The 11th AddOhms Video is live and the subject is What is a MOSFET, and how to use them. This turned out to be the longest video I’ve made so far. In fact, I probably should have broken off the power dissipation part, but felt it needed to be addressed. I think many non-engineers look at a MOSFET (or regulator) datasheet and see a huge power value or current rating, but not realize you need a heatsink to achieve them.
For the behind the scenes look this time, I grabbed my GoPro Hero 3+ and recorded myself doing the Voice Over track. You can watch a few minutes of it, though honestly, not sure why you would!, here.
Something new is a format change. I decided to start moving towards showing a little bit more of me. So I’m testing the waters with an introduction and exit. Any comments on how this works?
