Guys and Gals, I'm revamping an old project and need some suggestions on a suitable MOSFET
I'm only switching 12v up to 2A directly from a PCA9685PW chip, so looking for a 5v logic level trigger. Whilst there are lots to chose from, and the prototype originally had overkill 45A items in a TO220 package I really need to reduce the overall size of the board. Now having 16 FETS on the board somewhat dictates the overall size, so I'm looking for suggestions for a small footprint SMD that can switch 2A @ 12v without needing heatsinks stick to them. If I have to go to a TO92 package then that's fine, but a TO263 SMD package will be a tad too large.
I've been searching all morning and seem to be going round in circles.. so any suggestions would be welcome
Thanks
