FET -> MOSFET

There must be a limited number of ways in which MOSFETs fail with this condition. The particulars of my circuit should not be relevant. | |

| Mar 27, 2013 at 15:08 | comment | added | Dave Tweed | Bad karma? Seriously, you have enough experience here to know that this a bad question. How is the MOSFET being used in the circuit? Where's the schematic diagram? | |
