Unusual functions of cheap parts

A 1N4007 can also be used as a drift step-recovery diode and as a plasma avalanche diode. Together, two can generate a kilovolt edge with a 100 ps risetime. GAASfets make good fast analog switches; they behave pretty much like jfets. Wide-open LDO regulators make nice resettable fuses. Ferrite beads do all sorts of interesting stuff. Power mosfets make good heaters, and TO-220 bipolar transistors make nice temperature sensors. LVDS line receivers are surprisingly good comparators, and *fast* I could go on...
