Product details
Overview
SIS472DN-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a N-channel 30 V (D-S) TrenchFET® Power MOSFET optimized for high-side synchronous rectifier operation in notebook CPU core power stages. It delivers 20 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, exhibits RDS(on) of 8.9 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and 12.4 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, and features 9.8 nC total gate charge for fast switching with low drive loss.
For engineers reviewing the SIS472DN-T1-GE3 datasheet, SIS472DN-T1-GE3 pinout, SIS472DN-T1-GE3 application, or SIS472DN-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection considerations include its PowerPAK® 1212-8 package thermal performance, 100 % UIS and Rg tested reliability, and suitability for high-efficiency DC-DC converter high-side switches where low conduction loss and controlled turn-on/turn-off timing are critical.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve ultra-low on-resistance in a compact leadless package. Its gate threshold voltage (1.2–2.5 V) and steep transconductance (49 S typical) support robust turn-on with standard 4.5 V or 10 V logic-level drivers.
The device is characterized for high-side synchronous rectification, with body diode parameters-VSD = 0.85–1.2 V at IS = 10 A and trr = 14–28 ns-optimized to minimize reverse recovery loss during commutation in buck converters.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Notebook CPU Core VRM | High-Efficiency Point-of-Load Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Primary high-side switch in multiphase buck converter supplying dynamic current to Intel/AMD mobile processors (e.g., Core i7-U series). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side synchronous rectifier operating at 300–600 kHz with precise dead-time control to prevent shoot-through. Use Value: 8.9 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V reduces conduction loss by ~0.35 W vs. 12 mΩ alternatives at 15 A, directly improving VRM efficiency and thermal headroom in ultrabook chassis. | Use Scenario: High-current output stage in server motherboard memory regulator delivering 25–40 A to DDR4/DDR5 modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side FET in interleaved buck topology; leverages low Qg (9.8 nC) for clean gate transitions under high dV/dt conditions. Use Value: 3.6 °C/W RthJC allows full 20 A current capability with minimal heatsinking-enabling single-layer PCB routing and eliminating need for external thermal vias in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Thin-Profile Industrial SMPS | Automotive Infotainment DC-DC Stage |
Use Scenario: Compact 12 V–3.3 V step-down supply in fanless industrial HMIs where height <1.1 mm is mandatory. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in fixed-frequency synchronous buck; benefits from PowerPAK® 1212-8's 1.05 mm profile and low RthJA (29 °C/W typ.). Use Value: 40 % smaller footprint than TSSOP-8 enables dense layout in 12 mm × 12 mm power section; thermal rise of only 4.8 °C above board at 2 W simplifies thermal design. | Use Scenario: 5 V–1.2 V core supply for automotive-grade SoCs in infotainment head units operating across -40 °C to +105 °C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side FET rated for 150 °C junction temperature; uses VGS(th) stability over temperature to maintain safe turn-on margin in wide-range environments. Use Value: Guaranteed RDS(on) ≤12.4 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and TJ = 125 °C ensures stable efficiency across full automotive temperature range without derating. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR872DP-T1-GE3 | Higher VDS (40 V), larger RDS(on) (11.5 mΩ @ 10 V), same PowerPAK® 1212-8 package. | Better suited for 19 V input adapters or 24 V industrial rails where 30 V margin is insufficient. | Select when system input voltage exceeds 15 V or transient immunity >35 V is required; trade-off is +29 % conduction loss at 15 A. |
| IRF7759L2TRPBF | Same VDS (30 V), higher RDS(on) (14.5 mΩ @ 10 V), SO-8 package with higher RthJC (20 °C/W). | Legacy-compatible replacement where SO-8 footprint is fixed and thermal budget allows ~1.5 W extra loss. | Choose only if redesigning PCB is not feasible; expect ~30 % higher junction temperature rise and reduced current capability at same board area. |
Compared with SiR872DP-T1-GE3 and IRF7759L2TRPBF, the SIS472DN-T1-GE3 offers the lowest RDS(on) and best thermal resistance in its voltage class, making it optimal for high-density, high-efficiency notebook and PoL applications where board space and thermal headroom are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SIS472DN-T1-GE3 at 70 °C case temperature?
The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 is rated for 20 A continuous drain current at TC = 70 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating is package-limited and assumes proper PCB thermal design per Vishay's PowerPAK® 1212-8 mounting guidelines. At this condition, RDS(on) remains ≤12.4 mΩ with VGS = 4.5 V, ensuring stable conduction performance in high-temperature environments. The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 maintains this current capability without derating down to TC = 25 °C.
Does SIS472DN-T1-GE3 support 3.3 V gate drive in high-side synchronous rectifier applications?
The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 1.2–2.5 V, making it compatible with 3.3 V logic-level gate drive. However, RDS(on) increases significantly below VGS = 4.5 V-data shows 12.4 mΩ at 4.5 V but no guaranteed value at 3.3 V. For reliable high-side operation, 4.5 V or higher gate drive is recommended to ensure full enhancement and minimize conduction loss. The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 is not characterized for guaranteed on-state performance at 3.3 V.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RthJA) for SIS472DN-T1-GE3 on a standard FR4 board?
The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 has a typical RthJA of 29 °C/W and maximum of 36 °C/W when mounted on a 1" × 1" FR4 board, per the Thermal Resistance Ratings table. This value assumes standard JEDEC test conditions (single-sided copper, 1 oz, no internal planes). With optimized PCB layout-including extended drain pad copper and internal ground planes-RthJA can be reduced further. The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 achieves substantially lower RthJA than SO-8 or TSSOP-8 packages due to its PowerPAK® 1212-8 construction.
Is SIS472DN-T1-GE3 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q101?
No, the SIS472DN-T1-GE3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It is designed and tested for commercial and industrial applications, with an operating junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C. While it meets RoHS and halogen-free requirements, Vishay does not list AEC-Q101 qualification for this part number in its official documentation or datasheet (Document Number 67307, Rev. A). For automotive infotainment use, system-level validation is required, and the SIS472DN-T1-GE3 should not be assumed qualified without explicit AEC-Q101 certification.
How is the gate resistance (Rg) of SIS472DN-T1-GE3 verified, and why does it matter?
The SIS472DN-T1-GE3 undergoes 100 % Rg testing during production, with guaranteed values of 0.2–2.4 Ω at 1 MHz. This verification ensures consistent gate drive dynamics across all units-critical for predictable turn-on delay (9–18 ns), rise time (9–18 ns), and EMI behavior in high-frequency synchronous buck converters. Tight Rg control minimizes lot-to-lot variation in switching loss and gate driver power consumption. The SIS472DN-T1-GE3's tested Rg enables accurate SPICE modeling and eliminates need for external gate resistors in many designs.
