Content for IRF740

IRF740

The IRF740 is an N-Channel Power MOSFET which can switch loads upto 400V. The Mosfet could switch loads that consume upto 10A, it can turned on by provide a gate threshold voltage of 10V across the Gate and Source pin. Since the mosfet is for switching high current high voltage loads it has a relatively high gate voltage, hence cannot be used directly with a I/O pin of a CPU. If you prefer a mosfet with low gate voltage then try IRF540N or 2N7002 etc.

HV Nixie DC-DC Switching Power Supply using MAX1771

“Nixie tubes need about ~180Vdc to light up and thus on most devices, a DC-DC converter is needed. Here we designed a simple DC-DC switching regulator capable of powering most of Nixie tubes. The board accepts 12Vdc input …
