So we have a string of diodes with a few microamps flowing in the reverse direction. If one of the diodes is rated for 200v and and there is 300v across it, will it fail? I guess I haven't seen the explanation for the failure mechanism in silicon diodes. If the reverse current really is limited will a failure inevitably happen? 73/k5gw _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
