Product details
Overview
SUD25N15-52-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for 150 V drain-source voltage, 25 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 0.052 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It operates up to 175 °C junction temperature and is optimized for PWM switching in primary-side switch applications.
For engineers reviewing the SUD25N15-52-BE3 datasheet, SUD25N15-52-BE3 pinout, SUD25N15-52-BE3 application, or SUD25N15-52-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its TO-252 package thermal performance (RthJC = 0.85 °C/W), avalanche energy rating (31 mJ), and gate charge profile (Qg = 33–40 nC) for high-frequency hard-switching designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching with controlled Qgd/Qgs ratio (12 nC / 9 nC). Its 100 % Rg tested gate resistance (1–3 Ω) ensures consistent turn-on/turn-off timing across production lots.
The device features a source-drain diode with 0.9–1.5 V forward voltage at 25 A and 95–140 ns reverse recovery time, enabling synchronous rectification support in flyback and resonant topologies without external Schottky replacement.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS | 150 V - Supports input voltages up to 120 VAC rectified (≈170 VDC peak) with margin for transient spikes. |
| RDS(on) | 0.052 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Delivers ≤3.25 W conduction loss at 25 A, enabling compact heatsinking in space-constrained SMPS. |
| ID (continuous) | 25 A @ TC = 25 °C - Rated for high-current primary-side switching in offline adapters and industrial power supplies. |
| Qg | 33–40 nC - Enables efficient gate drive with standard 1-A peak drivers at 100–500 kHz switching frequencies. |
| TJ max | 175 °C - Allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating below full current. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP25NF15 | TO-220 package; higher RDS(on) = 0.06 Ω; no 100 % Rg test; RthJC = 1.5 °C/W | Requires larger heatsink and mechanical mounting; unsuitable for ultra-thin adapter designs | Select when through-hole assembly is required and thermal budget allows 0.75 °C/W higher junction-to-case resistance. |
| IRF6644TRPBF | Direct-FET™ package; lower RDS(on) = 0.035 Ω; Qg = 22 nC; 100 % Rg tested; same TO-252 footprint | Higher cost; superior high-frequency efficiency but reduced avalanche ruggedness (EAR = 18 mJ) | Select when switching frequency exceeds 500 kHz and avalanche stress is mitigated by circuit design. |
Compared with STP25NF15 and IRF6644TRPBF, the SUD25N15-52-BE3 delivers optimal balance of ruggedness (31 mJ EAR), thermal performance (0.85 °C/W RthJC), and cost for 100–300 kHz primary-side switching where reliability under transient overload is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the SUD25N15-52-BE3 at 125 °C case temperature?
The SUD25N15-52-BE3 supports 14.5 A continuous drain current at TC = 125 °C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects increased RDS(on) at elevated temperature (0.109 Ω at 125 °C, 0.145 Ω at 175 °C), ensuring safe operation without exceeding 175 °C junction limit. The SUD25N15-52-BE3 maintains reliable conduction even under sustained thermal stress typical in enclosed power supplies.
Does the SUD25N15-52-BE3 have avalanche capability, and how is it rated?
Yes, the SUD25N15-52-BE3 is rated for repetitive avalanche energy of 31 mJ (L = 0.1 mH, duty cycle ≤ 1 %), with a maximum avalanche current of 25 A. This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD24-11 and enables robust operation during inductive switching transients or short-circuit events without external clamping in many designs. The SUD25N15-52-BE3 leverages its trench structure to sustain this energy without parametric shift or failure.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the SUD25N15-52-BE3, and why does it matter for drive circuit design?
The SUD25N15-52-BE3 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2 V to 4 V at ID = 250 µA. This tight distribution ensures predictable turn-on behavior across temperature and process variation. For reliable enhancement, gate drive must exceed 4.5 V minimum-especially at high temperature-since VGS(th) decreases with rising junction temperature. The SUD25N15-52-BE3 achieves full RDS(on) specification only above 10 V VGS, making 12 V gate drive ideal for margin.
How does the TO-252 package of the SUD25N15-52-BE3 improve thermal performance compared to TO-220?
The TO-252 (DPAK) package of the SUD25N15-52-BE3 provides a typical junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.85 °C/W-nearly half that of standard TO-220 packages (~1.5 °C/W)-due to its low-profile, surface-mount construction and direct drain-tab thermal path. This allows higher power density and eliminates mechanical mounting hardware. The SUD25N15-52-BE3 achieves effective cooling using only PCB copper area, reducing system height and assembly cost.
Is the SUD25N15-52-BE3 suitable for synchronous rectification, and what diode characteristics support that use?
Yes, the SUD25N15-52-BE3 integrates a body diode with VSD = 0.9–1.5 V at IF = 25 A and trr = 95–140 ns, making it viable for synchronous rectification in flyback and forward converters. Its low reverse recovery charge (Qrr ≈ 120–180 nC, derived from trr and dI/dt) minimizes switching loss and EMI. When used as a synchronous rectifier, the SUD25N15-52-BE3 replaces external Schottky diodes while maintaining low forward drop and fast recovery.
