Product details
Overview
SQS482EN-T1_BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for 30 V drain-source voltage, 16 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, and 0.0085 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It operates up to +175 °C junction temperature and is housed in a PowerPAK® 1212-8 leadless package, targeting high-efficiency DC-DC converters and motor control stages in engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the SQS482EN-T1_BE3 datasheet, SQS482EN-T1_BE3 pinout, SQS482EN-T1_BE3 application, or SQS482EN-T1_BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 100 % Rg and UIS testing, ultra-low RDS(on) at 4.5 V (0.0100 Ω), and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 2.4 °C/W - critical for thermally constrained automotive power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in synchronous buck converters and H-bridge drivers. Its gate charge profile (Qg = 26–39 nC, Qgd = 4.3 nC) supports efficient PWM operation at frequencies up to 1 MHz while maintaining low EMI due to controlled dV/dt.
The device integrates a robust body diode with VSD = 0.82–1.2 V at IF = 15 A and is fully characterized for unclamped inductive switching (UIS), enabling reliable operation in inductive load switching without external snubbers.
Key Specifications

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon BSC014N04LS6 | RDS(on) = 1.4 mΩ @ 10 V (lower), but 40 V VDS; larger PowerSO-8 package (5 × 6 mm); RthJC = 1.8 °C/W. | Better conduction loss at high current, but less suitable for tight 3.3 mm × 3.3 mm layouts; higher cost. | Select when maximum efficiency at >20 A is required and PCB area permits larger footprint. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SQS482EN-T1_BE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SQS482EN-T1_BE3 maintains a continuous drain current rating of 16 A even at TC = 125 °C, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects its robust thermal design and 175 °C junction rating - enabling sustained operation in high-ambient environments like transmission control modules without current derating.
Is SQS482EN-T1_BE3 suitable for 4.5 V logic-level gate drive applications?
Yes, the SQS482EN-T1_BE3 is fully specified for 4.5 V gate drive, with RDS(on) = 0.0100 Ω (max) at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 16.4 A. Its gate threshold voltage range (1.5–2.5 V) ensures strong turn-on with standard 5 V microcontroller outputs, making it ideal for automotive MCU-driven power stages.
Does SQS482EN-T1_BE3 have avalanche ruggedness certification?
Yes, the SQS482EN-T1_BE3 undergoes 100 % unclamped inductive switching (UIS) testing per JEDEC JESD24-1, with a guaranteed single-pulse avalanche energy rating of 48 mJ (L = 0.1 mH). This validates its ability to safely absorb inductive energy during fault conditions without failure.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for SQS482EN-T1_BE3?
The SQS482EN-T1_BE3 has a junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance of 2.4 °C/W, measured under standard test conditions. This low value is enabled by the exposed drain pad in the PowerPAK 1212-8 package, allowing efficient heat transfer directly to the PCB copper plane.
How does the PowerPAK 1212-8 package of SQS482EN-T1_BE3 compare thermally to SO-8 or TSSOP-8 packages?
The PowerPAK 1212-8 package used in SQS482EN-T1_BE3 delivers 20× lower junction-to-ambient thermal resistance than TSSOP-8 and ≈8× better than SO-8. With RthJC = 2.4 °C/W and minimal thermal interface resistance, SQS482EN-T1_BE3 achieves die temperatures only ~4.8 °C above board temperature at 2 W dissipation - versus >40 °C rise in legacy packages.
