Title: Stage Fright 2024 2n5457 Orientation?
Post by: Micpoc on August 09, 2024, 04:50:58 PM
Hi, I am working on the new Stage Light and am a little confused about the orientation of Q2, the 2n5457. The build doc shows this:

Not sure what's going on with the "G" labeling on this... seems out of place?

Exactly as shown. The G indicates the location of the gate pin when using a SMD.

Oh, of course; it's obvious now. Thanks!
