Has anyone who has built their own ICD had problems finding the 1N5817
diode used in the Vpp circuit? I can't find a 1N5817 locally and I'm
just a little too impatient to wait for a Digikey shipment. :=3D)

I'm thinking of substituting a 1N5819 in place of the 1N5817. The max
Vf spec of the 1N5819 (600 mV @ 1A) is a little higher than the 1N5817
(450 mV @ 1A) and I'm not sure if I can get away with this
substitution. I don't know how critical this difference might be.

Any other substitutions anyone can recommend?


Thanks, Bob
