Product details
Overview
SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade N-channel TrenchFET® Gen IV power MOSFET with 40 V VDS, 0.7 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and 20 A, 575 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, housed in a thermally enhanced PowerPAK® 8 × 8LR package for high-current DC-DC converters and motor control in under-hood EV systems.
For engineers reviewing the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 datasheet, SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 pinout, SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 application, or SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 equivalent, this page delivers verified thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.25 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification status, 100 % UIS testing, and bottom-side copper-exposed lead configuration per Vishay S21-0139-Rev. A.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in high-power automotive subsystems. Its 0.25 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct heatsink mounting via the exposed drain paddle, while the 116 nC total gate charge (Qg) supports efficient gate drive design at 10 V.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 66 ns reverse recovery time and 94 nC Qrr, validated for synchronous rectification and bidirectional current handling in 48 V mild-hybrid architectures. All units undergo 100 % Rg and UIS testing per AEC-Q101 stress requirements.

Pinout & Package
PowerPAK® 8 × 8LR is a bottom-exposed, thermally optimized surface-mount package with 8 mm × 8 mm footprint and 1.6 mm profile. The drain paddle occupies the full underside for direct thermal interface; gate and source terminals are top-side only.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Pin 1) | Gate input | Control terminal for MOSFET switching; requires ≤20 V rating; connected to driver IC output |
| S1–S3 (Pins 2–4) | Source return path | Three dedicated source pins reduce bond-wire inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications |
| D5–D8 (Pins 5–8) | Drain connection | Four drain pins tied internally to the exposed copper paddle - primary current path and thermal conduction path to PCB/heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchFET® Gen IV silicon | Delivers 0.7 mΩ RDS(on) in 8 × 8 mm footprint - 30 % lower on-resistance than prior-gen equivalents at same voltage rating |
| 100 % UIS tested | Guarantees ruggedness against inductive switching surges up to 1800 A peak - eliminates need for external snubbers in motor drives |
| Exposed drain paddle | Enables <0.25 °C/W RthJC - reduces thermal derating by 40 % compared to QFN packages with plated thermal pads |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Covers HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD tests - satisfies Tier-1 OEM requirements for powertrain and chassis control modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRL1404ZPBF | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220 package; RthJC = 1.25 °C/W; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Limited to non-automotive industrial SMPS; unsuitable for under-hood thermal cycling or safety-critical systems | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive 40 V switch-mode supplies where thermal performance is secondary |
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(on) = 0.65 mΩ @ 10 V; PowerFLAT™ 8 × 8; AEC-Q101 qualified; RthJC = 0.35 °C/W | Compatible in 48 V BMS and OBC, but higher thermal resistance increases junction temperature by ~40 °C at 500 A | Prefer when ST ecosystem compatibility or dual-source strategy is required; verify thermal margin with board-level simulation |
Compared with IRL1404ZPBF and STL220N4F7AG, the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 offers the lowest RthJC (0.25 °C/W) and highest continuous current rating (575 A), making it optimal for thermally constrained automotive power stages where junction temperature must stay below 155 °C at full load.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 supports 330 A continuous drain current at TC = 125 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derated value reflects thermal limitations of the PowerPAK® 8 × 8LR package under sustained high-temperature operation and must be used for thermal design validation in under-hood applications where case temperature exceeds 100 °C. The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 maintains full AEC-Q101 compliance across this range.
Does SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 have an integrated Schottky diode or is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification?
The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 uses a planar silicon body diode-not a Schottky-optimized for low Qrr (94 nC) and fast trr (66 ns). Its body diode is fully characterized for synchronous rectification in buck and totem-pole PFC topologies, with VSD = 0.8–1.1 V at 50 A and no reverse recovery tail current. The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 does not include an external Schottky; its integrated diode meets AEC-Q101 stress requirements.
Is the exposed copper on the bottom of SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 intended for soldering or mechanical heatsinking only?
The exposed copper drain paddle on the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 is designed for both solder reflow attachment and direct thermal interface. Per Vishay document 73257, the end of the lead terminal is exposed copper (not plated), and while a solder fillet at the tip is not guaranteed, full-area soldering of the paddle to a thermal pad ensures robust electrical and thermal connection. The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 achieves RthJC = 0.25 °C/W only when the paddle is soldered per recommended land pattern.
What gate drive voltage range is supported by SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3, and is 5 V logic-level operation feasible?
The SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 specifies VGS = ±20 V absolute maximum, with VGS(th) = 2.0–3.5 V. While it conducts at 5 V, RDS(on) rises sharply below 7.5 V - at VGS = 5 V, RDS(on) exceeds 2.5 mΩ (per Fig. 10). For production use, the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 requires ≥10 V gate drive to achieve its rated 0.7 mΩ on-resistance and maintain efficiency in high-current automotive systems.
How is the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 qualified for automotive use beyond AEC-Q101?
Beyond AEC-Q101 qualification, the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 undergoes 100 % Rg (gate resistance) and UIS (unclamped inductive switching) testing per individual unit. It also meets Vishay's internal automotive reliability standards for HTOL (high-temperature operating life), temperature cycling, and humidity testing. These extended validations are documented in Vishay's reliability report for S21-0139 and apply specifically to the SQJQ144AER-T1_GE3 lot release process.
