  • NOTICE THERE IS AN ERROR IN ONE OF THE SCHEMATICS: Q2 in the drawing has the collector and emitter reversed. The emitter should be grounded not the collector.
    In this video I show how to use N-Channel MOSFET's. This video mostly pertains to 12 volt systems but I talk a little bit about using higher voltages. I also show how to use a MOSFET with a microcontroller.

    A really nice and simple instructions video. And not so fast talking. Many of this kind of videos is so fast talking and especially for us that don't use English as first language it's really hard to keep up with. U just got yourself a new subscriber. Hope to see more videos like this.

    You may want to check out TTL NPNs like the IRLB3813, IRLB8743, and IRLB3034. The Rds(on) @ 4.5V is so low that they can drain 10A without getting warm!

    Can you help my sir?
    I have unusual problem I have positive voltage regulator insude my dashboard and I have 4 pin gm ignition module.
    So my problem is my E core type ignition coil does not get enough voltage on engin start up when its cold so I do have gm R terminal bypass wire on my starter selenoid.
    I tryed to use that pin with a diode.
    But my fuse pops .
    Aperantly bouth my ignition module and linear dashboard voltage regulator are polarity sensitive.
    So can I fix some how that problem?
    Can I replace my linear voltage regulator with somthing ells?
    I also wanted to make magnet alternator to charge my baterry faster I wanted to keap my bridge rectifier what shuld I use to make dc voltage regulator? Prevent my baterry from over charging?
    I have 3rd problem for some odd reason my blinker relay goes havoc on my .
    And my engin refuse to stop when all 4 blinkers are turned on it is a 3 pin flasher relay can I solve that backcharging problem with a diode?
    And where do I put that thing on the 3 pin flasher relay?
    My car does some real odd things so I was wondering is there some ground protection circuet who can prevent back charge?

    Thanks! :) useful, I did the setup. But was enhancement VS depletion type mosfets mentioned?, I think that lacks in a lot of mosfet videos, I was playing around with some mosfet i pulled off some junk, and couldn't get it to work the same way, to make mine stay on, i had to put the resistor to positive instead, it wouldn't stay on, it was an enhancement type, this depletion if I am right.

  • @PeterB96
    @PeterB96 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Is it not possible to just use one NPN transistor at the start to switch the 12 volts on, which then goes into the gate of the MOSFET, rather than using both NPN and PNP BJTs?

    • @Eman2000
      @Eman2000  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've tried different configs but found this one to work out quite will. Feel free to experiment with it.

    • @GnuReligion
      @GnuReligion 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah. I habitually use optocouplers to drain or sink mosfet gates to the load supplies, so there are no worries about relative voltages. They are cheap!

  • @spalxy
    @spalxy 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very nice video. I have a similar use case, however my LED strip is at 24V 2A and i've used a IRL540N logic level mosfet. I do however get a huge voltage drop of 3.4V drain-to-source. Any advice what i could be doing wrong ?

    • @Eman2000
      @Eman2000  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you. How much LED strip are you trying to run? Those logic level FET's tend to have a fairly high resistance. But is shouldn't be that bad.

    • @spalxy
      @spalxy 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Its 3 meters long, about 48W (24V at 2A). I'm currently considering a DC-DC converter to up the voltage just before the strip (as the current is already there), however that looks ugly as a solution so i was hoping i'm missing something with the fet and there would be a prettier solution :)

    • @Eman2000
      @Eman2000  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It definitely shouldn't have that much of a drop. You might want to check and see what the voltage is on the gate pin of the MOSFET. It almost seems if it isn't getting turned on fully.

    Very useful! Thank you.
    I have an arduino nano with yet to be delivered MOSFET IRFZ44N which is going to power a 1 meter 5050 smd led strip (not much of a load - consumption wise). Would hooking the gate of the mosfet directly to the output pin 13 of the Arduino do the job? Or the 5V of the arduino wouldn't trigger the gate enough for the mosfet to properly switch the led strip on?
    cheers, Nino

    • @Eman2000
      @Eman2000  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you found it useful. Yes I think you should be fine hooking the gate pin directly to the microcontroller for a short length of LED strip. Just check to make sure that the MOSFET doesn't get too warm. I don't think it will with such a small load but it won't hurt to check.

    Can you help me for Dimming COB DC lamp with 28V 670mA?
    1. TIP41C BJT [100V 6A 65W] it is getting to much hot.
    2. IRF540 MOSFET[100V 30A 150W] it is not giving effective dimming
    Other Option is to use TIP120C BJT[60V 5A], IRF520 MOSFET[100V 10A]

  • @paparoysworkshop
    @paparoysworkshop 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think I will try the same setup but use an optocoupler to connect them and see what happens. I've accidentally fried a few arduinos so I like to keep the higher voltage away from them.

    • @SuperFredAZ
      @SuperFredAZ 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      no need for opto-couplers, a simple NPN or N-Channel transistor will do. A 4.7 K resistor to supply voltage, source or emitter to ground and a current limiting resistor, e.g. 10K to base and then the other end is control. Of course the sense is opposite.

    Weird way to draw schematics, it's not unintentional that schematics shown in books or in schools been drawn the way drain stands upwards and source downwards. I don't want to argue with you, but understanding the schematic is essential, and with rotated items it's harder.
    And to be honest with you, that diode (To Load) on the schematic points the wrong way, this way it won't work ever. Maybe you wanted to show where the load should be, but instead of a diode, you could put a resistor or a light bulb there. It's late, I'm going to sleep.
