen-free, compliant with the EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's internal Green Standard (document #99912). The "-BE3" suffix explicitly denotes Pb-free and halogen-free construction per Vishay's material categorization system. The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 undergoes full qualification per J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for surface-mount reflow compatibility.
What is the gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range for SIHP22N60AE-BE3, and how does it affect drive circuit design?
The gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHP22N60AE-BE3 is specified from 2 V to 4 V at ID = 250 μA, indicating consistent turn-on behavior across production lots. This range ensures reliable enhancement-mode operation with standard 10 V gate drivers while avoiding unintended conduction from noise. The SIHP22N60AE-BE3 requires ≥8 V VGS to achieve full RDS(on) specification, so drive circuits must maintain stable rail voltage under load.
