What is he driving the gate with? At any reasonable switching frequency he is probably going to need a MOSFET driver chip to get a couple of amps gate drive, which you definitely won't get from an MCU pin. -- Scanned by iCritical. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
