3 would work just fine at 600x3=1800V vs 800x2=1600. I will switch to the 1KV parts since I already have PWBs.
The forward bias efficiency impact will be minimal for two vs three diodes as the forard voltage at these low currents is so much smaller than the output voltage. It may even be a wash as the 600V parts are faster and energy is dissipated as the devices switch from on to off during those Trr nano seconds. A faster part is less energy. In either case, it's not worth the energy to calculate it! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
