Worth looking at microsemi - their UM6201, 6901 and 7101 are pretty similar devices, and maybe cheaper. 73 Peter SM/G3RZP _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@conte

I've actually used 1N4007s quite successfully - they have a long carrier life time, but do need a fair amount of current through them. The reverse capacity could be aproblem if there isn't a fair amo

I'd agree that the 53 ohm one sounds suspiciously low: I suppose it's possible it arced from turn to turn and fused that way. can you see anything wrong with it on a visual inspection? The usual reas

To a point. IF the diodes all come from the same diffusion batch, it's probable, although if the wafer is large, you can see generally see differences from one side of the wafer to the other. Don't l

Because if the reverse leakage differs between diodes, the reverse voltage distribution also differs. The one with the least leakage ends up with the highest voltage across it, which could exceed the

I don't follow that argument. In a bridge, the 'off' diodes are effectively in parallel, not series. Substitute bits of wire for the 'ON' diode and analyse for one half cycle. I may be considered a b

Rich's argument appears to me that because the current is the same in each diode, and each diode goes into avalanche, the voltage distribution on any one diode can't be such as to exceed the the reve

There is a limit to how thick you can deposit metal. The Unitrode process, which uses the end of the lead in direct contact has some advantages here. At least in diodes, you don't tend to get the ste

One point to bear in mind is that the secondary of the modulation transformer has a lot of DC in it, which means that you need more iron (and probably an air gap) to avoid the core being saturated by

I believe AM B/C xmtrs (if they're still being made with tubes!) tend to go for pulse width modulated type amplifiers for the modulation, and no transformers. Over here, the aithorities even intend t

Just don't forget the air gap so that the secondary doesn't produce enough field to saturate the core. That will also mean that for any given primary impedance, you'll effectively need more turns th
