I am teaching myself about MOSFET. We called these FET when I was in college.
It looks like I have to design my own Induction heater circuit if I want one that really works.
I have 3 questions.
If I use 120 VAC as my supply voltage X 1.414 = 169 VDC.
How can I limit the current to 5.91 amps to make a 1000 watt induction heater?
How do I build an RF osc to switch the transistor on/off at 200KHz I don't think a 555 timer will operate above 20K?
What about the 45 uh coil? If 6 turns is 1.5 uh then 4 turns is 1 uh and 180 turns is 45 uh.
