Hi All
I would like to drive a mosfet to control heated grips on a motorcycle.
It's 12V, and have a recommandation for 5Amps fuse for protection.
It would be fully variable control with PWM of a 16f628a, which I know how to do(yeah at least).
but then, what MOSFet is good for PWM at power level??
Now I see some circuit for motors, that use quite beefy components, 120A..60A!
I'm not too sure about their compatibility with my type of application, which would be safe...
Could I find a mosfet that can be driven strait from the PWM pin?
I know small transistor need to work at satured level, but what about big mosfet?
thanks!
