I have the 2N5566. If you can get a group together and have someone in
the US to accept shipment, I will send some there.

I have a friend living and working in the US with their family. They will help me transport them to my country. I can't send an private messenger to you.
It was very difficult to find the original 2N556x for testing and evaluation.
Do I get a couple of 2N5566 from you?
Please help and let me know any suggestions for the next steps.
Thank you very much.
 
I've tried DIP-8 footprint on PCB. The advantages are:
1. Compatible with NPD556X
2. Compatible with 2N556X metal-can if you solder them on an adapter

Hi Mr Chien,

great idea from erikovsky. A DIP-6 footprint allows also to use the LSK389/489/589 from Linear Systems in SOIC 8 , TO-71/6 or in SOT-23/6 cases with a small adapter borard. As i check in the layout, there is sufficient space in that area und would make the designs very flexible .

Hi erikovsky,

DIP-6 or DIP-8 doesn't care, i choose DIP-6, because the actual available prodducts, like SST404 from Calogic the LSK 4(5,6)89 are available inthe shown cases. The DIP- (NPD556x) is still in production, or has reached EOL? As a DIYer i am interested in buying devices from trustworthy sources. All these device i mentioned before are still in production. And for me this way was sufficient enough.

Are you planning to change your designs with LAT-Mosfets for the TO-247 cases from EXICON (the last remaining in active production)?

To be a little more specific. Siemens is a unit and 1 S (Siemens) = 1/Ohm.
Taking Ohms law Volt=Aampere x Ohm makes Siemens = Ampere/Volt.

So in a FET with 1 S transductance a 1 Volt change in Gate/source voltage results in 1 Ampere change in drain-source current.
 
Of course perfect matched 2SK170 will improve the THD, because you used 2 identical JFETs for your simulation. In real life they are alltimes different. Maybe you' ll find 2 very similar ones, when you have tested 100 pcs. The main problem here is to find 100 genuine parts. Most of the offered one's on the internet are fakes, For a vry good matched pair (1%) , from $30 upwards you can count.

PS: at Trensetter.com you can order in different case SOIC8 or TO-71/6
