Yes you can. The UF is a significantly faster diode. The peak forward surge current is 50 amps less, but apart from that they have much the same characteristics.

Can I swap the IN5408 with BY255 diodes in power stage of my tube amp?

The 1N5408 is rated 3 amperes forward current and 1000 volt reverse voltage, with a 200 ampere peak surge current rating. The BY255 is rated 3 amperes forward current and 1300 volt reverse voltage, with a 100 amperes peak surge current rating. The two diodes are comparable, but the 1N5408 has a higher transient rating. Since it does not seem that you are talking about a power supply application, you can probably substitute the BY255 for a 1N5408. It depends on the circuit design, but most circuits (if properly designed) are over-rated so, again, it would probably work. I would not use the BY255 in the power supply, however, due to the short term transient that comes from turning on the power. Again, circuit design prevails, and it might work even there, because inrush current will be limited by the inductance of the transformer and the dynamic resistance of the diode.


Foster-seely of FM demodulation?

Just like a diode demodulator extracts audio from the last IF stage in an AM radio, a Foster Seely or similar discriminator circuit extracts or demodulates audio from the last IF stage in a FM radio.

Do LED stage lighting setups use much power?

LED stage lighting setups use more power than fluorescent light setups because LED stage lighting shines much brighter thus the need for more power than any other lighting.

Why the name is Transistor-transistor logic?

TTL - transistor-transistor logic uses connections between transistors to perform logic functions, rather than connections using resistors or diodes.T - transistor input stage (logic section)T - transistor output stage (power gain section)L - logicEarlier logic families like DTL (D - diode input stage) and RTL (R - resistor input stage) used different components in the input circuit and simpler output circuits.Later logic families like IIL (Integrated Injection Logic) and CMOS (Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) used entirely different circuits without separating into input (logic) and output (power gain) stages and significantly reduced power consumption, making dramatically higher levels of integration practical.
