Product details
Overview
SIR164DP-T1-GE3 from Vishay is an N-channel 30 V (D-S) TrenchFET® Gen III power MOSFET in PowerPAK® SO-8 package, delivering RDS(on) = 2.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and 3.2 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, with 40.6 nC total gate charge and 50 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C - optimized for high-efficiency DC/DC conversion in notebook CPU core power stages.
For engineers reviewing the SIR164DP-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIR164DP-T1-GE3 pinout, SIR164DP-T1-GE3 application, or SIR164DP-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low RDS(on) at 4.5 V drive, 100 % Rg and UIS tested reliability, thermal performance matching DPAK (RthJC = 1.2 °C/W), and compatibility with standard SO-8 PCB footprints while enabling higher current density than legacy SO-8 packages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs TrenchFET® Gen III silicon technology specifically engineered to reduce ringing in high-frequency switching applications, with verified unclamped inductive switching (UIS) robustness and gate resistance (Rg = 0.2–1.6 Ω) optimized for controlled turn-on/turn-off timing. Its dynamic parameters - Ciss = 3950 pF, Coss = 740 pF, Crss = 460 pF - support stable operation in synchronous buck converters operating up to several MHz.
The PowerPAK® SO-8 package features an exposed copper drain pad on the bottom surface, providing a direct low-thermal-resistance path from junction to PCB (RthJC = 1.2 °C/W typical), and maintains identical pinout and footprint to standard SO-8 - enabling drop-in replacement without layout changes while delivering DPAK-level thermal performance in a smaller, lower-profile form factor.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - maximum drain-source blocking voltage suitable for 12 V input DC/DC systems with margin against transients |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 2.5 mΩ - enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A, critical for high-current CPU core rails |
| RDS(on) @ 4.5 V | 3.2 mΩ - ensures low on-resistance under logic-level gate drive from modern controllers |
| Qg typ. | 40.6 nC - balances switching speed and gate driver loading in 300–1000 kHz buck converters |
| ID cont. @ TC = 25 °C | 50 A - supports high-phase-count multiphase VRMs with minimal parallel devices |
| RthJC | 1.2 °C/W - matches DPAK thermal capability, allowing >40 W power dissipation with modest heatsinking |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR174DP-T1-GE3 | Same PowerPAK SO-8 package; higher RDS(on) = 3.0 mΩ @ 10 V; lower Qg = 32.5 nC | Better suited for ultra-high-frequency (>1 MHz) designs where gate drive loss dominates | Select when prioritizing switching loss reduction over conduction loss in light-to-moderate load conditions |
| IRLHS6342TRPBF | SO-8 package; RDS(on) = 3.1 mΩ @ 4.5 V; no 100 % UIS test; RthJC = 2.0 °C/W | Lower thermal performance limits continuous current to ~40 A at same board conditions | Acceptable for cost-sensitive, lower-power applications where thermal headroom is ample |
Compared with SIR164DP-T1-GE3, SiR174DP-T1-GE3 trades 20 % higher conduction loss for 20 % lower gate charge - advantageous in high-frequency, low-duty-cycle operation - while IRLHS6342TRPBF offers similar RDS(on) but lacks UIS validation and delivers 67 % higher junction-to-case thermal resistance, limiting usable power in thermally constrained layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIR164DP-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SIR164DP-T1-GE3 supports 50 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating reflects package-limited conduction capability under steady-state thermal conditions and assumes proper PCB copper area and thermal vias to maintain case temperature at or below 70 °C. The device's 1.2 °C/W RthJC enables this current level with appropriate board-level heatsinking.
Does SIR164DP-T1-GE3 support logic-level gate drive, and what is its RDS(on) at 4.5 V?
Yes, SIR164DP-T1-GE3 is fully logic-level compatible, with RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ maximum at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 10 A. This specification ensures low on-resistance when driven directly by standard 5 V or 4.5 V PWM controllers or integrated drivers without requiring level-shifting circuitry - a key requirement for modern high-efficiency CPU core VRMs.
Is SIR164DP-T1-GE3 pin-compatible with standard SO-8 MOSFETs, and can it be used on existing SO-8 footprints?
Yes, SIR164DP-T1-GE3 uses the PowerPAK® SO-8 package, which maintains identical pinout, dimensions, and solder pad layout as the standard SO-8. It is designed for direct substitution on existing SO-8 land patterns - though optimal thermal performance requires extending the drain pad copper area per Vishay Application Note AN821 and recommended minimum pads in AN826.
What is the body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of SIR164DP-T1-GE3, and why does it matter in synchronous rectification?
The SIR164DP-T1-GE3 has Qrr = 22 nC typical at IF = 10 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and TJ = 25 °C. In synchronous buck converters, low Qrr minimizes energy loss and voltage overshoot during the body diode's reverse recovery period - directly improving efficiency and reducing EMI, especially during light-load discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) transitions.
How is thermal performance of SIR164DP-T1-GE3 characterized, and what is its junction-to-case thermal resistance?
SIR164DP-T1-GE3 has a typical junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance RthJC of 1.2 °C/W under steady-state conditions, matching DPAK performance. This value is measured with the device mounted on an infinite heat sink and reflects the intrinsic thermal path from die to the exposed drain pad. Real-world PCB thermal performance depends on copper area, layer count, and via design - with documented improvements of up to 40 % over standard SO-8 when using optimized layouts.
