Barry, I think you should incorporate the 1N5817 protection in all of your designs. It’s far superior to the shunt 1N4001 scheme. Love your PCB’s; built a bunch of them. Thanks.
You should Like GuitarPCB on Facebook or Instagram to stay on top of all the circuits I am presently updating and adding a 1N5817 is part of that upgrade. Visuals and info on FB and Instagram as well as a thread here.
