Newer designs seem to use a fast-recovery diode (e.g. FRED or HEXFRED or HiperFRED) for MOSFET flyback protection. 1N4007s aren't particularly fast, and reverse-conduction losses can be significant if the switching frequency is high (in e.g. an SMPS). That's probably not all that much of an issue in a solenoid driver, though. -- Dave Platt <dplatt(a)radagast.org> AE6EO Friends of Jade Warrior home page: http://www.radagast.org/jade-warrior I do _not_ wish to receive unsolicited commercial email, and I will boycott any company which has the gall to send me such ads!

That's not what either a 1N4147 or 1N4447 looks like. Graham
