Device Orientation and Insertion

Insert the transistor last,

AFTER connecting the

cables and leads. Remove

the shorting wire after

insertion in the socket.

The MOS FET leads must be re-arranged into a straight line as shown.

IMPORTANT:

The MOS FET is highly sensitive to electrostatic damage. Touching the bare leads can definitely

destroy the device. The device comes with a special shorting wire attached. Bend the leads the way

you want, insert the device in the socket, and then remove the shorting wire. The wire has a tab. Just

grab the tab and pull straight out. The wire will spiral out as you pull.

Once the shorting wire is removed, you must use a wrist strap when handling the device.
