-The MOSFET Shield Kit connects a 60V 30A N-Channel MOSFET to the Digispark development board. This allows the Digispark to turn DC loads on and off and use PWM with larger loads. The MOSFET is rated for 30A, but should be used at a far lower amperage without additional cooling.

 This is an unassembled kit and requires basic soldering. This is designed for use with the Digispark development board, which is not included.

 **Note:** If you are using stackable headers, use them here instead of the standard male headers.
+=====Hook-up:=====
+The MOSFET shield connects to a load a bit differently than a relay - here is a hook-up diagram:

+And here is a great tutorial with all the how and whys (the diode and resistor in this tutorial are already part of the shield) - http://bildr.org/2012/03/rfp30n06le-arduino/
