Two Back-to-Back Connected MOSFETs (Q1/Q3-Q2/Q4 and M1/M3-M2/M4):

Each channel on the LM7472EVM is populated with one set of back-to-back connected N-channel MOSFETs (Q1 and Q2 in channel 1 and M1 and M2 in channel 2) capable to support 5-A automotive ECU applications. Placeholders for parallel FETs (Q3 and Q4 in channel 1 and M3 and M4 in channel 2) are provided for extending current to 10 A and can be used to validate other MOSFETs.
