Product details
Overview
SIR474DP-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 30 V TrenchFET® power MOSFET in PowerPAK® SO-8 package, optimized for high-side synchronous rectification in notebook CPU core power stages. It delivers RDS(on) = 9.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, 12.0 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, 20 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C), and 8 nC total gate charge - enabling high-efficiency, space-constrained DC-DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the SIR474DP-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIR474DP-T1-GE3 pinout, SIR474DP-T1-GE3 application, or SIR474DP-T1-GE3 equivalent, this page provides verified thermal resistance (RthJC = 3.5 °C/W), body diode recovery (trr = 14–28 ns), avalanche rating (EAS = 20 mJ), and PowerPAK SO-8 footprint compatibility with standard SO-8 land patterns - critical for notebook VRM layout validation and thermal derating analysis.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching dynamics. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.2 V) supports 4.5 V logic-level drive, while its low Qg (8 nC typ. at 4.5 V) minimizes turn-on losses in high-frequency synchronous buck converters.
The PowerPAK SO-8 package features exposed copper drain pads on the bottom side for direct thermal conduction to the PCB, delivering RthJC = 3.5 °C/W (typ.) and RthJA = 27 °C/W (typ., t ≤ 10 s), matching DPAK thermal performance within an SO-8 footprint - essential for thermally constrained notebook CPU core rail designs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR472DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 11.5 mΩ @ 10 V (vs. 9.5 mΩ); Qg = 7.5 nC @ 4.5 V (vs. 8 nC); same PowerPAK SO-8 package. | Slightly higher conduction loss but marginally faster switching; suitable where gate drive strength is limited. | Select SiR472DP-T1-GE3 only if system-level testing confirms acceptable thermal rise at 18 A continuous load. |
| IRF7470PBF | SO-8 package (not PowerPAK); RDS(on) = 12.5 mΩ @ 10 V; RthJC = 16 °C/W (vs. 3.5 °C/W); no exposed drain pad. | Higher thermal resistance limits usable current to ~12 A on standard FR4; requires larger PCB copper area for equivalent cooling. | IRF7470PBF is viable only in non-thermally constrained designs where board space allows extended copper pours or forced air cooling. |
Compared with SiR472DP-T1-GE3, SIR474DP-T1-GE3 offers lower RDS(on) for reduced conduction loss in high-current CPU core rails; versus IRF7470PBF, it delivers 4.6× lower RthJC, enabling 67% higher current density without thermal derating - critical for ultra-thin notebook platforms.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SIR474DP-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for SIR474DP-T1-GE3 is 20 A at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design with adequate copper area on the drain pad to maintain junction temperature ≤ 150 °C. The SIR474DP-T1-GE3 achieves this via its PowerPAK SO-8 package's low RthJC of 3.5 °C/W, enabling sustained 20 A operation without external heatsinking in well-designed layouts.
Does SIR474DP-T1-GE3 support 4.5 V gate drive in synchronous buck applications?
Yes, SIR474DP-T1-GE3 is fully characterized for 4.5 V gate drive, with RDS(on) = 12.0 mΩ max at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 7 A. Its VGS(th) range of 1.0–2.2 V ensures reliable turn-on with standard 4.5 V logic-level controllers used in notebook VRMs. The SIR474DP-T1-GE3 also exhibits low Qg (8 nC typ. at 4.5 V), minimizing gate drive losses and enabling stable operation at switching frequencies up to 1.5 MHz.
How does the PowerPAK SO-8 package of SIR474DP-T1-GE3 compare thermally to standard SO-8 MOSFETs?
The PowerPAK SO-8 package of SIR474DP-T1-GE3 delivers RthJC = 3.5 °C/W (typ.), which is 4.6× lower than the ~16 °C/W of standard SO-8 packages. This is achieved via an exposed copper drain pad on the bottom side that directly couples heat to the PCB. As a result, the SIR474DP-T1-GE3 maintains junction temperatures up to 43 °C cooler than a standard SO-8 MOSFET under identical 2.7 W dissipation - directly improving RDS(on) stability and system efficiency.
Is SIR474DP-T1-GE3 suitable for use as a synchronous rectifier in USB-C PD adapters?
Yes, SIR474DP-T1-GE3 is validated for secondary-side synchronous rectification in USB-C PD adapters, particularly in active clamp flyback and LLC topologies. Its low VSD (0.76–1.1 V), fast trr (14–28 ns), and 20 mJ EAS rating enable efficient replacement of Schottky diodes at 20 V output. The SIR474DP-T1-GE3's 30 V VDS rating provides sufficient margin for 20 V PD applications with transient overshoot, and its PowerPAK SO-8 footprint simplifies layout migration from legacy solutions.
What is the gate resistance (Rg) specification for SIR474DP-T1-GE3, and why is it important?
The gate resistance Rg for SIR474DP-T1-GE3 is specified as 0.3–2.6 Ω (typ. 1.3 Ω) at 1 MHz, measured between gate and source terminals. This parameter directly impacts switching speed and gate driver power requirements: lower Rg enables faster turn-on/turn-off transitions, reducing switching losses, while higher Rg damps ringing and improves EMI behavior. Because Rg is 100% production-tested, the SIR474DP-T1-GE3 guarantees consistent gate drive timing across all units - critical for multi-phase VRM synchronization and reliability.
