"Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe." Frank Zappa

I need a source in the US that stocks fast recovery rectifiers like these:


Mouser, Allied, and Digikey are special order.

Ebay is blocked at work but will look at home

That diode contains lead - you may have a hard time finding it

I have started building diode strings out of these and i have not killed ANY yet. I give them a big A+

1N914 at 4ns isn't fast enough

using a trigger transformer with good results (and the 1N914 after the differentiator)

Grumpy, would you mind telling us what you're using these
ultrafast diodes for?
For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.

They were to isolate the trigger electronics of an avalanche pulser.

I'm using a coaxial transformer instead and currently waiting on some RG-213/U (solid PE) so I can use higher voltages.
