There are a lot of circuits (a lot) that use J201/2N5457 JFETs. Sadly, these components in the TO-92 package are out of production, and many of those that can be found online are either barely within spec or completely out of spec. So I thought it would be good to have a conversion board to use SMD transistors (that are current production and much more consistent) in through-hole layouts. Just solder some header pins to the holes of this board and you’re good to go. I’ve also done a conversion board for BJTs, as some common through hole transistors are already being pulled from production.
If you don’t feel like etching, you can pick these up in the store.
