The drain-source breakdown voltage of a MOSFET is the maximum voltage that can be applied between the drain and source terminals without causing damage to the it. It is also known as as the drain-source avalanche voltage. This voltage value is specified by the manufacturer and is dependent on the MOSFET's technology, design, and operating conditions such as temperature and current.
