Yes, that's the easiest way.

I’ve seen used in power supplies too. |
Is their dc rating (25v) high enough for a 24v YJPS psu? |
Is it a problem their non-polar (bipolar) design, when used in the power section? |
Is it possible to mount the YJPS pcb vertically to save space or perhaps will the heatsinks reach too high a temperature this way, as their fins are more effective if not horizontal? |
the recommended heatsinks are from 25 to 50 mm, so perhaps the shorter one is still suitable for the expected heat |
Is it recommended a gain of 2x or 3x in PPA v2? I’m going to test with PPA the AD8610, AD8065, AD744 (pin 5 out) and LM49710 opamps |

I'm thinking that an NTE457 may serve as an alternate. |

You see people recommending so many distributors more because no one has all the best stuff, rather than primarily because of different preferences. There are a few valid reasons to buy NTE parts, none of which apply here: - you have more money than sense - you need a specific part and the original manufacturer no longer makes it, but NTE carries a replacement - you have a local NTE dealer and can't wait for a mail order The 2N5458 and 5459 look like better bets to me. But again, I think you'd still be better off getting some cheap Fairchilds from Mouser and letting the price difference cover the extra shipping charge. |
