Unusual functions of cheap parts
Henry Kiefer wrote:
Hi all - After my first thread going from "standard" cheap parts for up to vhf frequency to a discussion about the usefulness of Spice simulator...... I try it another time hopefully get attention of frustrated co-readers: For example the rechtifier diode 1N4007 can be used as a rf switching diode, for example as rx/tx-switch. This is because it is a pin structure diode. This type is cheap and you can get it almost everywhere. It shows good performance for the price. Surely for high-end you should do it with another type tuned to the application it is made for. But anyway it works in some circuits. Do you know of other interesting devices or circuits good for misuse? Best regards - Henry An LED as a shunt regulator. Also, as a varicap. Ed |
