Just spent 2nd half day building a (6 ic + 3 tranny) circuit on solderless breadboard, ran out of space, two soic's are connected by having bits of ribbon cable soldered to them, plugged in the wires where they would fit... damn thing doesn't work. Doh! Simulates OK, so its probably something I did.
Now I will have to tear it down and build and test one small bit at a time. At least I've found a 5v wall wart now. Gnnggggg...
What I could do with is making the transistorey bits into sub-circuits I can plug in. PITA whatever way I look at it
Invented a way to make a so23 have leads - tiny square of copperclad with a T shaped cut in it. Solder the so23 to that, solder on wires. Sorted. (Because that is the only P-channel mosfet I have)
