This time, Tony Grimes dropped in to experiment with his fiber-optic cloth from SensingTex as an illuminating surface, but the included 5mm LED was not dazzling enough. Time to hack in our 3W RGB Star Controller! The plan was to shift […]
Friday New Product: FETs
Solar botics
July 11, 2014
What we have today are not Fairly Expensive Tortillas or Fortunately Edible Theremins, but Field-Effect Transistors. If you know what it is, I will leave you to explore:
|
1RFZ44N N-Channel FET $2.50 The IRFZ44N is a very powerful useful N-Channel FET, with only 0.0175ohms resistance pushing 20 amperes at 5V! |
 |
FQP27P06 P-Channel FET $0.95 A robust P-Channel FET that is capable of interfacing with most 5V-logic microcontrollers. |
 |
NDP6020P P-Channel FET, --2.5V gate, -20V, 24A max $1.95 An N-channel FET with an extremely low gate voltage which can be controlled by most 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers. |
..and no, these are not even Forcibly Eccentric Tabbies.

I just noticed on their blog that they're talking about our Solar Pendulum kit and Christopher […]
