What's the pinout on the NTE490 mosfet?

The diagram seems rather unspecfic.
From the first pic I can't tell if I'm looking at it with the flat side towards me or the rounded side towards me.

I would say the diagram has the flat side towards you.

NTE has garbage datasheets, fairchild ftw. I found this topic comparing the BS170 to the NTE490  :icon_mrgreen:

Hehehe This is answered in the FAQ - which BTW is on the top of the forum:

One of my first questions as well!

I wiped the re-stamping off a 490 to see what it really was... they just use a paint filler, so after cleaning I could faintly see the "170".  :icon_wink:
