You want to use a MOSFET to drive LEDs at 20 A. Its specs are listed below: TMax = 250∘C RBJA = 30∘C/W RDS(on) = 5 mΩ Assume an ambient temperature of 25∘C 9. What power (in Watts) is dissipated in the transistor (PT) ? 10. What is the maximum power (in Watts) the transistor can safely dissipate without a heat sink (PD)? 11. The MOSFET would need a heat sink to safely operate. True False
