Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, a type of field-effect transistor (FET). MOSFETs have an insulated gate, the voltage of which determines the conductivity of the device. This can be used for amplifying or switching electronic signals. (From: Wikipedia)

Can PCB dissipate heat from MOSFET so that a heatsink is not needed
Which revision of the datasheet are you using? I see 1.0 W listed for 25 degree ambient.
Anyhow, the PCB material itself if very bad at dissipating heat, you need copper planes to do anything.
The DMP …

What's the purpose of the MOSFET on the output of the flyback buck converter in this circuit?
Going for a MOSFET instead, the BSC070N10N has 7 mΩ rated resistance. Running somewhat hot, it will however increase to 9.5 mΩ. At 6 A, this translates to about 340 mW of dissipation. … It is however more expensive than the diode and needs additional circuitry from the extra secondary winding and parts between that and the MOSFET gate. …

Choosing a power transistor with low dissipation
+1 on what Andy said.
Not what you asked, but what you need is a bog standard low side N-FET PWM driver.

Why is my inverter circuit outputting this waveform?
Your high side MOSFETs are N-channel, so you need gate voltages above 12 V to turn them on. Presently, your opamp which drives them are driven from the same 12 V rail so they can't turn on.
Either you …

What limits the number of MOSFETs/IGBTs in series or in parallel?
Your simple small MOSFET SMPS on your bench will usually work fine with parallelled MOSFETs as long as you have individual gate resistors. …

Why does a MOSFET cause a PAM8403 amplifier board to rapidly reset, and how can I fix it?
If you do need to having to switch off an IC, do it on the high side with a P-channel MOSFET and pay attention to any exposed inputs which may still receive voltage higher than ground which may need attention …

Why is IRFZ44N MOSFET with ESP 8266 always closed?
You need either a MOSFET driver (or some level sifter) or a MOSFET with lower Vgs(th). Your gate voltage from your ESP needs to be significantly higher than the rated Vgs(th) of the MOSFET. …

Half bridge motor driver; best motor placement?
Your PWM source may be too weak to drive a 24 A capable MOSFET, so you may need a buffer in between.
C1 is your local decoupling, unless you really know what you are doing. …

MOSFET as a switch to control 12 solenoid valves using arduino
Your MOSFET needs to have:
Low enough Vgs, gate threshold voltage so that your 3.3 V from the arduino will switch it. …

Relay Vs MOSFET or IGBT
20 A is probably too low to justify the forward voltage drop of an IGBT versus spending the same money on MOSFETs.
Relay is the cheapest option but reliability will suffer since they can stick and w …

Rule of thumb to select MOSFET transistors based on conmutation frequncy
That's difficult to answer in general since it comes down to how it's used, mainly soft versus hard switching but for a simplified hard switching topology, you want to limit the switching losses to so …

MOSFET connection within oscillating circuit
Move your V4 source from ground to source of top left transistor. If LTspice complains about it floating/takes forever to simulate, add a 1 Mohm resistor to ground.
No gate-source voltage.
No.

DC motor causing project to work unexpectedly
Looks like your circuit is missing a decoupling capacitor. If you have a motor in the circuit, you will probably trigger undervoltage lockout/brownout protection followed by restart.
