Product details
Overview
SQS482EN-T1_GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an automotive-grade N-channel 30 V MOSFET in PowerPAK® 1212-8 package, delivering RDS(on) = 8.5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and 10.0 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, rated for continuous 16 A drain current and 175 °C junction operation - deployed in high-efficiency DC-DC converters and motor control stages of ADAS power modules.
For engineers reviewing the SQS482EN-T1_GE3 datasheet, SQS482EN-T1_GE3 pinout, SQS482EN-T1_GE3 application, or SQS482EN-T1_GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 2.4 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 100 % Rg and UIS tested reliability, and compatibility with 4.5 V logic-level gate drive in space-constrained automotive PCBs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchFET® technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with Qg = 26–39 nC and td(on)/tr/td(off)/tf = 7–11 ns / 21–32 ns / 49–74 ns / 18–27 ns under standard test conditions (VDD = 15 V, Rg = 1 Ω). Its 100 % UIS-tested ruggedness supports reliable operation in inductive load switching.
The device features integrated body diode with VSD = 0.82–1.2 V at IF = 15 A and exhibits normalized RDS(on) drift of ≤ 2.0× from −55 °C to +175 °C, enabling stable performance across automotive ambient extremes without derating beyond datasheet limits.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiL670ADN-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 9.0 mΩ @ 10 V; RthJC = 2.5 °C/W; same PowerPAK 1212-8 package and AEC-Q101 rating. | Marginally higher on-resistance increases conduction loss by ~6 % at 16 A; identical thermal and layout compatibility. | Select when SiL670ADN-T1-GE3 offers better distributor stock or pricing while maintaining functional equivalence in existing designs. |
| IRL8726PBF | RDS(on) = 7.0 mΩ @ 10 V but in larger SO-8 package; RthJC = 1.8 °C/W; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Higher thermal performance but lacks automotive qualification; requires PCB redesign due to SO-8 footprint and different pinout. | Consider only for non-automotive industrial applications where AEC-Q101 is not required and board space permits SO-8 layout. |
Compared with SiL670ADN-T1-GE3, SQS482EN-T1_GE3 offers lower RDS(on) and tighter gate charge distribution; versus IRL8726PBF, it trades minor on-resistance increase for AEC-Q101 compliance and 40 % smaller footprint - making SQS482EN-T1_GE3 the preferred choice for new automotive designs requiring space and qualification alignment.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for SQS482EN-T1_GE3?
The SQS482EN-T1_GE3 is rated for continuous operation up to +175 °C junction temperature, verified per AEC-Q101 stress test conditions. This rating is supported by its thermal design - RthJC = 2.4 °C/W and RthJA = 81 °C/W - allowing reliable use in under-hood automotive environments where ambient temperatures reach +125 °C. The SQS482EN-T1_GE3 datasheet specifies derating curves confirming full 16 A current capability at 175 °C TJ.
Is SQS482EN-T1_GE3 pin-compatible with other PowerPAK 1212-8 MOSFETs?
Yes, SQS482EN-T1_GE3 uses the standard PowerPAK 1212-8 single configuration pinout: pins 1–3 are Source, pin 4 is Gate, and pins 5–8 are Drain (internally connected to the bottom paddle). This matches all Vishay PowerPAK 1212-8 single MOSFETs including SiL670ADN-T1-GE3 and SQJQ482EP-T1_GE3, enabling direct layout reuse across qualified alternatives without PCB modification.
Does SQS482EN-T1_GE3 require special PCB layout considerations for thermal performance?
Yes - optimal thermal performance for SQS482EN-T1_GE3 requires maximizing copper area under the exposed drain paddle. Vishay recommends ≥ 0.3 in² (≈ 193 mm²) of 2 oz. copper on inner or bottom layers connected via ≥ 6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.8 mm pitch) to the drain land. The SQS482EN-T1_GE3 application note AN822 confirms that exceeding 0.5 in² yields diminishing returns, and insufficient copper causes RthJA to degrade beyond 81 °C/W.
What gate drive voltage range is recommended for SQS482EN-T1_GE3?
SQS482EN-T1_GE3 is characterized for operation from VGS = ±20 V absolute maximum, with full enhancement achieved at VGS = 4.5 V (RDS(on) = 10.0 mΩ) and optimized conduction at VGS = 10 V (RDS(on) = 8.5 mΩ). For automotive systems, 5 V or 10 V logic-level gate drivers are recommended; gate resistors between 1 Ω and 10 Ω balance switching speed and EMI. The SQS482EN-T1_GE3 gate threshold voltage range is 1.5–2.5 V, ensuring noise immunity in noisy vehicle environments.
How is SQS482EN-T1_GE3 qualified for automotive use?
SQS482EN-T1_GE3 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests including high-temperature gate bias (HTGB), high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling (−55 °C to +175 °C), and unbiased highly accelerated stress test (uHAST). It also undergoes 100 % Rg and UIS (unclamped inductive switching) screening per the SQS482EN-T1_GE3 datasheet revision C. These qualifications validate its suitability for safety-critical automotive functions without additional component-level qualification.
