Product details
Overview
SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 20 V TrenchFET® Gen V power MOSFET in PowerPAK® SO-8 package, rated for 165 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, with RDS(on) of 1.08 mΩ at VGS = 8 V and 1.14 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, optimized for high-efficiency battery management and load switching in compact DC systems.
For engineers reviewing the SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 datasheet, SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 pinout, SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 application, or SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 equivalent, this device delivers ultra-low on-resistance, 100% Rg and UIS tested reliability, and thermal performance validated to 150 °C junction temperature - critical for high-current, space-constrained power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-based silicon architecture enabling sub-1.5 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V gate drive, supporting direct logic-level control from 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without gate drivers. Its low Qg (24.6 nC typ. at 4.5 V) ensures fast switching with minimal drive loss.
The PowerPAK® SO-8 package features exposed copper drain pads on the bottom side for enhanced thermal conduction, with RthJC = 1.8 °C/W (typ.) and RthJA = 21 °C/W (typ., t ≤ 10 s), enabling high-power density operation on standard FR4 PCBs without external heatsinks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 20 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage suitable for 12 V and 19 V battery systems. |
| RDS(on) max @ VGS = 4.5 V | 1.4 mΩ - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 60 A, critical for thermally constrained battery protection circuits. |
| ID continuous @ TC = 25 °C | 165 A - Supports high-current load switching without parallel devices in server VRMs or e-mobility modules. |
| Qg typ. @ VGS = 4.5 V | 24.6 nC - Reduces gate drive power and enables efficient PWM operation up to 500 kHz in synchronous buck converters. |
| VGS(th) | 0.4–1.3 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with 2.5 V-rated logic, compatible with low-voltage I/O domains in portable electronics. |
| RthJC (max) | 2.2 °C/W - Allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper pour or heatsink, simplifying thermal design for >50 W dissipation. |
| Body diode VSD | 0.66 V (typ.) - Low forward drop reduces reverse recovery losses during synchronous rectification or freewheeling. |
Pinout & Package
PowerPAK® SO-8 single-package with bottom-side exposed drain terminals. Dimensions: 6.15 mm × 5.15 mm × 1.04 mm (L × W × H). Lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free construction per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Source (S) | Four parallel source terminals reduce source inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications. |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Exposed copper drain pad on bottom surface - primary thermal path and high-current return path; requires full-solder coverage. |
| G (Gate) | Control input | Single gate terminal (Pin 1 top-side marking); low Rg (0.4–1.6 Ω) minimizes gate ringing and EMI in fast-switching layouts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen V silicon | Enables 1.08 mΩ RDS(on) at 8 V and 1.14 mΩ at 4.5 V - highest conductivity per mm² among 20 V SO-8 MOSFETs. |
| 100 % Rg and UIS tested | Guarantees gate robustness against transient overvoltage and avalanche energy handling (EAS = 61.25 mJ). |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | Qgd = 2.0 nC / Qgs = 8.8 nC → 0.23 - improves hard-switching immunity and reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk. |
| Enhanced body diode recovery | trr = 39 ns (typ.), Qrr = 34 nC - lowers switching loss and EMI in bidirectional power flow applications like USB PD sinks. |
| Thermally optimized PowerPAK® | Bottom-side drain pad achieves 1.8 °C/W RthJC, enabling >50 W continuous dissipation on 1" × 1" 2-oz Cu FR4 board. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 20 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR520ADP-T1-RE3 | RDS(on) = 1.25 mΩ @ 4.5 V (higher by 0.11 mΩ); same PowerPAK SO-8 package and pinout. | Marginally higher conduction loss limits use in >80 A continuous applications where thermal headroom is tight. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 5–7% higher I²R loss at full load; identical layout and drive requirements. |
| IRLHS6242TRPBF | RDS(on) = 1.35 mΩ @ 4.5 V; SO-8 package but with standard leaded footprint (not PowerPAK), RthJA = 50 °C/W (vs. 21 °C/W). | Higher thermal resistance restricts continuous current to ~30 A on standard PCB - unsuitable for high-power battery switches. | Choose only for legacy SO-8 layouts requiring leaded compatibility; avoid where thermal performance or >40 A current is required. |
Compared with SiR520ADP-T1-RE3, SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 offers lower RDS(on) and better thermal performance; versus IRLHS6242TRPBF, it delivers 2.3× lower RthJA and 2.5× higher current rating - making it the preferred choice for thermally demanding, high-density power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 supports 132 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits under steady-state conduction and assumes proper PCB copper area and airflow. At ambient conditions, the device is rated for 38.4 A at TA = 70 °C with standard mounting on 1" × 1" FR4 board.
Does SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 support 3.3 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes, SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 is fully characterized down to VGS = 2.5 V, with RDS(on) = 2.65 mΩ (max) at that voltage. Its VGS(th) range of 0.4–1.3 V ensures robust turn-on with 3.3 V microcontroller outputs, and its low Qg (24.6 nC typ. at 4.5 V) minimizes gate drive burden - making SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 suitable for direct logic-level control without level-shifting.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SIR5208DP-T1-RE3?
The SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 has a typical junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of 1.8 °C/W and a maximum of 2.2 °C/W, measured from junction to the exposed drain pad on the bottom of the PowerPAK® SO-8 package. This low value enables efficient heat transfer to PCB copper or external heatsinks, supporting >50 W continuous power dissipation in well-designed layouts.
Is SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 qualified for automotive applications?
No, SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is designed for industrial, computing, and consumer power applications. For automotive-grade equivalents, Vishay offers the SQ-series (e.g., SQJQ480E) with full AEC-Q101 qualification, extended temperature range, and enhanced robustness testing - SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 should not be used in safety-critical or automotive environments without additional validation.
What does "100 % Rg and UIS tested" mean for SIR5208DP-T1-RE3?
"100 % Rg and UIS tested" means every unit of SIR5208DP-T1-RE3 undergoes production screening for gate resistance (Rg = 0.4–1.6 Ω) and unclamped inductive switching (UIS) stress, verifying ability to absorb 61.25 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy without degradation. This ensures consistent gate drive behavior and ruggedness against inductive turn-off transients - critical for reliability in motor drives and hot-swap circuits using SIR5208DP-T1-RE3.
