Comments requested on MOSFET high-side driver
introduction
i find learn lot writing tutorials, because when write tutorial want explain why did something, rather else. helps clarify concepts in mind (my mind, is).
i working on page interfacing high-side driver (ie. source current rather sink it) using p-channel mosfet.
there great youtube videos subject, find @ times want "glance @ circuit" rather sit there watching video 10 minutes, try find part explain relationship between current, rdson , heat.
schematic
below proposed schematic:
for testing, mosfet fqp47p06 , transistor 2n3904.
you welcome make suggestions values of components (eg. r1 , r2).
also d1, using 1n4148 300 ma motor. adequate? schottky better, or overkill? believe 1n4148 fast (4ns) recovery, 200 ma, 100v diode.
i have tested 2 ohm load, driving whole thing power supply limited 1 amp. input pin 1 khz square wave (at 5v).
overall results are:
the blue trace gate of q2 , yellow trace drain of q2.
as expected, fet turns on when gate becomes more negative, , turns off when gate becomes less negative. in particular:
the delta there around 2v agrees datasheet quotes vgs(th) -2v mininum.
turn-off time
once concern have lengthy turn-off time:
that around 58 µs seems lot. accounts for, think, fet getting hot (around 30 °c) because running unsaturated quite while.
would lower value r2 here? suggested values? if r2 lower, r1 might need lower provide adequate current sink gate 0v when required. right?
turn-on time
turn-on time seems faster (around 1 µs) seems ok me:
power consumption , heat
i calculate power through load being i2r 1 , rds(on) 0.021, thus:
the "thermal resistance junction ambient" (rØja) 62.5 °c/w, expect rise of:
does sound right? measuring more 10 degrees rise.
any other comments or suggestions?

code: [select]
power = 1 * 1 * 0.021 = 0.021 watts

0.021 * 62.5 = 1.3125 °c (over ambient)

yes, lower r2. 10k pretty high resistance discharge gate charge.
unless on tight current budget arduino pins, think i'd start 1k resistor r1, , 470 ohms r2.
using 200ma rated diode on 300ma motor seems unwise. i'd use @ least 1a diode. has been discussed, 1n400x diode fast enough turn-on time, turn-off time slow.
