2N7334 MOSFET — Specifications & Equivalents

About the 2N7334

The 2N7334 is a MOSFET with a drain–source voltage (V_DS) rating of 100 V and a continuous drain current (I_D) of 1 A. It can dissipate up to 1.4 W and is rated to a junction temperature of 150 °C. It is supplied in the MO-036AB package.

At a glance

• Type: MOSFET

• Package: MO-036AB
• Manufacturer: Multi-source (JEDEC registered part number)

Typical applications

With its 100 V drain–source rating the 2N7334 sits in the medium-voltage class of switching MOSFETs, typically found in 48 V and 96 V distribution systems, solar and telecom power stages, DC motor drives and intermediate-bus DC-DC converters.

At 1 A it is aimed at small-signal and light-load switching rather than power conversion.

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.

Switching behaviour is characterised by an output capacitance (C_oss) of 82 pF, which together with the gate drive determines switching loss and the practical upper frequency limit.

Choosing a replacement for the 2N7334

A drop-in substitute for the 2N7334 should match its polarity and offer a drain–source rating of at least 100 V and a continuous drain current rating of at least 1 A.

Mechanically, check the replacement against the MO-036AB footprint and confirm the pin order — parts sharing a package outline do not always share a pinout.

Because 2N7334 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 2N7334?

The 2N7334 is a MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). It is rated for 100 V drain-source and 1 A continuous drain current.

What is the maximum voltage of the 2N7334?

The 2N7334 has a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 100 V. Treat this as an absolute maximum and design with margin, especially when switching inductive loads.

How much current can the 2N7334 handle?

It is rated for 1 A of continuous drain current, with power dissipation limited to 1.4 W. Real-world capability depends on your heatsinking and ambient temperature.

What package does the 2N7334 come in?

It is listed in MO-036AB. Verify the pinout of the specific variant, as one outline can carry different pin assignments.

What can I use to replace the 2N7334?

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.
