What are you talking about here, the threshold voltage?When I look at the data sheets for the P-Channel MOSFET's the Vgs is rated from -2V min to about -4, or -4.5 V max. So shouldn't I be holding the gate voltage to about 4 volts of the source?
You need to get Vgs below the threshold voltage (closer to 0v) in order to turn it off.
You need to get Vgs to the value where Id is specified in order to turn it fully on.
