Mosfet Module Wiring

Other Hardware Motors, Mechanics, Power and CNC

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a mosfet module to use for my rocket's parachute ejection charge. However, when I got it in the mail, there were no instructions included. I haven't been able to find any info on this thing at all and I am not very experienced when it comes to mosfets. Could somebody please take a look at this and see if they know how this module should be wired?

Thanks a bunch!

That board is a knock off of a Sparkfun module, SparkFun MOSFET Power Controller - PRT-11214 - SparkFun Electronics

SOIC8 packaged MOSFETs like that all have the same pinout:

source - pins 1,2,3
gate - pin 4
drain - pins 5,6,7,8

I thank both of you very much for your responses. They are greatly appreciated.
