Tools Required |
|
We'll
start with the N Mosfet and the 30k resistor |
|
Carefully bend the source pin into a U shape |
|
Lay the N mosfet on to of the P one and bend the ends of the N mosfet's gate and drain pins so they can touch the P mosfets legs without strain |
|
Cover the gate and drain pins on the N mosfet
with heatshrink |
|
Solder 1 length of black wire to
the source pin |
|
Here's the completed N mosfet
from another angle |
|
Now we'll prepare the P mosfet |
|
Remove a small section on insulation from the middle of
the 6" length of red wire |
|
Heatshrink
the joint |
|
Now place the N mosfet on top of
the P one and solder both sets of gate and drain pins together |
|
Solder the other 3" length of
black wire to the drain pins |
|
Solder the 100 Ohm resistor to the signal/trigger wire |
|
Heatshrink
the joint |
|
Here's the almost finished unit, now's the time to test it |
|
Heatshrink the whole unit. |
