Hi Chris!

"About the Schottky FRED, I thought they were two different things, but Digikey carries a whole bunch like the MURB1520-ND."

Look carefully at the datasheet. It shows a Vf (forward voltage drop) of .85 volts or so. That ain't no Schottky. There appears to be either errors or fudging going on here.

A real Schottky has a Vf of .3 to .4 volts. Look one up.
