Everyone has their favorite parts that they just use without even hardly thinking about it. For me, one of my favorites is the IRL series MOSFETs. These are almost the perfect switch. I have a bag of IRL520's around. They cost about a buck in small quantities. They handle over 6A at 100 degrees C, break down at 100V, and turn on with way less than a half ohm with logic level drive. What's not to like?
