How to use IRFP460A

The MOSFET is a voltage-controlled device, which means that for it to switch on, a voltage must be present at the gate (with respect to the source). The IRFP460A has a gate threshold voltage of 2V to 4V in this situation, and it only just begins to conduct at this value. The gate voltage must be at least 10V to produce the specified-on resistance of 0.27. The gate voltage has a maximum limit of 20V, after which the gate can be damaged.

In the low-side switching mode, power MOSFETs like the IRFP460A are commonly employed. The MOSFET is utilized to switch an inductive load at a frequency of 10kHz in the interactive simulation linked below. The diode across the inductor prevents the MOSFET from being damaged by voltage spikes. The 10K pulldown resistor ensures that the MOSFET is turned off by default and not unintentionally turned on.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is N channel Mosfet?
N-Channel MOSFET is a type of metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor that is categorized under the field-effect transistors (FET). MOSFET transistor operation is based on the capacitor. This type of transistor is also known as an insulated-gate field-effect transistor (IGFET).
What is IRFP460A?
Vishay's IRFP460A is an N-channel power MOSFET that offers the best combination of low on-resistance and quick switching. This is a high-voltage device in a TO-247 package with a drain-source breakdown of 500V.
What is the symbol of MOSFET?
The line in the MOSFET symbol between the drain (D) and source (S) connections represents the transistors semiconductive channel. If this channel line is a solid unbroken line then it represents a “Depletion” (normally-ON) type MOSFET as drain current can flow with zero gates biasing potential.
