I need to control a 12V 100A DC motor and I was thinking of using this circuit, I saw many post and application notes that talk about parallelizing MOSFETs but I did not see any circuit using MOSFET drivers or in H-Bridge, my question is if this circuit is ok

BTW: The mosfet that I will use are IRF1404, Rds=0.004 ohm

Edited: sorry I avoid the circuit

    \$\begingroup\$ I have been playing with BTN7971B MOSFET H-bridge driveres. I also experimented with paralleling two L298N drivers and found no problems. Of course there are many other MOSFET H-bridge drivers. You might like to skim some of my answers below: (1) electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/559090/…, (2) electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/559986/…, (3) electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/556772/…, / to continue, ... \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ I'm sure that you appreciate your motor is 1.2kW - the size of a professional circular saw. And that's what it can do. Is there any motor /voltage feedback elsewhere? Running offa what? Battery? Fuse? Can IN1 and IN2 both be the same state as that catches many out here? \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ But IRF1404 can already do 200+A continuous, so there is no need to parallel two IRF1404 for bigger current. \$\endgroup\$
