Product details
Overview
SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in SOT-23 package, rated for -60 V drain-source voltage, 0.170 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and -2.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It serves as a high-side load switch in 12 V/24 V automotive power distribution modules requiring AEC-Q101 qualification and 175 °C junction operation.
For engineers reviewing the SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 datasheet, SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 pinout, SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 application, or SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -60 V VDS, low RDS(on) at -4.5 V gate drive, AEC-Q101 qualification, thermal resistance (RthJA = 175 °C/W), and integrated source-drain diode with -0.8 V forward voltage.
Technical Context
This device uses Vishay's TrenchFET® process to achieve low on-resistance and robust avalanche capability (EAS = 8.4 mJ). Its gate threshold voltage range (-1.5 V to -2.5 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard automotive logic-level drivers, while 100 % Rg and UIS testing guarantees production consistency under transient stress.
The SOT-23 package enables compact placement in space-constrained engine control units and body electronics. Thermal performance is characterized for FR4 PCB mounting (1" square, 2 oz copper), with junction-to-foot resistance (RthJF = 75 °C/W) supporting localized heatsinking via drain pad connection.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2053LFG-7 | RDS(on) = 0.220 Ω @ -4.5 V; VDS = -20 V; SOT-23 package | Limited to 12 V systems; unsuitable for 24 V load dump or reverse-battery protection | Select when lower voltage rating and cost sensitivity outweigh 60 V requirement |
| SI2301BDS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.115 Ω @ -4.5 V; VDS = -20 V; AEC-Q101 qualified | Higher current capability (-3.1 A) but insufficient VDS margin for commercial vehicle 24 V architectures | Prefer for compact 12 V consumer-grade modules where 60 V derating is unnecessary |
Compared with DMN2053LFG-7 and SI2301BDS-T1-GE3, SQ2361AEES-T1_GE3 uniquely combines -60 V rating, AEC-Q101 compliance, and 175 °C operation-making it the only option among the three validated for under-hood 24 V commercial vehicle power switches.
