True...I guess I should've quantified those statements a bit.
The bulk of those MOSFETs are driving a load of LEDs at 76Hz, a few are driving motors at 4882 Hz in other projects (yes, I know, the whine from the motors rocks!!! but I don't have to listen to it!). I've never measured I(g)...probably should. Might be the exact reason why I've had 3 pins fail to 'open-drain wanna-be' in the past couple of years.
