Topics • Driving the MOSFETs from 5 Volts • The pin out of the H-bridge • Connecting the H-bridge and the PIC board Sophomore Clinic II
MOSFETs in Switching • Switching properties • Off • When they’re off, they’re off • Gate-source voltage must be below threshold voltage • On • When they’re on, the drain-source resistance is very, very low • The achieved on resistance is a function of the drive voltage • Drive must be much higher than the threshold voltage • 5 Volts drive provides sufficient drive Sophomore Clinic II
On V-I Characteristics N-Channel P-Channel Sophomore Clinic II
Conclusion • Typical characteristics from the IRC data sheets • N-channel is IRFZ24N • P-channel is IRF9Z24NPbF • Data sheet shows • N-channel on resistance of 1/8 Ohm • P-channel on resistance of 2/5 Ohm • Both limit current to about 2.5 A • Good to go for Sophomore Clinic Project motor drives • A good choice for magnet drive – switch directly from the PIC Sophomore Clinic II
Pin-Out of the H-Bridge Board • Power connector • +5 Volts, ground from the rails • Power to the motors comes from here • Connectors for the motors • Three redundant ground connections • Eight lines to the PIC board Sophomore Clinic II

The H-Bridge Drive • The MOSFETs are complementary – The P-channel is driven by the reverse polarity signal to the gate • +5 Volts is OFF • Ground is ON • We want to drive them form the PIC hardware, not the software • Solution • We use the PWM output of the PIC • We use the motor direction toggle from the PIC • We drive the H-bridge with hardware using these signals Sophomore Clinic II
