Neither.One question, should I look for 5V in Vgs or Vgs threshold?
You look for that Vgs where they specify the on-resistance (Rds) in the data sheet.

Ok, I see, if Rds is very low at an Vgs = 5V, then the Transistor is logic level, so what Vgs and Vgs(th) stands for?Neither.
You look for that Vgs where they specify the on-resistance (Rds) in the data sheet.
You look where they show the Rds(on) value in the data sheet (example below).I see, if Rds is very low at an Vgs = 5V,
Vgs is the MOSFET gate to source voltage.what Vgs and Vgs(th) stands for?
Look at Vgs threshold voltage in the datasheet. It is when the DS current is almost nothing at 0.25mA. Don't you want the Mosfet to conduct A LOT MORE current? The threshold voltage is when a Mosfet is almost turned off.One question, should I look for 5V in Vgs or Vgs threshold?
I see thanksYou look were they show the Rds(on) value in the data sheet (example below).
Vgs is the MOSFET gate to source voltage.
Vgs(th) is the Vgs threshold voltage (voltage at which the MOSFET just starts to conduct.
They use an Id value of 250μA conduction current in the example below.
Note that this is much less than the Id they use for specifying the on-resistance.

Hey! Just came here to tell you that my final h-bridge will be like this one (but I'll use IRF9530 and IRLZ44N)! Maybe when I get my circuit phisically done I'll show you some pictures, thanks!Below is a simple way to drive an H-bridge from a 5V signal (assuming the bottom N-MOSFETs are logic-level type) with a 12V supply.
