Detailed Description
The IRFZ44N MOSFET is a popular choice for controlling high-current loads such as DC motors, relays, solenoids, and LED strips. As a voltage-controlled device, it requires very little gate current, making it easy to interface with control circuits and MOSFET drivers.
Although commonly used with microcontrollers, optimal performance is achieved with a gate voltage of 10V or higher. Its robust design and low Rds(on) make it ideal for applications requiring efficient power switching and reduced heat generation.
