6. Frequently Asked Questions
▶>
Yes. Its high pulse current rating and avalanche energy capabilities allow it to handle inductive load surges, especially in brushed DC motors.
>
It’s commonly used for battery protection, load switching, and power path control in EV battery packs and UPS inverters.
>
Similar devices include IRLZ44N, IRF1405, or STP75NF75 – depending on desired current, gate charge, and switching speed.
>
Not ideal. It typically requires 10V gate drive. For 5V logic-level operation, IRL versions are preferred.
>
Yes, but ensure equal current sharing with low RDS(on) matching, and use appropriate gate resistors to avoid shoot-through.
