Title: Does n-channel mosfet breakout board exist?
Post by: kurt-olsson on June 21, 2016, 11:59:09 PM
As the headline says. Does any of you know if there are any breakout boards for this? I want to control my backlight with pwm and looking for a board to get a clean setup.

I have used these for dimming:

Based here in AU, but there should be something like this over there too

Be aware that won't work on real panels.  If aftermarket or LED should be ok.  By the way if you want a really cheap easy way to use a Teensy pwm as a dimmer, get an RC car motor controller.  I use $4.95 20A controller on my LED MIP flood lighting.  Works like a champ.

I use 5V 0,06A bulbs (40 of them in my mcp hehe)

I have a motor controller, never think of using that as dimmer, but its the same pwm stuff there aswell! They are also cheap in sweden.

Thanks Rob!
