IRF3205 MOSFET: Datasheet, Features, Equivalent
As a HEXFET power field-effect transistor, the IRF3205 also possesses high current handling and voltage tolerance capabilities,
The IRF3205 inverter circuit is commonly used as 12V DC DIY inverters to get 110/230V AC, especially in medium to high-power applications. Inverters are the circuits that convert direct current (DC) from the battery into alternating current (AC).
The gate threshold voltage of the IRF3205 is typically between 2 and 4 volts, so make sure that the output pin of the microcontroller can provide sufficient voltage to turn on the MOSFET. Additionally, a flyback diode should be connected in parallel with the load to protect the MOSFET from voltage spikes generated by the inductive load.
A1: While the IRF3205 can operate with a Gate voltage as low as 4V, it is recommended to use a Gate driver or a logic-level MOSFET for optimal performance when working with 5V logic. Q2: What is the maximum current the IRF3205 can handle?
It is important to note that the voltage level of the microcontroller output pin should match the gate threshold voltage of the IRF3205 MOSFET. The gate threshold voltage of the IRF3205 is typically between 2 and 4 volts, so make sure that the output pin of the microcontroller can provide sufficient voltage to turn on the MOSFET.
