Product details
Overview
SIHP4N80E-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an 800 V, 4.3 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring 1.1 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 32 nC total gate charge, and 56 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - designed for high-voltage switching in PFC and SMPS stages of server and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SIHP4N80E-BE3 datasheet, SIHP4N80E-BE3 pinout, SIHP4N80E-BE3 application, or SIHP4N80E-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V VDS, low Qg/RDS(on) figure-of-merit, UIS-rated ruggedness, and TO-220AB thermal performance (RthJC = 1.8 °C/W) for reliable conduction and switching loss management.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology optimized for high-voltage hard-switching applications. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) ensures robust noise immunity while enabling standard 10 V gate drive compatibility, and its low Ciss (622 pF) and Coss (34 pF) support fast, efficient switching at elevated bus voltages up to 480 V.
The integrated body diode exhibits 248 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) and 1.4 μC Qrr at 25 °C, with rated diode forward current (IS = 4.4 A) and pulsed capability (ISM = 11 A), making it suitable for freewheeling and synchronous rectification roles where controlled recovery is required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 800 V - supports DC-link operation in 400 V AC-input PFC and 600 V DC bus SMPS without derating |
| RDS(on) typ | 1.1 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - enables <4.3 W conduction loss at 2 A continuous drain current |
| Qg max | 32 nC - reduces gate drive power and enables use with low-current drivers in high-frequency designs |
| EAS | 56 mJ - provides validated unclamped inductive switching margin for flyback and resonant topologies |
| RthJC | 1.8 °C/W - allows 69 W power dissipation with ≤125 °C case-to-ambient ΔT under heatsink mounting |
| Ciss | 622 pF - limits Miller-induced turn-on risk and eases gate driver sizing for 100–500 kHz operation |
| ID cont @ TC=100°C | 2.7 A - defines usable current envelope in thermally constrained industrial enclosures |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-lead through-hole mounting, and JEDEC-compliant outline for mechanical interchangeability and heatsink attachment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level drive; 1.2 Ω typical gate input resistance minimizes ringing with 9.1 Ω external gate resistor |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to TO-220AB metal tab; electrically tied to drain; requires isolation from heatsink unless system ground referenced |
| S (Source) | Power return and reference node | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; carries full load current and body diode reverse recovery current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) × Qg FOM | 35.2 Ω·nC - improves efficiency trade-off between conduction and switching losses in 100–300 kHz PFC stages |
| Avalanche-rated (UIS) | 56 mJ single-pulse rating - eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching and fault transients |
| Low Ciss and Coss | 622 pF / 34 pF - reduces capacitive loading on gate driver and minimizes stored output energy (Eoss = 0.5·Coss·V²) |
| Enhanced body diode recovery | trr = 248 ns, Qrr = 1.4 μC - lowers diode switching loss and EMI in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP4NK80ZFP | 800 V, 4 A, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω, Qg = 25 nC, TO-220FP package (full-pack) | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by ~27%; lower Qg improves switching speed but reduces drive robustness | Prefer when space-constrained layouts require insulated package; avoid where thermal margin is tight |
| IXTP4N80L | 800 V, 4 A, RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω, Qg = 28 nC, TO-220AB, logic-level (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.5 V) | Lower gate threshold enables 5 V drive but increases susceptibility to noise-induced turn-on; slightly higher RDS(on) | Select only with dedicated gate protection circuitry; not drop-in for 10 V gate drive systems |
Compared with STP4NK80ZFP and IXTP4N80L, SIHP4N80E-BE3 delivers the lowest RDS(on) × Qg FOM among TO-220AB 800 V MOSFETs, offering superior thermal efficiency in thermally demanding PFC and SMPS applications without requiring gate drive redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIHP4N80E-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SIHP4N80E-BE3 has a maximum continuous drain current (ID) of 2.7 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating from its 4.3 A rating at 25 °C, based on a linear derating factor of 0.56 W/°C and RthJC = 1.8 °C/W. Designers must verify heatsink performance to maintain case temperature within this limit during sustained operation.
Does SIHP4N80E-BE3 support 10 V gate drive, and what is its gate threshold voltage range?
Yes, SIHP4N80E-BE3 is fully compatible with 10 V gate drive. Its gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) is specified from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at ID = 250 μA, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard logic-level or microcontroller-driven gate drivers. The 1.1 Ω typical gate input resistance further stabilizes switching behavior under typical PCB layout parasitics.
Is SIHP4N80E-BE3 avalanche-rated, and what is its single-pulse energy rating?
Yes, SIHP4N80E-BE3 is fully rated for unclamped inductive switching (UIS). Its single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) is 56 mJ under test conditions of VDD = 140 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 2.0 A. This rating validates its ruggedness in flyback, LLC, and other topologies subject to inductive energy dump.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIHP4N80E-BE3, and how does it impact heatsink design?
The SIHP4N80E-BE3 has a maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of 1.8 °C/W. This low value enables efficient heat transfer from the die to the heatsink via the TO-220AB drain-connected tab. For example, at 69 W maximum power dissipation, a 1.8 °C/W RthJC implies only a 124 °C junction-to-case temperature rise - allowing safe operation below the 150 °C TJ max when paired with appropriate heatsinking.
How does the body diode performance of SIHP4N80E-BE3 compare to standard MOSFETs in freewheeling applications?
The SIHP4N80E-BE3 features an optimized body diode with 248 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) and 1.4 μC Qrr at 25 °C, significantly better than legacy 800 V MOSFETs. Its 4.4 A continuous source-drain current rating and 11 A pulsed capability support robust freewheeling in DCM boost and flyback converters, reducing diode-related switching loss and EMI without requiring external Schottky supplementation.
