FMMT597 transistor not working
<< < (2/2)

Dough, I wanted him to figure out the correct places for the collector and emitter connections.

Ooops....  |O

Chris Hasler:
Didn't realise that the schematic would be wrong as its a rework of a through hole board to smd.

So the next question is how did it work on the last 2 board revisions?

I will have to work out if the boards are salvageable.
Zero999:
One possibility is the footprints for the transistors, on the previous board revisions, had their collector and emitter connections reversed, so it worked.

Or if the last boards were through hole the transistors might just have been fitted bass ackwards and the schematic has never been correct...
