Product details
Overview
SQW33N65EF-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 650 V, 34 A N-channel power MOSFET in TO-247AD package, featuring ultra-low gate charge (115 nC typ.), fast body diode (trr = 178 ns typ.), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive high-voltage DC/DC converters and onboard chargers.
For engineers reviewing the SQW33N65EF-GE3 datasheet, SQW33N65EF-GE3 pinout, SQW33N65EF-GE3 application, or SQW33N65EF-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) = 0.095 Ω at 10 V, UIS-rated avalanche energy (508 mJ), and reduced Qrr (1.4 μC typ.) enabling high-efficiency hard-switched topologies.
Technical Context
This E-series MOSFET employs optimized silicon process and cell layout to minimize reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and body diode turn-off losses while maintaining low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit (0.095 Ω × 115 nC). Its 175 °C maximum junction temperature supports compact thermal design in space-constrained automotive power stages.
The device integrates a fast-recovery intrinsic body diode with dV/dt immunity up to 50 V/ns and IRRM of 17 A, enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and bidirectional switching applications without external diode supplementation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW33N65M5 | RDS(on) = 0.095 Ω, Qg = 105 nC, trr = 210 ns, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Targeted at industrial SMPS; lacks automotive qualification and body diode speed optimization | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and lower gate charge is prioritized over diode performance |
| IXTH30N65X2 | RDS(on) = 0.105 Ω, Qg = 92 nC, trr = 145 ns, 150 °C TJ max, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Optimized for high-frequency PFC; lower thermal limit restricts continuous 34 A operation above 85 °C ambient | Select for 300–500 kHz PFC stages where diode speed outweighs junction temperature margin |
Compared with STW33N65M5 and IXTH30N65X2, SQW33N65EF-GE3 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 175 °C operation, and sub-200 ns trr-making it the only option qualified for automotive-grade 650 V hard-switched converters requiring long-term reliability at elevated temperature.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SQW33N65EF-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SQW33N65EF-GE3 supports 24 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating assumes proper heatsinking and adherence to the linear derating factor of 2.5 W/°C above 100 °C. At TC = 25 °C, the rating increases to 34 A, and the device maintains full functionality up to TJ = 175 °C.
Is SQW33N65EF-GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification in high-frequency LLC resonant converters?
Yes, SQW33N65EF-GE3 is well-suited for synchronous rectification in LLC converters due to its fast body diode (trr = 178 ns typ., IRRM = 17 A) and low Qrr (1.4 μC typ.). These characteristics reduce reverse recovery losses and enable precise timing control during zero-current switching transitions, especially at 200–300 kHz operating frequencies common in high-density EV power supplies.
Does SQW33N65EF-GE3 have lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free construction?
Yes, SQW33N65EF-GE3 is explicitly marked as lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free per Vishay's ordering information and material categorization documentation. The "-GE3" suffix denotes Vishay's standard green packaging, compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709B requirements for hazardous substance limitations.
What is the typical gate-to-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range for SQW33N65EF-GE3?
The SQW33N65EF-GE3 has a VGS(th) range of 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25 °C and ID = 250 μA, as confirmed in its Specifications table. This threshold ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while providing noise immunity against spurious triggering in noisy automotive environments.
How does the avalanche energy rating of SQW33N65EF-GE3 compare to standard 650 V MOSFETs?
SQW33N65EF-GE3 delivers 508 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) under standardized test conditions (VDD = 140 V, L = 28.2 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 6.0 A), exceeding typical 650 V MOSFETs by 20–35 %. This higher rating stems from its rugged silicon structure and is validated per JEDEC JESD24-1, making SQW33N65EF-GE3 suitable for unclamped inductive switching in fault-tolerant power designs.
