Product details
Overview
SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET with 80 V VDS, 3.0 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 150 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It operates up to +175 °C junction temperature and is housed in a thermally enhanced PowerPAK 8 × 8L package, targeting high-current DC-DC converters and motor control in engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 datasheet, SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 pinout, SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 application, or SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 1.1 °C/W RthJC, 100% Rg and UIS testing, thin 1.9 mm profile, and guaranteed performance across -55 °C to +175 °C.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in high-power automotive loads. Its gate threshold voltage (2.5–3.5 V) enables robust drive compatibility with standard 10 V gate drivers, while its 82 nC typical total gate charge supports efficient PWM operation at frequencies up to several hundred kHz.
The device integrates a body diode with 0.7–1.2 V forward voltage at 40 A and exhibits 140 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy. Thermal design leverages direct-drain thermal path via the exposed copper bottom pad and low 1.1 °C/W junction-to-case resistance, enabling high-power density mounting on PCBs with minimal heatsinking.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 supports 87 A continuous drain current at TC = 125 °C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the PowerPAK 8 × 8L package and ensures safe operation within the 175 °C maximum junction temperature limit. Designers must verify PCB copper area and airflow to maintain TC ≤ 125 °C under full load.
Is SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification in a 400 kHz DC-DC converter?
Yes, SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 is suitable for synchronous rectification at 400 kHz due to its 19 ns typical turn-on delay, 7.3 ns rise time, and 82 nC total gate charge-parameters validated in the datasheet's dynamic characteristics section. Its low 3.0 mΩ RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss, while the 1.1 °C/W RthJC supports thermal management at high switching frequencies.
Does SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 have an integrated body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 includes an inherent body diode with a forward voltage (VSD) of 0.7–1.2 V at IF = 40 A and VGS = 0 V, per the Source-Drain Diode Characteristics table. This diode supports freewheeling current in inductive loads such as motor windings and solenoids, and its performance is characterized across temperature from -55 °C to +150 °C.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SQJQ480E-T1_GE3, and how does it affect drive compatibility?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SQJQ480E-T1_GE3 is 2.5–3.5 V at ID = 250 μA, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level drivers when operated above 4.5 V. For full enhancement and minimal RDS(on), a 10 V gate drive is recommended-consistent with its 0.003 Ω specification and compatible with common automotive gate drivers like the UCC27531.
How is thermal performance validated for SQJQ480E-T1_GE3, and what is the significance of RthJC = 1.1 °C/W?
SQJQ480E-T1_GE3's RthJC = 1.1 °C/W is measured junction-to-case (drain) under standardized conditions and verified per JEDEC JESD51-14. This low value confirms highly efficient heat transfer from die to the exposed drain pad, enabling direct mounting to heatsinks or thick copper layers. It allows designers to achieve >100 W dissipation with <110 °C temperature rise from case to junction-critical for under-hood reliability.
