Great. BobZ! I am using the IRLU2905 simply because it’s a fantastic transistor. I found it by searching around some years ago (when I retired), with no thoughts about the case whatsoever. I have never needed the current, but the 27 mOhm on I do fancy. An example is fig.2 at [1]. I have only been soldering my own one-of-a-kind boards. Now I wanted to make a nice PCB drawing, for two boards, and am going from iCircuit to KiCad.
I so much would wish for an I-PAK footprint that I could plug into my component! I guess, if it were there, it might be used by someone else as well…? If not, I might be stubborn enough to try - with some help - thanks!
Which other HEXFET with built-in zener and low ON resistance might you suggest? I also use TN0604, it’s in a TO-92. I used the generic FET for it, but found none with the correct pin numbers, so I modified it.
