2N7219 MOSFET — Specifications & Equivalents

About the 2N7219

The 2N7219 is a MOSFET with a drain–source voltage (V_DS) rating of 200 V and a continuous drain current (I_D) of 18 A. It can dissipate up to 125 W and is rated to a junction temperature of 150 °C. It is supplied in the TO254 package.

At a glance

Typical applications

With its 200 V drain–source rating the 2N7219 sits in the medium-high-voltage class of switching MOSFETs, typically found in telecom and industrial DC rails, boost and flyback converters, LED and backlight drivers and power-factor-correction stages. Common where the bus sits well above 100 V but below rectified mains.

Gate drive and switching notes

Keep gate–source voltage within the ±20 V maximum; exceeding it punctures the gate oxide and destroys the device permanently.

Choosing a replacement for the 2N7219

A drop-in substitute for the 2N7219 should match its polarity and offer a drain–source rating of at least 200 V and a continuous drain current rating of at least 18 A.

Mechanically, check the replacement against the TO254 footprint and confirm the pin order — parts sharing a package outline do not always share a pinout.

Because 2N7219 is a JEDEC-registered part number rather than one vendor's proprietary series, it is produced by several manufacturers. Datasheet figures vary slightly between them, so check the datasheet of the brand you actually buy — this also makes like-for-like sourcing easier.

Where the application switches inductive loads or runs near the voltage limit, keep extra headroom rather than choosing a part that only just meets the original numbers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 2N7219?

The 2N7219 is a MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). It is rated for 200 V drain-source and 18 A continuous drain current.

What is the maximum voltage of the 2N7219?

The 2N7219 has a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 200 V. Treat this as an absolute maximum and design with margin, especially when switching inductive loads.

How much current can the 2N7219 handle?

It is rated for 18 A of continuous drain current, with power dissipation limited to 125 W. Real-world capability depends on your heatsinking and ambient temperature.

What package does the 2N7219 come in?

It is listed in TO254. Verify the pinout of the specific variant, as one outline can carry different pin assignments.

What can I use to replace the 2N7219?

This page lists 17 candidate equivalents matched on electrical ratings and package. Any replacement should meet or exceed the original voltage, current and dissipation figures and use a compatible drive level.
