IRFZ44 has an internal avalanche diode. So my one outside is useless.
The MOSFET body diode is not a soft recovery type. While you can live without an external diode putting one may save trouble. Switch Off ringing + Brush Noise + Reverse Recovery Time may kill your MOSFET.
You can use SG3525 PWM controller that solves your whole purpose.
