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


Mouser, Allied, and Digikey are special order.

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?

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.
