Product details
Overview
SIS456DN-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 30 V (D-S) TrenchFET® Power MOSFET in a lead-free, halogen-free PowerPAK® 1212-8 package, delivering RDS(on) = 5.1 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and 6.8 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, rated for 35 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and optimized for high-efficiency DC/DC converters in notebook and point-of-load (POL) applications.
For engineers reviewing the SIS456DN-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIS456DN-T1-GE3 pinout, SIS456DN-T1-GE3 application, or SIS456DN-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low RDS(on), 18.5 nC total gate charge at 4.5 V drive, 1.9 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and validated avalanche energy of 31 mJ - all critical for synchronous buck converter high-side/low-side switching and thermal-limited POL designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Vishay's TrenchFET® silicon process to achieve low on-resistance with fast switching dynamics: Qg = 18.5 nC (VGS = 4.5 V), tr = 25–40 ns, and tf = 10–20 ns under standard test conditions. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) is specified from 1.0 V to 2.2 V, enabling robust 4.5 V logic-level drive compatibility.
The device integrates a body diode with VSD = 0.8–1.2 V at IS = 10 A and reverse recovery time trr = 20–40 ns, supporting synchronous rectification and freewheeling in hard-switched topologies. Thermal design leverages the exposed drain pad of the PowerPAK 1212-8 package, achieving RthJC = 1.9 °C/W (typ.) and RthJA = 24 °C/W (t ≤ 10 s).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines safe operation in 12 V and 24 V input DC/DC stages. |
| RDS(on) | 5.1 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A, critical for high-current POL rails. |
| ID (cont) | 35 A @ TC = 25 °C - Continuous current rating limited by package thermal capability, not die saturation. |
| Qg | 18.5 nC @ VGS = 4.5 V - Low gate charge reduces driver power and switching losses in 500 kHz–1 MHz converters. |
| RthJC | 1.9 °C/W (typ.) - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct heatsinking via PCB copper; supports >30 W dissipation with minimal ΔT. |
| EAS | 31 mJ - Avalanche energy rating confirms ruggedness against inductive switching stress without external snubbers. |
| VGS(th) | 1.0–2.2 V - Gate threshold range ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V and 5 V controllers, minimizing shoot-through risk. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerPAK® 1212-8 - leadless, surface-mount package with exposed drain pad on bottom side; footprint 3.30 mm × 3.30 mm, height 1.05 mm; optimized for high-current, low-inductance PCB layouts with thermal via arrays under drain pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (Drain) | Drain (D) | All eight terminals connect to internal drain metallization; electrically common; primary heat path to PCB via exposed copper pad. |
| 3 (Gate) | Gate (G) | Single gate terminal; requires low-impedance drive path to minimize ringing; gate resistance Rg = 0.2–1.8 Ω (typ./max). |
| 1 (Source) | Source (S) | Source terminal tied to internal source bond wires; serves as reference for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance layout essential. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 30 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR466DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 4.0 mΩ @ 10 V (lower), Qg = 24.5 nC @ 4.5 V (higher), same PowerPAK 1212-8 package | Better conduction loss but slower switching; suited for <500 kHz, high-current applications where gate drive strength is ample | Select SiR466DP-T1-GE3 when minimizing I²R loss dominates over switching loss; verify driver capability handles +32 % Qg. |
| IRLHS6342TRPBF | RDS(on) = 6.2 mΩ @ 4.5 V (higher), Qg = 15.5 nC @ 4.5 V (lower), PQFN 3.3 × 3.3 mm package with different pinout | Faster switching but higher conduction loss; requires PCB redesign due to non-compatible drain/source terminal mapping | Choose IRLHS6342TRPBF only if layout revision is feasible and 15.5 nC Qg enables >1 MHz operation with marginal gate drive. |
Compared with SIS456DN-T1-GE3, SiR466DP-T1-GE3 trades higher gate charge for lower RDS(on), while IRLHS6342TRPBF offers lower Qg at the cost of higher on-resistance and incompatible pinout - making SIS456DN-T1-GE3 the balanced choice for 500–800 kHz notebook and POL converters requiring proven thermal and reliability performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIS456DN-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SIS456DN-T1-GE3 is rated for 35 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating reflects package thermal limits under steady-state conditions with adequate PCB copper heatsinking, not silicon current saturation. Derating applies above 70 °C case temperature per the Current Derating curve on page 5 of the datasheet.
Does SIS456DN-T1-GE3 support 3.3 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes, SIS456DN-T1-GE3 supports 3.3 V logic-level drive: its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) is specified from 1.0 V to 2.2 V, and RDS(on) = 6.8 mΩ is guaranteed at VGS = 4.5 V - well within typical 3.3 V ±10 % supply tolerance. Full 35 A current capability is achievable with proper gate driver rise time and layout.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for SIS456DN-T1-GE3 under standard mounting conditions?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance RthJA for SIS456DN-T1-GE3 is 24 °C/W (typical) and 33 °C/W (maximum) for t ≤ 10 s on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, per the Thermal Resistance Ratings table. This value assumes surface mounting with recommended land pattern per AN822; actual RthJA improves significantly with added copper area or multilayer thermal planes.
Is SIS456DN-T1-GE3 qualified for automotive applications?
No, SIS456DN-T1-GE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is designed and tested for commercial and industrial applications per Vishay's standard reliability program. For automotive use, engineers should select Vishay's AEC-Q101-qualified equivalents such as SQJQ460E or SI7862DP, which undergo extended temperature cycling and humidity testing.
What does "T1-GE3" signify in the full part number SIS456DN-T1-GE3?
In SIS456DN-T1-GE3, "T1" denotes tape-and-reel packaging (1000 pcs/reel), and "GE3" indicates lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free construction compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and IEC 61249-2-21. This suffix confirms environmental compliance without performance trade-offs - electrical specs match the base SiS456DN device.
