[@grinn585]

just curious, why do we need an arduino for this? can't you just use mosfet + pot and it will function the same?

[@Circuitdigest]

If you use the mosfet with just a pot without the PWM, you control only within the ohmic region.Even there you would be wasting energy since the mosfet will act like a resistor and will generate a lot of heat.

10qs sir!I want to do this project how much money I have to invest?

[@Circuitdigest]

Hi, Components required are listed on the project page you may use that to check the total cost.

[@moganthkumar5831]

What are those resistors for ? What is its use ?

[@Circuitdigest]

Pull down resistor is there to make sure that the MOSFET is fully turned off and the gate resistor is used to control over-current in gate drivers and to reduce overshoot between the drain and source during switching (EMI noise-reduction). The switching time (rise and fall time) of MOSFET varies depending on the resistor of the connected gate.

@@Circuitdigest Why not explain it in video and make it simpler to understand?

[@joshuvajohnvarghese2372]

1k for gate is really high. Gate resistor should be around 20 to 50 ohms

[@Circuitdigest]

With minimum Vtgh and rise time of 10nS, Ig = (1470pF * (5V - 2V)) / (10ns) = 0.42mA. With 1K resistor the current limit will be 5mA at 5V. So the 1K resistor is more than enough and will work just fine.

Doesn't mosfet already have inbuilt diode

[@Circuitdigest]

The flyback diode is connected across the motor not across the mosfet.

Can upload automatic motor speed decrease

That what shows at the beginning of the video
