BAT43 or BAT42

nikhil · Sep 30, 2003

I am doing a project which is supposed to detect the microwave
emmissions from a mobile phone and set a light flashing. The circuit
prescribes a BAT43 Schottky diode.But the bat43 is not available in
any shops nearby. The BAT42 is available. Is it ok to useit? The
manuals dont exactly distinguish between either of the two.Thanks in
advance for any help.

From this data sheet:

And all the others I found on Google they seem to be identical.

Why not try one and see if it works?
