Product details
Overview
SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for 40 V drain-source voltage, 200 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It delivers ultra-low RDS(on) of 1.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and ID = 30 A, housed in a TO-263-7L (D2PAK) package with integrated source–drain diode - optimized for high-current DC–DC converters and motor drive inverters in electric power steering and on-board chargers.
For engineers reviewing the SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 datasheet, SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 pinout, SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 application, or SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 equivalent, this page provides verified thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.4 °C/W), gate charge (Qg = 206–310 nC), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 361 mJ), and AEC-Q101 qualification status - all critical for high-reliability automotive power stage design and layout validation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low conduction loss and fast switching performance. Its 7-lead TO-263-7L package features three parallel drain terminals and dual source terminals to minimize package inductance and improve current sharing under high di/dt conditions.
The device supports robust unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with 85 A single-pulse avalanche current and 361 mJ energy rating. Gate threshold voltage is tightly specified (2.5–3.5 V), and total gate charge (206–310 nC) enables predictable turn-on/turn-off timing in synchronous buck and half-bridge topologies operating up to 100 kHz.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(on) = 1.95 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-263-7 package; no AEC-Q101 documentation publicly available | Targeted for industrial motor drives; lacks automotive qualification evidence in public datasheet | Select only if AEC-Q101 is not required and thermal margin permits 0.15 mΩ higher RDS(on) |
| IRF1407PBF | RDS(on) = 4.8 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220AB package; RthJC = 1.25 °C/W; AEC-Q101 not claimed | Legacy industrial design; unsuitable for space-constrained automotive modules due to larger footprint and higher thermal resistance | Use only for cost-sensitive non-automotive replacements where 2.7× higher conduction loss is acceptable |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRF1407PBF, SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 offers the lowest RDS(on), highest current rating, and verified AEC-Q101 compliance - making it the sole choice for thermally constrained, safety-critical automotive power stages requiring 175 °C operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 supports 192 A continuous drain current at TC = 125 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-263-7L package and must be applied when ambient or heatsink conditions restrict case temperature rise. Designers should verify actual junction temperature using RthJC = 0.4 °C/W and power loss calculations to ensure operation remains within the -55 °C to +175 °C TJ range.
Does SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 have a qualified AEC-Q101 status, and what tests does that include?
Yes, SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 is AEC-Q101 qualified per Vishay documentation S15-1874-Rev. B. This includes stress testing for high-temperature gate bias (HTGB), high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and unclamped inductive switching (UIS). The qualification confirms suitability for automotive powertrain and chassis applications, though final system-level validation remains the customer's responsibility per Vishay's legal disclaimer.
What is the typical gate charge (Qg) of SQM200N04-1M8_GE3, and how does it impact gate driver selection?
The SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 has a total gate charge (Qg) of 206–310 nC at VGS = 10 V, VDS = 20 V, and ID = 120 A. This value determines the peak current required from the gate driver during switching transitions. For 100 kHz operation, a driver capable of ≥2 A peak sink/source current is recommended to achieve <50 ns rise/fall times while maintaining gate voltage stability across the dual gate pins (G1/G2).
How does the TO-263-7L package of SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 improve thermal and electrical performance versus standard TO-263-3?
The TO-263-7L package of SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 integrates three drain leads, two gate leads, and two source leads - reducing package inductance and spreading thermal load across multiple terminals. Compared to TO-263-3, it achieves 0.4 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance (vs. ~0.8–1.0 °C/W for 3-lead variants) and lowers effective gate loop inductance by 40 %, directly improving EMI behavior and switching robustness in high-di/dt automotive inverters.
Can SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 be used in synchronous rectification, and what is its body diode forward voltage?
Yes, SQM200N04-1M8_GE3 is suitable for synchronous rectification due to its optimized source–drain diode. At IF = 80 A and VGS = 0 V, the forward voltage (VSD) is 0.86 V typical and 1.5 V maximum at 25 °C. This low VSD - combined with fast reverse recovery (Qrr and trr not explicitly specified but supported by low Crss = 840–1050 pF) - reduces conduction and switching losses compared to Schottky alternatives in 40 V-class DC–DC converters.
