I would like to purchase one of your modded circuit current limiting pwm's off you if possible.
perhaps u could email me ... thring@shaw.ca
I know you have undergone surgery, and not sure if youre up to it yet

Just becuase you are Paranoid doesn't mean that they are NOT out to get you!

MosFet a goodun'
by SeaMonkey » Tue Jul 01, 2008 10:22 pm
Your research into the specs on your MosFet has affirmed that it is indeed a high current device. That is very good.
The kit may be limited to 20 Amperes in order to keep the MosFet cool and to keep from overstressing the circuit board copper. And it may be that the drive circuit is less than ideal which could cause the MosFet to dissipate more heat even at 20 Amperes.
To drive the MosFet with enough current into the Gate Input Capacitance to assure very fast switching you need a MosFet driver chip. It is not difficult to add those into an existing circuit board with a little creativity.
Once that is done you'll need to "beef up" the circuit board copper in those areas where the higher current will flow so that it won't be destroyed.
To handle 100 Ampere pulses safely the wiring will have to be quite hefty.
Looks to me like it's all doable.
