Well, keep going - some assembly required - that means you...as in ...have to do it...

Just remember the MRF497 is a BEC not a BCE pinout. Meaming if you try to wire this up without making the proper changes, BOOM.

That means the Emitter is to the TAB and Center leg, not like the older parts they replace which a 2312 uses BCE and the 1969 is also BCE - get a datasheet for these parts as you can - it helps to review them when you want to go big, you can wire it up right and not go boom...

PDF's attached...look for them at the bottom of this post before the next post...The 2312 and 1969 are also included - and you'll see by the detail drawing they use COLLECTOR to TAB - while the MRF-497 is EMITTER to TAB - meaning it is not a drop-in working part.

Verify the parts you get are genuine.
