Product details
Overview
SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET with -60 V drain-source voltage rating, 0.150 Ω RDS(on) at -10 V gate drive, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood power control in 12 V/24 V systems. It operates up to +175 °C junction temperature and delivers -2.5 A continuous drain current in SOT-23 package.
For engineers reviewing the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 datasheet, SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 pinout, SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 application, or SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -60 V VDS, low RDS(on) at -4.5 V gate drive (0.200 Ω), AEC-Q101 qualification, thermal robustness to +175 °C, and SOT-23 footprint compatibility with space-constrained automotive modules.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchFET® technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with 11.2 nC total gate charge and 7 ns turn-on delay. Its gate threshold voltage range (-1.5 V to -2.5 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level automotive controllers.
The device integrates a built-in body diode with -0.8 V forward voltage at -1.5 A and supports unidirectional load switching in high-side configurations. Thermal design is enabled by validated RthJA = 175 °C/W (PCB mount) and RthJF = 75 °C/W (junction-to-foot).

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) = 0.190 Ω @ -4.5 V; VDS = -20 V; SOT-23 package | Limited to 12 V systems only; unsuitable for 24 V load dump environments | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin requirements in low-voltage body electronics |
| IPD250N06L3-1R2 | RDS(on) = 1.2 mΩ @ -10 V; TO-252 package; 60 V rating | Higher current (250 A) and larger footprint; requires heatsinking for same thermal performance | Choose for high-power applications where PCB area and thermal mass allow TO-252 layout |
Compared with DMN2053LFG-7 and IPD250N06L3-1R2, the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 uniquely balances -60 V capability, SOT-23 compactness, and -4.5 V logic compatibility-making it optimal for space-constrained, 24 V automotive modules requiring AEC-Q101 validation without thermal derating.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3?
The SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 has a specified operating junction temperature range of -55 °C to +175 °C, fully qualified per AEC-Q101 for under-hood automotive applications. This rating is validated through accelerated life testing and thermal transient characterization, and the device maintains RDS(on) stability up to this limit as confirmed in the datasheet's "On-Resistance vs. Junction Temperature" graph.
Is the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 compatible with 5 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes, the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 is fully compatible with 5 V logic-level gate drive: its gate threshold voltage range is -1.5 V to -2.5 V, and it achieves 0.200 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -4.5 V with ID = -1.8 A. This enables direct interface with standard automotive microcontrollers and LIN/CAN transceivers without level-shifting circuitry.
Does the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 include integrated ESD protection?
Yes, the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 features typical human-body-model (HBM) ESD protection of 800 V, as stated in the official Vishay datasheet (S12-2198-Rev. C). This level of protection reduces susceptibility to handling damage during assembly and improves robustness in infotainment and body control module environments.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3?
The SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) of 175 °C/W when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB with 2 oz. copper on both sides. This value is measured under standardized conditions and serves as a baseline for thermal design; actual performance depends on PCB layout, copper area, and airflow.
How is the SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 marked on the package?
The SQ2361EES-T1-GE3 carries the marking code "8Nxxx" on the top surface of its SOT-23 package, where "xxx" denotes date code and lot traceability information. This marking aligns with Vishay's standard SOT-23 labeling convention and is verified in the "Ordering Information" section of the official datasheet.
