Product details
Overview
SIHP22N65E-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 22 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω (max) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 110 nC (max), and EAS = 691 mJ - optimized for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP22N65E-GE3 datasheet, SIHP22N65E-GE3 pinout, SIHP22N65E-GE3 application, or SIHP22N65E-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness, low gate charge for ZVS/ZCS compatibility, thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.55 °C/W), and RoHS-compliant/halogen-free construction.
Technical Context
This 650 V superjunction MOSFET uses charge-balanced trench technology to achieve low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit (FOM), enabling reduced conduction and switching losses in hard-switched topologies. Its integral body diode supports continuous 22 A source-drain current with trr = 400 ns and Qrr = 5.9 μC at 25 °C.
The device is rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to 691 mJ and operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. Gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) is 2–4 V, ensuring robust turn-on margin with standard 10 V gate drivers while maintaining low leakage (IDSS ≤ 1 μA at 650 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 650 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with ≥30 % safety margin for transient overvoltage in telecom/server PSUs |
| RDS(on) max @ 10 V | 0.18 Ω - enables <1.98 W conduction loss at 11 A, critical for thermally constrained PFC boost stages |
| Qg max | 110 nC - reduces gate drive power and allows use of lower-cost 1-A peak gate drivers in 100–300 kHz SMPS |
| EAS | 691 mJ - ensures single-pulse avalanche survivability during output short-circuit or startup fault conditions |
| RthJC | 0.55 °C/W - permits 227 W dissipation with ≤125 °C case-to-ambient ΔT using standard TO-220 heatsink mounting |
| Ciss | 2415 pF - low input capacitance minimizes Miller effect and improves dv/dt immunity in high-side configurations |
| tr/tf | 33/38 ns - fast switching transitions reduce overlap loss in synchronous rectification and resonant converters |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-pin vertical lead frame. Mounting hole centered on tab for mechanical stability and thermal interface to heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level signal; requires <110 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±30 V rating) |
| D (Drain) | Main power output terminal | Connected to internal die backside; electrically tied to metal tab - must be insulated from heatsink unless system ground referenced |
| S (Source) | Power return / reference node | Common return path for load current and gate driver; defines local ground for gate drive loop; carries full 22 A continuous current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 19.8 Ω·nC - directly lowers total power loss in hard-switched converters operating above 100 kHz |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 691 mJ single-pulse energy - eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching applications |
| Ultra-low Qgd/Qg ratio | 29 % (32/110 nC) - suppresses Miller-induced false turn-on and improves noise immunity in high-dv/dt environments |
| RoHS-compliant & halogen-free | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 and JEDEC J-STD-020 - supports environmental compliance for industrial and telecom end equipment |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP22N65M5 | RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω (max), Qg = 95 nC, TO-247 package, no avalanche rating specified | Lacks UIS qualification; higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by ~5.5 % at 11 A | Prefer SIHP22N65E-GE3 where fault robustness and thermal performance are prioritized over gate drive simplicity |
| IXTH22N65X2 | RDS(on) = 0.17 Ω (max), Qg = 125 nC, TO-247 package, 100 % UIS tested | Higher Qg demands stronger gate driver; larger footprint limits board density | Choose SIHP22N65E-GE3 when TO-220AB form factor, lower Qg, and proven field reliability in telecom PFC are required |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP22N65E-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP22N65E-GE3 supports 14 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, per its absolute maximum ratings table. This derating from 22 A at 25 °C reflects thermal limitations of the TO-220AB package and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit. The linear derating factor is 1.8 W/°C beyond 100 °C case temperature.
Does SIHP22N65E-GE3 have an avalanche-rated specification, and what does it mean for circuit design?
Yes, SIHP22N65E-GE3 is fully avalanche-rated with EAS = 691 mJ (single-pulse, test condition: VDD = 50 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 7 A). This means the device can safely absorb inductive energy during unclamped switching events - eliminating the need for external snubbers in PFC and motor drive applications and improving system robustness against load dumps or short circuits.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SIHP22N65E-GE3, and how does it affect gate drive design?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SIHP22N65E-GE3 is specified as 2–4 V at ID = 250 μA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing sufficient margin against false triggering from noise. Designers should avoid marginal gate voltages (<6 V) to prevent partial enhancement and excessive RDS(on) - the device is characterized for full enhancement at VGS = 10 V.
How does the body diode performance of SIHP22N65E-GE3 compare to standard silicon diodes in freewheeling applications?
The SIHP22N65E-GE3 features an integrated body diode with VSD = 1.2 V (at IS = 11 A, TJ = 25 °C) and trr = 400 ns. While slower and higher forward drop than dedicated SiC Schottky diodes, its soft recovery and 5.9 μC Qrr minimize voltage overshoot and EMI in hard-switched freewheel paths - making it suitable for cost-sensitive PFC and motor drive applications where discrete diode replacement isn't required.
Is SIHP22N65E-GE3 compatible with lead-free soldering processes, and what is the maximum allowable peak temperature?
Yes, SIHP22N65E-GE3 is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020. The datasheet specifies a maximum peak soldering temperature of 300 °C for 10 seconds - consistent with standard Pb-free reflow profiles. Proper thermal profiling is essential to avoid exceeding the 150 °C maximum junction temperature during assembly.
