I had the idea to make a power converter, and I would like some feedback. I can take constructive criticism.
The basic idea was to make something where a microcontroller could drive a power MOSFET, with some isolation from the gate capacitance in the form of a pilot BJT. There are also manual start and stop buttons, in addition to the microcontroller input.
The BJT is pre-biased to save board space. I've built and tested this, and it works. However, I feel someone better than me could pick it apart, and guide me in the right direction.
I have the Eagle files in a GitHub repository: https://github.com/gregkrsak/kriner-pc
Thank you.
