Product details

Gate charge and switching speed

The SIHB120N60E-T5-GE3: These numbers tell the gate-drive designer how much current the driver must supply to hit the target switching frequency — a 45 nC gate charge at 100 kHz switching draws 4.5 mA average from the driver, well within the capability of a standard MOSFET driver IC. The 1562 pF input capacitance also influences the turn-on delay; a driver with 2 A peak source current charges the gate in roughly 23 ns, keeping switching losses manageable in hard-switched topologies.

Thermal and package integration

Housed in the D²PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package, the SIHB120N60E-T5-GE3 dissipates up to 179 W at the case. The exposed drain tab on the top of the package must be soldered to a copper pad on the PCB with adequate thermal vias to the inner ground plane — the junction-to-case thermal path is the limiting factor, not the package itself.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional alternative to SIHB120N60E-T5-GE3?

The SIHB053N60E-GE3 is a higher-current sibling in the same E series, rated 47 A continuous drain and 54 mOhm Rds(on) — roughly double the current capability at half the on-resistance. The SIHB30N60E-GE3 is closer in current (29 A) but has a higher gate charge (130 nC) and slightly higher on-resistance (125 mOhm). Both share the same D²PAK footprint and 600 V rating, so a board designed for the SIHB120N60E-T5-GE3 can accept either without layout changes, though the gate-drive and thermal design must be re-evaluated for the different gate charge and power dissipation.
