Sure, leave me for the FETs.


But FETs are fickle. First they'll ask you to wear an anti-ESD strap on your wrist. Then your ankle. Then they'll want you to sit on a mat. Then you'll be in a sweaty Class 100 plastic bag with special conductive lines in the fabric carting them around in a metal cart with a grounding chain while they're sipping Class 1 air. Before long, they won't even let you handle them without a ceramic vacuum wand. Not vinyl gloves, not nitrile. Ceramic or you're not getting any.


And then, when you least expect it, you're going to have just a little too much static charge on you and they'll abandon you to erratic switching behavior.
