Product details
Overview
2N6661JTX02 from Vishay Siliconix is a military-qualified N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET designed for low-voltage, high-reliability switching in space-constrained analog and digital interface circuits. It features 90 V drain-source breakdown voltage, 3.6 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 1.6 V gate threshold voltage, 35 pF input capacitance, and 6 ns turn-on time - enabling direct TTL/CMOS logic-level drive in solid-state relay and solenoid control applications.
For engineers reviewing the 2N6661JTX02 datasheet, 2N6661JTX02 pinout, 2N6661JTX02 application, or 2N6661JTX02 equivalent, key selection criteria include its JANTX-level qualification with soldered leads, TO-205AD (TO-39) metal-can package, guaranteed -55 °C to +150 °C operation, and verified low-leakage performance under extended temperature stress.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single N-channel power switch with drain connected to case, requiring isolated mounting when case bias differs from system ground. Its low 1.6 V VGS(th) enables reliable turn-on from 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level-shifting circuitry.
Thermal design centers on RthJC = 20 °C/W and RthJA = 170 °C/W, with pulsed drain current limited to 3 A by junction temperature constraints. Switching behavior is stable across temperature due to intrinsic independence of tON/tOFF from operating junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 90 V - supports rail voltages up to 72 V DC in Hi-Rel systems without breakdown risk |
| RDS(on) | 3.6 Ω at VGS = 10 V - delivers ≤0.86 A continuous drain current with <1.5 V conduction drop |
| VGS(th) | 1.6 V typical - ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic outputs |
| Ciss | 35 pF - minimizes gate drive power and allows direct microcontroller GPIO driving |
| tON | 6 ns - enables >100 MHz switching in pulse-width modulation and timing-critical drivers |
| IDSS | 1 μA at VDS = 72 V - guarantees negligible off-state leakage in battery-operated systems |
| PD | 6.25 W at TC = 25 °C - requires heatsinking above ~0.5 W sustained dissipation in sealed enclosures |
Pinout & Package
2N6661JTX02 uses the TO-205AD (TO-39 tall lid) metal-can package with case-connected drain. The hermetically sealed package meets MIL-PRF-19500 requirements and supports soldered lead attachment per JANTX specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Top View: Left) | Drain (D) | Electrically tied to metal case - must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to same potential |
| 2 (Top View: Center) | Gate (G) | High-impedance control terminal - sensitive to ESD; requires gate resistor for robust switching |
| 3 (Top View: Right) | Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive; forms return path for load current and defines VGS reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Military qualification (JANTX) | Screened per MIL-PRF-19500/505, including burn-in, temperature cycling, and PIND testing |
| Low VGS(th) (1.6 V typ.) | Enables direct interface with 3.3 V FPGA I/O banks and low-power microcontrollers without gate buffers |
| Case-connected drain | Reduces thermal resistance to heatsink but mandates electrical isolation unless drain is system ground |
| Low Ciss (35 pF) | Limits gate charge to ~15 pC - reduces driver power loss and simplifies layout in high-density PCBs |
| Guaranteed RDS(on) ≤ 4 Ω | Ensures predictable conduction loss across -55 °C to +125 °C, critical for unregulated battery systems |
Applications
| Solid-State Relay Control | TTL/CMOS Direct Interface |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2N6660JTX02 | Lower VDS = 60 V; identical RDS(on), VGS(th), and package | Restricted to ≤48 V systems; unsuitable for 72 V Hi-Rel bus architectures | Select only when maximum drain voltage is confirmed ≤60 V and cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin |
| 2N7000-E3 | Commercial-grade TO-92; VDS = 60 V, RDS(on) = 5 Ω, no military screening | Lacks PIND, burn-in, and temperature cycling validation; not rated for aerospace deployment | Acceptable for lab prototypes or non-critical industrial controls where qualification traceability is not required |
Compared with 2N6661JTX02, the 2N6660JTX02 offers identical drive characteristics but sacrifices 30 V voltage headroom, while the 2N7000-E3 reduces cost and size at the expense of reliability assurance, thermal robustness, and hermetic sealing - making it unsuitable for mission-critical deployments.

FAQ
What is the qualified temperature range for 2N6661JTX02?
The 2N6661JTX02 is fully characterized and screened for operation from -55 °C to +150 °C. This includes guaranteed parameters such as VGS(th), RDS(on), and IDSS across that full range, with thermal derating applied above TC = 100 °C per the absolute maximum ratings table. The 2N6661JTX02 meets MIL-STD-883 requirements for temperature cycling and storage.
Is 2N6661JTX02 pin-compatible with commercial 2N6661 variants?
Yes - the 2N6661JTX02 shares identical TO-205AD (TO-39) mechanical outline and pin assignment (Drain-Gate-Source) with all 2N6661 family members, including 2N6661, 2N6661-E3, and 2N6661JANTX. However, only the JTX02 variant includes soldered leads per DSCC drawing requirements; lead finish and plating differ from Au-lead versions.
Does 2N6661JTX02 have a body diode, and what is its forward voltage?
Yes, the 2N6661JTX02 integrates an inherent parasitic body diode between source and drain. Its forward voltage VSD is specified as 0.9 V typical at IS = 0.86 A and TA = 25 °C. This diode is not rated for continuous conduction but provides freewheeling capability in inductive load switching applications involving the 2N6661JTX02.
What is the gate charge requirement for 2N6661JTX02?
The total gate charge Qg for 2N6661JTX02 is 15 pC typical at VDS = 45 V and ID = 1.0 A. This low value enables fast switching with minimal driver power consumption and allows direct drive from low-current GPIO pins when paired with a series gate resistor to control dV/dt and ringing.
How does the case-connected drain affect PCB layout for 2N6661JTX02?
Because the drain terminal is electrically bonded to the metal case of the 2N6661JTX02, the mounting surface must either be at the same potential as the drain node or electrically insulated using a thermally conductive but dielectric pad or washer. Failure to isolate the case from other potentials may cause short circuits or ground loops in multi-rail systems using the 2N6661JTX02.
