IRL620 is a popular N-channel MOSFET type. It is considered one of the most energy-efficient MOSFETs and is used for a wide range of applications. This article will explain the IRL620 application field and working principle.

Application of IRL620

The IRL620 MOSFET is used in high current DC-DC converters, pulse-width modulation (PWM) speed controllers, inverters, and switch-mode power supplies (SMPS). It has been designed to handle tens of amps and be able to remain safe and reliable even at high power levels. This makes the IRL620 suitable for many power applications.

The IRL620 can be used in switching applications such as voltage regulators, motor controllers, relays, and light-dimming. It is also used in low-noise amplifiers, mixers, and antennas. In addition, this MOSFET is used in audio-video (AV) systems with multiple outputs, such as computer sound cards or video cards.

Working Principle of IRL620

To understand the working principle of the IRL620, we need to understand MOSFETs in general. MOSFETs are semiconductor devices that control the current in an electrical circuit using the gate voltage. The gate voltage is the voltage that is applied to the gate terminal of the MOSFET.

When a positive voltage is applied to the gate terminal of the IRL620, holes in the semiconductor material are attracted to the gate terminal. These holes make the channel under the gate terminal conductive, allowing the current to flow. When a negative voltage is applied to the gate, the channel is shut off and the current stops flowing. This is the working principle of the IRL620.

In addition to controlling the flow of current in the electrical circuit, the IRL620 also has a built-in protection feature that prevents the circuit from overheating. If the current becomes too high or the drain-source voltage gets too low, the IRL620 will shut off the channel and reduce the current to a safe level.

Conclusion

The IRL620 is a popular N-channel MOSFET that is used in a variety of power applications. It is capable of handling tens of amps and is designed to remain safe and reliable even at high power levels. The IRL620 works by controlling the flow of current in the electrical circuit with the gate voltage, and it is also equipped with a protection feature that prevents the circuit from overheating.
