In this post I have explained the main differences between an IGBT and a MOSFeT device. I have explained more about the facts from the following article. Comparing IGTB with power MOSFETs The insulated-gate bipolar transistor features a voltage drop which is significantly low when compared to a conventional MOSFET in the devices which have […]

12V, 24V, 1 Amp MOSFET SMPS Circuit
The post investigates a cheap Chinese made 12V, 1 amp MOSFET based smps circuit which can be modified into 24V 1 amp, or 12V 2 amp smps circuits also. The MOSFET used is STB9NK60Z which is a highly advanced, rugged 600V 7A device specially manufactured for high, unpredictable, voltage environment circuit applications. Reverse Engineering a 12V […]
How to Protect MOSFETs – Basics Explained
In this post I will comprehensively explain how to protect mosfets and prevent mosfet burning in electronic circuits by following some basic guidelines related to correct PCB layout, and careful manual handling of these sensitive devices. Introduction Even after connecting everything correctly you find the mosfets in your circuit becoming HOT and blowing off within […]
Half-Bridge Mosfet Driver IC IRS2153(1)D Datasheet
In this post I have explained the datasheet, specifications, pinout configurations and a few application circuit for the IC IRS2153 which is a half-bridge IC from Texas Instruments. The unique feature of this half bridge driver is that it does not have to depend on external logic sources for the operations, rather allows configuring its […]
Low Power MOSFET 200mA, 60 Volts Datasheet
In this post I have explained the main specs and pinouts of a small signal, low power N-channel mosfet 2N7000G. Mosfets vs BJTs When we talk of mosfets we normally associate it with high current, high voltage, and with high power applications. However, just like ordinary BJTs, small signal mosftes are also available which may […]
High Current MOSFET IRFP2907 Datasheet
In this post I have explained the main features datasheet of high current N-Channel mosfet IRFP2907 which is rated to handle up to a staggering 209 amps of continuous current at a reasonably massive 75 volts. High Current Specs With the advent of mosfets, switching huge power through compact packages has become particularly feasible. Take […]
