| Jul 19, 2017 at 0:45 | comment | added | D.A.S. | I'm pretty sure now it is . Understand what \$V_{GS(th)}\$ Gate Threshold Voltage means and why I said gate voltage must be 3x this value from RdsON curve. The old IRF series uses 2~4 threshold to switch rated threshold of 250uA. | |
| Jul 19, 2017 at 0:37 | comment | added | Username | I have tried it with a Arduino Nano and I can successfully change the colour with that, so I don't think its a problem with the transistors | |
| Jul 19, 2017 at 0:36 | comment | added | Username | The transistors I am using though are actually these mosfets though and provide more than 1v. IRF540N N-Channel MOSFET | |
| Jul 19, 2017 at 0:31 | comment | added | D.A.S. | But is it a 1V FET? with output from Drain RGB and common 12V. | |
| Jul 19, 2017 at 0:31 | comment | added | Username | I am already using an N-Channel MOSFET. I should update the Fritzing diagram now. | |
