Can anybody suggest a cheap, easily obtainable > = 400 V, < 2A thru hole MOSFET, preferably one that's designed more for analog use than for sub-ns switching. Thanks. I'm looking to squeeze a cathode follower into an existing vacuum tube amp and adding one MOSFET is easier than adding half a 12AT7.

I am mostly an RF engineer , but our analog guy moved on and I am doing a little bit of sustaining of his stuff. In looking at one of his circuits I have gone back to the basics on JFET and MOSFETS. I am seeing that the basic electrical characteristics of a depletion MOSFET is similar to a JFET (I see the difference in enhancement MOSFET - ie - they are generally in an off state a

I was looking for a high voltage MOSFET with a low drain source resistance. I was considering this: http://au.rs-online.com/web/p/mosfet-transistors/8647925/ I cannot reconcile the information given there. Figure 3 indicates that at 25 degrees, an Id of 5.5 amps and Vgs of 10V will give an Rds of about 320 milliohms. So go to Figure 8, and for the same conditions it gives an Rds of ...

How about it? Experiments of the third kind , take 999999. Update Hotplate design, stabilizing the heater MOSFET http://panteltje.com/pub/thermos_box_mounting_plus_heater_circuit_diagram_IMG_3415.JPG shows the quick sketch diagram of the MOSFET driver. The idea is that the current through the MOSFET is exactly proportional to the input voltage. As we all know, MOSFETs like to do t...

Looking for a MOSFET with a 100 or 150-200 (would be better), Vds N-channel that can switch a couple amps at a couple MHz, preferably in D-pak or something for ease of compact Manhattan-prototyping. MOSFET-selection is always problematic for me there are so many and the parameters like temperature de-rating and how fast you can switch it at a given temperature all interact so it's hard ...
A quiet forward converter likes only one MOSFET -- why?

Hi, I have been trying to build a low-power multiple-output converter that has no regulation at the secondary side. Its purpose is to power many floating MOSFET drivers, so a reasonably too low voltage is not a problem, but to high certainly is. Particularly, the experiments involved powering a mock-up SiC MOSFET driver with +15/-3.3V rails. Therefore, the smoothness of the transition ...

The subject MOSFET is a C2M0280120D, a serious 1.2kV SiC TO-247 MOSFET. The scope pic shows driving it with a -3.6 to +16.5V gate pulse, 100ns long in this case, and it's switching a 50-ohm resistor from +200V, or 4A (part of my fast HV pulser project.) I previously had it making a burst of five 15ns-long 250V 5A pulses, and everything was fine, perfect. But after fooling ar...

I need to be able to model a mosfet with values of L, W, Vth, Kprime, lamba and gamma, and I'm trying to figure out how to do this with LTSpice. Looking at ltspice mosfet models, they don't have a separate value for K. They have Cgs, W and L. K is a function of Cgs, W, L, and electron mobility. So I could sort of kluge my own mosfet model by choosing Cgs so that K comes out just right. ...

Updated the diagram for the 'on' and 'off' touch button MOSFET added. http://panteltje.com/pub/sc2_pwr_diagram_2_img_3235.jpg This MOSFET is in a funny place, between the 2 batteries, this is to get enough drive once it is on. The BLACK button bridges the MOSFET, this starts the boost converter, then the PIC comparator senses if the battery is higher than 2.0V, if so it gives +5V to the M...

I happened upon this today while looking at other things... BSS126 - 600V, 500 ohms, Idss = 21mA. https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/power/mosfet/60v-600v-n-channel-depletion-mode-mosfet/ I've not used any depletion MOSFETs but I know some of you guys are fans (and I hope to join the fan club someday too)!

Hi, I need to slowly drive a high-voltage high-side MOSFET in a 5kV isolated setup. This use case reminds an electronic fuse: the MOSFET is expected to be almost always ON, but the driver needs to start in an OFF condition. Generally the answer would be Si8261, but it requires ~50mW. So I have devised a much less energy hungry driver based on a tiny 1:1 bipolar drive pulse transformer ...

Hi everyone, I am trying to test a MOSFET H-bridge at around 400V DC input. I need to observe the MOSFET Drain-Source waveforms for ringing during the on to off state (and vice versa) switching. I observe that the drain to source waveform is affected by the DC source that I use to supply in the input DC voltage to the MOSFET H-bridge. We have three different sources (including one ...

I have a 75332P MOSFET on a cordless drill controller heatsink. I guess it's part of a pulse width modulator. The drain (flange) connects directly to one of the battery terminals. Does the MOSFET drain go directly to the battery minus/ground terminal? Or does it go to the battery plus terminal? Thanks. -- My application... I'm desperately trying to develop a better inline ...

Hi I am using the 74AC14 for driving a medium power MOSFET I need it dirt cheap, so no external small signal MOSFET to help to drive the power MOSFET possible 74AC14, which is very cheap, has 24mA drive, ca. 0.65V, which translates to euquivalent RDSon to about 26 ohms http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/149/74ACT14-1006522.pdf I could parallel 2 of them, but since my input is slowly moving,...

All, I have been doing some testing using the NTE2382 N-channel MOSFET for a 24V application. http://www.nteinc.com/specs/2300to2399/pdf/nte2382.pdf 1.) Test 1 - MOSFET turned off. The 24V input is connected to the drain of the FET. The gate is tied to ground. 0V is measured on the source. Notes: This is what I expect to see when the FET is off - 0V on the output. 2.) Test ...

I found old mosfet transistor IRF843, using 20k and 70k resistor, i manage to set the voltage at transistor gate to 3.9 volt and using 1uF to channel the 27mhz rf signal to the transistor gate, i manage to get an audio from 8ohm speaker connected to the transistor drain. I'm using about 5.3 volt power supply from transformer. The audio is loud and clear. The mosfet gate can received
