RFP30N06LE MOSFET 30 A 60 V RFP30N06LE N-Channel Power MOSFET Transistor ESD Rated TO-220 (Pack of 10)

Works great for controlling components w/ an Arduino. Not sure why the one guy is saying you are going to "stress" this component at 5V to the gate, considering the absolute maximum Vgs in the Datasheet is 10V. After that you're going beyond the components rating. His usage of 1-2V to the gate is barely opening the gate because it's at Vgs(TH) as specified in the datasheet.

I needed a couple of these in a pinch and thanks to Amazon Prime I got them in a couple of days. I tested all of them before putting them in the parts bin and they all passed.

Nice! They very good for preventing components from being damaged on arduino due to overcurrent draw.

I purchased some of these to perform directional control on a DC motor. Initially, I was a little concerned because some of the reviews indicated that they received faulty components. Additionally, I noticed that changing the gate voltage had little effect on the Source-Drain voltage, and the transistors were heating up very quickly. However, I eventually uncovered that my switching method was incorrect - MOSFETs are activated by the presence of charge on the gate, meaning they must must not only receive a gate voltage to achieve conduction, but must also be grounded to achieve full shutoff. If you just apply a voltage from source to drain without initially grounding the transistor, it will almost certainly overheat because the gate stores a small charge, enough to drive the transistor into partial conduction in absence of an ON signal. After modifying my test circuit accordingly, all 10 components work as advertised. I also saw that someone mentioned that the components do not come in an anti-static bag, which struck me as odd too. If you reference the datasheet, you will find that this specific transistor has integrated ESD protection up to 2kV using the Human Body model for ESD protection, so they are quite safe in the provided packaging.

Seems to be good quality. They work. Get a lot for only a few bucks.

You can get the spec sheet off the internet. This works as expected. The product arrived safely and ahead of schedule. Nice transistors.

When providing 3.3v Vgs I get BARELY any current flowing. Also they did not come in an anti-static bag which is sketchy AF

works great for radio repair or upgrade
