Just replaced a MOSFET on a treadmill motor controller and it seems to be back working.. But I just want to make sure it doesnt blow again.. Is there any good practices for preventing a recurrence of the MOSFET blowing..
There is a huge heatsink on it, an isolation pad between the heatsink and the MOSFET, and it is screwed to the heatsink with an M4 nut, washer and bolt. Aside from swopping the MOSFET for a more powerful chip, is there anything else I could do to help it from re-blowing.
