Question

transistor heat problem

Answer 1

I have an issue with driver transistor ckts. I am trying to build a simple ckt where the NMOS will act as a gate. I have a 12 Volt source and a 3 ohm load. The source and is connected to the load, the load to the drain, the source of the transistor is connected to ground. Everytime i build this ckt the transistor that I am using heats up and dies. I also need 4 amps of current to drive the load.


Answer 2

every transistor has its capacity, but due to continuous and other embedded parts it heats while the amount of current is spreading continuously. It's like how our mobile phone is heated
