Actually I made a pretty bonehead mistake there. I tried dropping the mosfets like you suggested with no luck, then I reaslized I was testing with a 2N7000 (TO-92) and when I updated the schematic I used a SMD 2N7002 because the board will use the SMDs. I didn't realize that the source and gate pins swapped |O. Hopefully this makes a little more sense. I'm using the 2N7000 because it's what I have on hand to test. I have a box of assorted transistors coming in today so if there is a better alternative I'm all ears but so far this is what I've gotten to work. Updated schematic. |

However, when the mosfet is off, there is nothing determining the potential on PWM pin. It needs a resistor pullup to 5V. |
