Title: Nom Nom - Which 5.1 Zener diode?
Post by: AntKnee on June 27, 2014, 02:19:36 PM
Wow, I had no idea how many words had "nom" in them until I tried a search for this...  ;D

I am wondering if it matters which 5.1 zener I use in the Nom Nom. Mouser has a lot to choose from. Those of you that have built this pedal, what did you use?
Thanks!

1/2W or 1W will work. This one should be okay: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Fairchild-Semiconductor/1N5231CTR/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtQ8nqTKtFS%2fJIts9HBLkA2GFnVtphSpBw%3d
