Step recovery diodes are very similar in construction to varactor diodes so the later can be used in step recovery applications with qualification. I have also seen the 1N4148 used as a step recovery diode when driven by an avalanche pulser but I do not know if it was qualified. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
