#123365 - Could work!
Responding to: Richard Erlacher's previous message
Germanium diodes are fast and show low junction capacitance. Some show significant reverse recovery times, though.

Germanium diodes demonstrate fantastic properties. Unfortunately, due to the small band gap the diode quickly mutates to a small resistance at higher ambient temperatures, entirely losing its rectifying properties...

      Fora is certainly correct      Phillip M Gallo      08/14/06 15:44      
         no, it's not ...        Andy Peters      08/15/06 01:02      
            great post!      Phillip M Gallo      08/15/06 15:02      
   I think the biggest problem is with the AT      Richard Erlacher      08/13/06 10:22      
      maybe      Jan Waclawek      08/13/06 13:28      
         It's not necessarily the product ... it's the docs      Richard Erlacher      08/13/06 16:26      
            OK let them be so      Jan Waclawek      08/14/06 07:36      
               It's true, they shouldn't be used by anyone.      Richard Erlacher      08/14/06 08:27      
                  What would you suggest to use?      Kai Klaas      08/14/06 10:58      
                     Anything else at all would be fine ... even a PIC      Richard Erlacher      08/14/06 15:58      
                        Whaaaat???      Jan Waclawek      08/14/06 16:05      
                           ANYTHING but Atmel products!      Richard Erlacher      08/14/06 23:23      
                              Come on, Richard...      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 08:39      
                                 well, I, for one, agree with Richard      Erik Malund      08/15/06 08:44      
                                    Bullshit! Stating such is entirely ridiculous!      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 10:43      
                                       how can a FACT be \\\'ridiculous\\\"?      Erik Malund      08/15/06 10:49      
                                          It's ridiculous, because you deduce...      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 11:07      
                                             single event?      Erik Malund      08/15/06 11:19      
                                                Yes, and hundreds of events with Philips,      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 11:42      
                                                   a VERY high up 'idiot'      Erik Malund      08/16/06 07:01      
                                                Well, mine was a long series of events      Richard Erlacher      08/15/06 16:49      
                                                   there may be hope, sorry Kai      Erik Malund      08/17/06 12:05      
                                                      It will be a WARM December day in Moscow      Richard Erlacher      08/17/06 17:08      
                                                         maybe someone found out      Erik Malund      08/18/06 06:28      
                                                            The penalty isn't severe enough      Richard Erlacher      08/18/06 12:01      
                                                               blame the rest of the bunch      Erik Malund      08/18/06 12:52      
                                                                  Well, as I said, it's like U.S.-made cars      Richard Erlacher      08/18/06 16:41      
                                 If they'll do it to US, they'll do it to YOU!      Richard Erlacher      08/15/06 10:44      
                                    Do you really think that others are better??      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 11:03      
                                       all comapanies have things to blame them for      Erik Malund      08/15/06 11:18      
                                          Indeed!      Kai Klaas      08/15/06 11:36      
                                             a maxim about maxim      Andy Peters      08/15/06 12:17      
                                             Once upon a time ... there were second sources ...      Richard Erlacher      08/15/06 16:56      
                                       I don't love Philips, either      Richard Erlacher      08/15/06 16:51      
                                          I don't 'love' any company, but I 'love' to work w      Erik Malund      08/16/06 07:19      
                                             Once upon a time there were FAE's who knew things.      Richard Erlacher      08/16/06 09:43      
                                                once upon a time ...      Erik Malund      08/16/06 10:54      
                                                   Yes, it\'s like the grocery store      Richard Erlacher      08/16/06 14:23      
      The biggest problem is      Kai Klaas      08/14/06 07:44      
         do it - under my name      Jan Waclawek      08/14/06 08:33      
            All right, here is it...      Kai Klaas      08/18/06 21:49      
               Kai .. we're not getting a bit sensitive here ?      Phillip M Gallo      08/19/06 00:41      
                  noooooo................ hmm, maybe a bit...      Kai Klaas      08/19/06 23:07      
                     Why does this come up so frequently?      Richard Erlacher      08/19/06 23:19      
                        Because there is so much trash in the www!      Kai Klaas      08/21/06 10:21      
                           Maybe we can provide a local "fix" for that      Richard Erlacher      08/21/06 10:38      
                              Great idea, but...      Kai Klaas      08/21/06 22:04      
                                 the other side of the coin      Erik Malund      08/22/06 06:10      
                                    A fool who trusts on phantasy programmers      Kai Klaas      08/22/06 07:46      
                                       Kai the issue is        Erik Malund      08/22/06 08:02      
                                          Exactly!      Kai Klaas      08/22/06 09:14      
                                          Little Joe      Jon Ledbetter      08/22/06 09:26      
                                             did you not know      Erik Malund      08/22/06 09:44      
                                             especially since he\'s been deceased for some time      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 09:58      
                                       Lots of those "fantasy" programmers are for sale      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 09:57      
                                          What a trash!      Kai Klaas      08/22/06 22:23      
                                             Oddly enough, similar circuits work for JTAG      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 22:31      
                                                Driving cables is nasty!!      Kai Klaas      08/22/06 22:53      
                                                   framkly, I wish eval-board makers would heed this      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 23:16      
                                                      Have you tested series termination?      Kai Klaas      08/23/06 10:16      
                                                         would be great, but      Erik Malund      08/23/06 10:36      
                                                         Kai, I think that would be a WONDERFUL addition!      Richard Erlacher      08/23/06 12:52      
                                    Well, what I am thinking ...      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 10:11      
                                       Yeah, but what's that to do with ISP?      Jon Ledbetter      08/22/06 10:20      
                                       grits, yes, oatmeal, no      Erik Malund      08/22/06 10:21      
                                          Some of 'em will look, read, and do SOME work      Richard Erlacher      08/22/06 17:57      
                                             and the winner is      Erik Malund      08/23/06 05:56

