Switchng a 12V lamp with an International Rectifiers IRLD024 Mosfet Switch by BARRAGAN http://barraganstudio.com
A Mosfet is s special kind of transistor switch used to handle higher loads than the Wiring board can handle by itself. Logic-level MOSFETs can be connected directly to a digital output pin. In this example the Wiring board is blinking a 12V lamp by using an IRLD024 Mosfet connected to the digital Pin 0 Don't forget to tie together the Wiring GND and the Lamp 12V power supply GND.

int mosfetPin = 0; // Mosfet Gate pin connected to the Wiring I/O board pin 0
void setup()
{
pinMode(mosfetPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(mosfetPin, HIGH); // sets the Lamp on
delay(1000); // waits for a second
digitalWrite(mosfetPin, LOW); // sets the Lamp off
delay(1000); // waits for a second
}
