Death always brings life.

Is the SJDP120R085 a good part for some Pass designs? Or is it better to go for the R100? Is it going to get some circuit time with you in your estimation? Thanks!

Yes, it is comparable in performance but operates at a different Vgs.

In an example of a single-ended Class A circuit biased at 1.5A and 18V Vds,
I get similar numbers with the Vgs at -4V for the 085 and 1.3V for the R100.

The choice between the two would largely be a matter of biasing convenience.

Thanks again for doing the lab rat tests for us, Mr. Pass...being an N part I think the +Vgs bias is more convenient.

Ha Ha. My partner and I were discussing that magic on Thursday. Can JFET amps become the new tubes? We couldn't decide if that would be received as the new cool trend or nerdville.

The cool new trend is to be in nerdville.

Not to mention ZM - God knows what he dreams about after sausages and
Serbian alcoholic beverage.

I have a potential interest in a very small quantity of R100 or similar, however my main concern at the moment is with the supply of Serbian alcoholic beverage. My supplier told me a few days ago that Slivovitz is currently unobtainable. I have only about an eighth of a bottle left in the freezer and I am just finishing up a batch of Slivovitz ice cream.

But meanwhile I sent an email to Semisouthfan.

Is this Serbian moonshine? I will trade SS fets for this racing fuel

 

[Zen Mod]

somewhat hard to smuggle in small quantities

only if you arrange GB , so we can go through official channels

 

[buzzforb]

Just send minimum qty needed and its a done deal. My first personal GB.

My experience with ZM's product is that you have to keep it in the freezer
or it will tend to boil away.

Merry Xmas

Wonderful. You don't even have to turn it up to enjoy it.

 

[generg]

I hope you do not mean Pumpkin(g).....hottest entrance sound in the Pass World, I enjoyed it very much!

Merry Christmas!

I predict that long before I run out of SITs there will be some new, perhaps more interesting devices to play with.

maybe this:

already started a thread here a couple days ago =) link

ah actually no you have a different one there to the semelab jfet I found. I dont even want to think about how much they want for this one

No hope:
SemiSouth Laboratories Late Model Silicon Carbide Semiconductor Manufacturing and Test Equipment to be Sold by Heritage Global Partners and The Branford Group via Major Global Webcast Auction April 4 - Yahoo! Finance

SemiSouth Laboratories, Inc. | Liquidation Auction - Equipment Auctions | HGP Industrial Auction

SemiSouth Laboratory equipment goes on auction block - Mississippi Business Journal

 

[Semisouthfan]

While it is true SemiSouth is gone, parts are still available (contact me for more info). And I monitor the industry where there is interest in pursuing similar technology.

There is always hope.

There has been some mention of the devices like C2M0080120D from Cree. Any coments towards similarities to the SS devices we like or audio uses in general?
I would aquire a few and try but available $$$ are tight right now...
