Difference between 1N914 and 1N4148 diodes

#1 Post by makiyang614 » 19 Jun 2017 10:23

I always thought that the 1N4148 was an improved replacement for the obsolete 1N914, but I see that the 1N914 is still produced, and overmore, looking at the parameters for both on digikey they seem to be identical. What was the reason to create the 1N4148 if it's identical to the existing 1N914?

What is more, how to test 1N4148?
