Possible to use BDX53A FET's on V3 board to drive injectors?

Post by kimdrummel »

Hi!

I have run into a problem when building a V3 board. It seems that my supplier has not included any Field Effect Transistors to drive the injectors.

Though i have an old motronic ecu lying around and it has two ST BDX53A in it. Is it possible to use these to drive the injectors or are they not compatible with the Megasquirt?
Here are the datasheet for the BDX53 series: http://www.datasheetcatalog.org/datashe ... Xturyr.pdf

I want to assemble my board as soon as possible and would rather avoid messing about demanding new ones from my supplier.
