IRF640N Power Amp DC 12v

IRF640 Description

The IRF640 is an N Channel MOSFET designed for fast switching. This high-speed switching capability can be extremely useful in applications where switching speed is critical, such as a UPS circuit or any other application where a user wants to change the load input power from one source to another.

The transistor can drive a load of up to 18A and has a maximum voltage of 200V with a minimum saturation voltage of 2V to 4V at its gate. The pulsed drain current of 72A indicates that this MOSFET can drive a load of up to 72A at short intervals or when the load is not continuously connected and is only connected for 300us (Microseconds) with a duty cycle of 1.5%.


IRF640N Description

The IR MOSFET series of power MOSFETs use proven silicon technologies to provide designers with a diverse device portfolio to serve a variety of applications including DC motors, inverters, SMPS, lights, load switches, and battery-powered applications. For ease of design, the devices come in a choice of surface mount and through-hole packaging with industry-standard footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does MOSFET work?

It works by varying the width of a channel along which charge carriers flow (electrons or holes). The charge carriers enter the channel at the source and exit via the drain. The width of the channel is controlled by the voltage on an electrode called a gate which is located between the source and drain.

What is IRF640?

IRF640 is an N Channel MOSFET designed for high-speed switching purposes. This high-speed switching capability can be very useful in applications where switching speed is crucial, for example in a UPS circuit or in any other application where a user wants to change the load input power from one source to another.

What is P channel Mosfet?

P-Channel MOSFET is a classification of Metal Oxide Semiconductor Device. This consists of the n-substrate in the middle with light doping concentration. 

What is the difference between N-channel and P-channel MOSFET?

Then the P-channel MOSFET is used to switch the positive supply to the motor for the forwarding direction (high-side switching) while the N-channel MOSFET is used to switch the negative supply to the motor for the reverse direction (low-side switching).

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).
