-[* black] The left is a PNP transistor (TIP32C) and the right is a 15V linear voltage regulator (LM7815), but that is not the reason I took the picture. Look at the middle pins on the packages, they have a little tube around the legs, anyone know why that is? Is it to prevent a short if something metallic fell near the legs, or something else?
