Nexperia USA Inc.
Superior upgrade from Nexperia with higher current (310mA) and lower Rds(on) (1.6Ω) in the same SOT-323 package.
The 2N7002W is a versatile 60V N-Channel MOSFET in a compact SOT-323 package, widely used for switching applications. Several pin-compatible alternatives exist, often providing upgraded current handling and lower on-resistance.
Candidates offer improved current and Rds(on) ratings.
All key candidates use the same standard SOT-323 package.
Direct replacement for 2N7002W should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
2N7002BKW,115 from Nexperia is a recommended upgrade path due to superior electrical characteristics and manufacturer reputation.
The primary risk, though low, is a mismatch in gate drive requirements or subtle dynamic switching characteristics. Verification is recommended.

| Feature / factor | 2N7002W | 2N7002BKW,115 | 2N7002KW | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | SOT-323 | SOT-323 | SOT-323 | SOT-323 — Package matches target.; 2N7002KW: Package matches target. | |
| Voltage | 60 V | 60 V | 1.0V - 2.0V | 60 V / 1.0V - 2.0V — Drain-Source Voltage (Vds) matches.; 2N7002KW: Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th)) range is compatible. | |
| Current | 115 mA | 310 mA | 300 mA | 310 mA / 300 mA — Continuous Drain Current (Id) is significantly higher.; 2N7002KW: Continuous Drain Current (Id) is higher. | |
| Resistance | < 5.0 Ω @ 10V | 1.6 Ω @ 10V | 2.2 Ω @ 10V | 1.6 Ω @ 10V / 2.2 Ω @ 10V — RDS(on) is significantly lower, a performance upgrade.; 2N7002KW: RDS(on) is lower, indicating better efficiency. | |
| Lifecycle | Active | Active | - | Active — Both parts are active. |
Verified drop-in options for 2N7002W are limited in the current batch. Review candidates marked Strong match or Datasheet verified, and validate package, pinout, and electrical limits before committing a BOM change.
