Mosfets are similar to transistors, except they operate slightly differently at a lower level. Commonly used for driving motors and high loads, they're extremely useful.
When you need to switch a lot of power, N channel MOSFETs are best for the job. These FETs can switch over 60A and 30V and are TO-220 package so they fit nicely...
If you’ve ever wondered how to control the headlight of a car from a microcontroller, a MOSFET is what you need. The IRF5305 is a very common MOSFET with very low on-resistance and a control voltage (aka gate voltage) that is compatible with most 5V microcontroller or mechanical switches. This allows you to control high-power devices with very low-power control mechanisms.
In most Arduino projects, relays are the first choice to drive some large current device. It requires a certain amount of current to drive the internal coil to pick-up...
The MOSWITCH is a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch implemented with MOSFETs, with a very small footprint (2cm x 2cm). The diagram below shows the...
Sparky the Blue Smoke Monster shows up whenever the magic smoke is let of of an electronic component. And his very favorite is whenever folks first start...
