I need to replace a diode on an old PCB, the existing one being a
1N100

What's a suitable modern equivalent to this please? It's part of a
video output circuit.


Thanks

It's germanium, so one of the key things is to find a germanium
diode to replace it.

NTE is an outfit that sells replacement components for electronics
repair. They cross-reference a 1N100 to their NTE109.

Look on their website for a distributor or retailler near you.
Frequently their product is also sold in radio/television repair shops
too, so your part may be just a short drive away. You might be able to
get it within the hour, rather than waiting for shipping.

Good luck
Chris

Thanks Chris - I forgot to mention that I'm in the UK. However, have
found a supllier of OA95 in the UK. :)
