SeeedGrove - MOSFET (CJQ4435)
Overview
The Grove - MOSFET is an expansion board designed to allow low-voltage microcontrollers to control higher voltage and current peripherals using a CJQ4435 P-channel MOSFET. This module acts as a power switch, enabling logic-level control for loads operating between 5V and 15V. It integrates seamlessly into the Grove ecosystem for rapid prototyping without soldering.
Why Choose This Part
The board features a standard Grove connector for plug-and-play operation with Base Shields, eliminating the risk of incorrect wiring. Its compact 20mm by 40mm footprint and support for up to 15V input make it a versatile tool for bridge-building between 3.3V/5V logic and higher voltage power rails.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Connect the module to a Grove-compatible base shield using a 4-pin universal cable. Apply the external load power to the screw terminals (5V to 15V) and use a standard digital output or PWM signal from your microcontroller to toggle the MOSFET state. Refer to the CJQ4435 datasheet for thermal considerations when switching continuous high-current loads.
