I am driving a motor at 24V 6A and want to control the speed of it using PWM (from a microcontroller) and the NTD5867NL-1G. The problem is preventing EMF from damaging the transistor. I'm aware a diode (I believe suppressor diodes to be more specific) are what I need to solve this problem.
However, I'm not sure which one I need. Diodes seem to have maximum, continuous, and/or average current ratings. I'm not sure which I need to focus on, but I've noticed the ones with the high continuous ratings seem to be obscenely expensive or more than 2 pins.
Does anyone have a recommendation as to what I can use?
