Product details
Overview
SISH116DN-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel 40 V (D-S) TrenchFET® power MOSFET optimized for PWM-driven synchronous rectification and intermediate switching in DC-DC converters, with RDS(on) = 7.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 15 nC, and 16.4 A continuous drain current at TA = 25 °C.
For engineers reviewing the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 datasheet, SISH116DN-T1-GE3 pinout, SISH116DN-T1-GE3 application, or SISH116DN-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include low gate charge for high-frequency switching, 4.5 V logic-level drive capability, thermal performance in PowerPAK 1212-8SH package, and body diode recovery characteristics for synchronous buck topologies.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low RDS(on) and fast switching dynamics. Its gate threshold voltage (1.5–2.5 V) enables reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic, while the 1.9 °C/W typical junction-to-case thermal resistance supports high-current operation under constrained thermal conditions.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode with trr = 30–60 ns and Qrr = 26–52 nC, enabling efficient reverse recovery in synchronous rectifier configurations. It is rated for 15 A avalanche current and 11 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, confirming ruggedness in inductive switching applications.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLHS6242TRPBF | RDS(on) = 8.2 mΩ @ 4.5 V; Qg = 14.5 nC; same PowerPAK 1212-8 package but no 100 % Rg test. | Similar synchronous rectifier use, but slightly higher conduction loss at 3.3 V gate drive. | Preferred where gate drive voltage is ≥4.5 V and Rg consistency is non-critical. |
| DMN3026LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 9.5 mΩ @ 4.5 V; Qg = 12.5 nC; SO-8 package with higher RthJA (50 °C/W). | Lower gate charge benefits ultra-high-frequency designs, but thermal performance limits >10 A continuous operation. | Select when board space allows SO-8 and switching frequency exceeds 2 MHz. |
Compared with IRLHS6242TRPBF and DMN3026LSD-13, the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 delivers the lowest RDS(on) at 4.5 V and highest avalanche ruggedness, making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-current synchronous buck stages requiring long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SISH116DN-T1-GE3 at 70 °C ambient temperature?
The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 supports 13.1 A continuous drain current at TA = 70 °C with proper PCB copper area per Vishay's recommended footprint. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the PowerPAK 1212-8SH package and must be validated using actual board layout and airflow conditions. The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 datasheet specifies this value in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table under "Continuous drain current (TJ = 150 °C)".
Does SISH116DN-T1-GE3 support logic-level gate drive from a 3.3 V microcontroller?
Yes, the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) of 1.5–2.5 V and guaranteed RDS(on) ≤ 10.0 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, enabling full enhancement with 3.3 V logic. However, for lowest conduction loss, a 4.5–5 V gate drive is recommended. The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 achieves usable on-resistance even at 3.3 V, though not fully specified in datasheet min/max limits.
What is the purpose of the exposed drain paddle on the bottom of the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 package?
The exposed drain paddle on the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 serves dual functions: it provides low-inductance, low-resistance electrical connection to the drain terminals (pins 5–8), and acts as the primary thermal path from die to PCB copper. Per Vishay's layout guidelines, it must be soldered to a large thermal pad connected to internal ground planes to achieve the specified RthJC = 1.9 °C/W. The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 thermal performance depends critically on this interface.
Can SISH116DN-T1-GE3 be used in avalanche-rated applications such as inductive load switching?
Yes, the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 is rated for 15 A single-pulse avalanche current and 11 mJ avalanche energy, verified per JEDEC JESD24-1. It is suitable for controlled inductive switching where energy dissipation remains within these limits. Designers must calculate worst-case stored inductive energy and verify against the SISH116DN-T1-GE3 EAS curve in the datasheet's Typical Characteristics section.
Is SISH116DN-T1-GE3 pin-compatible with other PowerPAK 1212-8 devices?
The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 uses the standard PowerPAK 1212-8SH footprint with 8 terminals in dual-row configuration, matching mechanical dimensions and pad layout of Vishay's PowerPAK 1212-8 family. However, pin function alignment (e.g., gate location) is specific to this part - always verify pinout diagrams before substitution. The SISH116DN-T1-GE3 bottom-view pin numbering matches the official Vishay outline drawing 76384.
