Surface mount MMBFJ201 JFETs presoldered to TO-92 adapter boards. Use wire, clipped component leads, or pin headers to easily attach these adapters to PCBs using TO-92 footprints for J201s. These JFETs can be found in many effects pedals, synthesizers, and other projects. The J201 / MMBFJ201 is an N-Channel general purpose amplifier JFET. This device is designed primarily for low level audio and general purpose applications with high impedance signal sources. The pinout is marked on the PCB and is DSG when facing the component side.

Oversized M12 flat washers. These washers fit both metric (M12) and imperial (15/32) bushings for compatibility with the vast majority of foot switches and full-sized toggle switches. These oversized washers are a great way to add a distinctive look to projects.

The AS3080ED is Alfa’s version of the CA3080 IC in an SOIC package. The AS3080ED is a gain block which is the operational-transconductance-amplifier (OTA). The AS3080ED has differential input and a single-ended, push-pull, class A output. Amplifier bias input may be used either for gating or for linear gain control. High output impedance and transconductance (gM) is directly proportional to the amplifier bias current (IABC). Linearizing diodes are provided at the inputs to reduce distortion and allow higher input levels. The result is a 10-dB signal-to-noise improvement referenced to 0.5 percent THD.
The AS3080ED is notable for it’s high slew rate (50V/µs), which makes it especially useful for multiplexer and fast unity-gain voltage followers.

Included in the PA-9ECB Basic Kit, PA-9ECD Deluxe Kit, and also available separately, the Cable-Red/R allows the user to power effect units that have reverse polarity barrel connectors (tip positive/barrel negative). The Cable-Red/R features a tip positive, male barrel connector that is spring-loaded to prevent disconnection. The Cable-Red/R can be hooked to any plug on any of the Power-All daisy chains, or directly to the Power-All.

BC148C NPN transistor in a rare Mullard Lockfit package. The BC148C is the equivalent of a BC108C but in the Lockfit package rather than a TO-18. The BC148C was used in a variety of audio and radio equipment and works well for fuzz and other effects.

µA741 single op amp in an 8-pin DIP package. The µA741 device is a general-purpose operational amplifier featuring offset-voltage null capability. The high common-mode input voltage range and the absence of latch-up make the amplifier ideal for voltage-follower applications. The device is short-circuit protected and the internal frequency compensation ensures stability without external components. A low-value potentiometer may be connected between the offset null inputs to null out the offset voltage. Features

• Short-Circuit Protection
• Offset-Voltage Null Capability
• Large Common-Mode and Differential Voltage Ranges
• No Frequency Compensation Required
• No Latch-Up

CD4027B is a single monolithic chip integrated circuit containing two identical complementary-symmetry J-K flip flops. Each flip-flop has provisions for individual J, K, Set, Reset, and Clock input signals. Buffered Q and Q signals are provided as outputs. This input-output arrangement provides for compatible operation with the CD4013B dual D-type flip-flop. The CD4027B is useful in performing control, register, and toggle functions. Logic levels present at the J and K inputs along with internal self-steering control the state of each flip-flop; changes in the flip-flop state are synchronous with the positive-going transition of the clock pulse.
