Product details
Overview
SUP60N06-12P-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for 60 V drain-source voltage, 60 A continuous drain current (package-limited), and 12.0 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features 100 % UIS and Rg tested reliability, halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction, and is optimized for synchronous rectification in high-efficiency DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SUP60N06-12P-GE3 datasheet, SUP60N06-12P-GE3 pinout, SUP60N06-12P-GE3 application, or SUP60N06-12P-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.25 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 33 nC total gate charge, 1970 pF input capacitance, and TO-220AB package suitability for industrial power supply thermal management.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology to achieve low on-resistance with fast switching performance. Its dynamic parameters-33 nC Qg, 110 pF Crss, and 11–20 ns turn-on delay-support high-frequency operation up to 500 kHz in hard-switched topologies.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 40–80 ns reverse recovery time and 64–120 nC Qrr, enabling reliable synchronous rectification without external Schottky diodes. Thermal design is anchored by RthJC = 1.25 °C/W and RthJA = 40 °C/W (PCB mount), validated under 1" FR-4 board conditions.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 48 V input systems and 12 V/24 V output rails. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 0.012 Ω - Enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 10 A, critical for thermally constrained power stages. |
| ID (continuous) | 60 A - Package-limited rating requiring heatsinking above ~25 °C case temperature per derating curve. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP60NF06L | RDS(on) = 0.014 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 45 nC; TO-220FP package (insulated flange) | Higher gate charge increases driver loss; insulated flange simplifies heatsink mounting but adds 0.5 mm height | Prefer when electrical isolation of drain from heatsink is mandatory and 12 % higher RDS(on) is acceptable. |
| IRFZ44NPBF | RDS(on) = 0.028 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 67 nC; no UIS testing; legacy planar process | Lower avalanche ruggedness and higher conduction loss limit use to low-reliability consumer-grade designs | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-critical 24 V applications where 60 A rating is not required and thermal margin is ample. |
Compared with STP60NF06L and IRFZ44NPBF, SUP60N06-12P-GE3 delivers superior thermal performance (1.25 °C/W vs. ≥1.5 °C/W), lower switching loss (33 nC vs. ≥45 nC), and guaranteed avalanche capability-making it optimal for industrial and telecom power stages demanding long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SUP60N06-12P-GE3?
The SUP60N06-12P-GE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 60 A at TC = 25 °C, limited by package thermal capacity-not silicon capability. At TC = 70 °C, the rating drops to 54 A per the derating curve. This value assumes proper heatsinking and PCB copper area per Vishay's recommended layout guidelines in Document 69070.
Is SUP60N06-12P-GE3 suitable for synchronous rectification in a 500 kHz buck converter?
Yes, SUP60N06-12P-GE3 supports synchronous rectification at 500 kHz due to its 33 nC total gate charge, 110 pF reverse transfer capacitance, and 40–80 ns body diode reverse recovery time. Its low RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss, while fast switching reduces transition loss-provided gate drive strength exceeds 1 A peak and layout minimizes parasitic inductance.
Does SUP60N06-12P-GE3 have a fully rated avalanche capability?
Yes, SUP60N06-12P-GE3 is 100 % UIS (unclamped inductive switching) tested per JEDEC JESD24-11, guaranteeing 80 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy at TJ = 25 °C. This rating is validated across production lots and enables robust operation in inductive switching applications without external protection components.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for SUP60N06-12P-GE3?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for SUP60N06-12P-GE3 is specified from 2.5 V to 4.5 V at ID = 250 µA. This range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 3.3 V logic-level gate drivers, while maintaining noise immunity against spurious turn-on in noisy power environments.
How does the halogen-free status of SUP60N06-12P-GE3 impact its compliance profile?
SUP60N06-12P-GE3 meets IEC 61249-2-21 halogen-free definition and RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, meaning total bromine + chlorine content is <900 ppm and no intentionally added halogenated flame retardants are used. This supports WEEE compliance and e-waste recycling requirements without compromising thermal or electrical performance.