                        Will not do the trick, unfortunately      Kai Klaas      08/29/06 09:14      
                           decoupling the LPT lines?      Jan Waclawek      08/29/06 09:41

                                 and with a Schottky?      Jan Waclawek      08/29/06 09:53      
                                    No, I wouldn't recommend this      Kai Klaas      08/29/06 21:04

                                       Could work!      Kai Klaas      08/29/06 22:34      
               thanks, Kai!      Jan Waclawek      08/25/06 16:58      
                  Schottky diodes      Kai Klaas      08/26/06 21:29      
                     to Schottky or not to Schottky :-)      Jan Waclawek      08/27/06 00:46      
                        Yes, but we must assume a minimum standard...      Kai Klaas      08/27/06 08:32      
                           shopping      Jan Waclawek      08/27/06 14:57      
                              My point is..      Kai Klaas      08/27/06 20:06      
                        You can use an array      Richard Erlacher      08/27/06 12:25      
                           Your search - 74S1023 - did not match any document      Jan Waclawek      08/27/06 15:03

   the issues      Erik Malund      08/15/06 07:50      
   a most telling thread      Erik Malund      08/15/06 09:11      
      The root problem is that the first thing one needs      Richard Erlacher      08/15/06 17:02      
   "dedicated programmer"      Jan Waclawek      08/31/06 02:50      
      what's difficult to understand ...      Richard Erlacher      08/31/06 08:03      
         Ok, how do you propose they program and erase the      Erik Malund      08/31/06 08:27      
            I would not be quite so sure about that      Jan Waclawek      08/31/06 08:43      
            Keep in mind that this is for newbies ...      Richard Erlacher      08/31/06 12:29      
               but they still have to build it      Erik Malund      08/31/06 13:45      
      Only because it looks simple does not mean...      Kai Klaas      08/31/06 14:33      
         he's desperate      Erik Malund      08/31/06 15:19      
         there are lots of circuits published like this!      Richard Erlacher      08/31/06 16:41      
            I used to have memory mapped I/O in virtual      Erik Malund      09/01/06 06:23      
               I wouldn't say that ...      Richard Erlacher      09/01/06 09:00      
                  that threy learn to drive with a stick shift      Erik Malund      09/01/06 09:40      
                     Once again, you are exaggerating ...      Richard Erlacher      09/01/06 09:59      
                        the point I\'m trying to make (and believe that I      Erik Malund      09/01/06 10:46      
                           Yes, but in 101 you've got to use a '51 or '31      Richard Erlacher      09/01/06 13:47      
                              nonono      Jan Waclawek      09/01/06 14:16      
                                 Perhaps you\'re right, in this case ...      Richard Erlacher      09/01/06 14:40      
                                    I don't think so      Jan Waclawek      09/01/06 15:21      
                                       Ah but..      Steve M. Taylor      09/03/06 21:00      
                              halelujah!      Erik Malund      09/05/06 09:51      
                           the problem with RD2 is...      Jan Waclawek      09/01/06 14:17      
                              what cost the most      Erik Malund      09/05/06 09:58      
                                 cost      Jan Waclawek      09/06/06 08:40      
                                    patience is what it takes      Richard Erlacher      09/06/06 15:57      
         let's sort it out      Jan Waclawek      09/06/06 08:52      
   Richard, you aregue things that, while valuable ,      Erik Malund      09/05/06 09:56      
   Its not the cables if you ask me.      Jez Smith      09/06/06 15:25      
      an interesting thought      Erik Malund      09/06/06 15:39      
         It's probably not JUST this part ...      Richard Erlacher      09/06/06 16:01      
      not the cable alone      Jan Waclawek      09/07/06 01:00      
         it will, but      Erik Malund      09/07/06 06:34      
      It simply has to do with the numbers      Kai Klaas      09/07/06 09:02      
         maybe not quite ...      Richard Erlacher      09/07/06 09:33      
            I was assuming...      Kai Klaas      09/07/06 09:58      
               a case like that ...      Richard Erlacher      09/07/06 11:32      
                  I have      Erik Malund      09/07/06 11:43      
                     Perhaps it's that the approach is wrong      Richard Erlacher      09/07/06 15:29      
                        I guess I have seen those ... ...      Richard Erlacher      09/18/06 10:37      
   fresh thoughts      Jan Waclawek      09/18/06 07:52      
      ???????????????      Kai Klaas      09/18/06 11:03      
         I'm puzzled, too, Jan      Richard Erlacher      09/19/06 08:57      
            2 different things      Jan Waclawek      09/19/06 11:49      
               au contraire      Erik Malund      09/19/06 11:53      
                  from the ISP point of view...      Jan Waclawek      09/19/06 12:13      
                     if you have "no reset and oscillator"      Erik Malund      09/19/06 12:29      
                        sure      Jan Waclawek      09/19/06 12:36      
                           Ok \"in-situ programming\" works but that is not ISP      Erik Malund      09/19/06 12:51
