Fading with the MOSFET Power Switch and Buck Regulator
July 1, 2024
In this tutorial, we will slowly turn on the load and then slowly turn it off using the N-channel MOSFET.
Does your microcontroller need to control a high-voltage item, like a 12V LED strip, while also needing to be powered? Do you want to avoid having multiple power adapters and microcontrollers for your project? The MOSFET Power Switch and Buck Regulator (Low-Side) is perfect for projects like this! Today, we're gonna show you how to use it to fade an LED.
