MCU’s like your Arduino use logic level signals of 3.3 or 5 Volt at about 20 mA.
To effectively drive Power MOSFET’s you need about 12 Volt and enough current to drive them fast.
In this video I will show 3 circuits built with general purpose transistors to drive power MOSFETs from your Arduino,
I will explain how they work, the pro’s cons, simulate all circuits and also build and test one.
