    Need Help IDing Diodes

    can anyone help identifying these three diodes please? ive tried googling for 2 days with no success! They are from a Japanese audio board for a slot machine built my guess around 2000. They seem to have spec'd Japanese manufacturers for everything else. the approx dimensions are on the photos.
    Curious right leaning tick mark on D1 & D2, backwards Z? on D3

    Can you measure the voltage across D1 ?

      thank you for your interest:
      I'm also attaching a picture of the surrounding board area in case that helps.
      Probably a buck converter on bottom right. IC5 is a LM2596T-5

      Diode mode measure on DMM
      Forward Reverse
      D1 0.497 V 2.165 V
      D2 0.88 V 2.003 V
      D3 0.171 V 1.5 V and up- filling capacitor C8
      Note assumed pin 3 single on top, pin 1 bottom left and 2 right
      Pin 2 not connected
      Fwd measure pin 1 red probe, pin 2 black
      Reverse just opposite

        Re: Need Help IDing Diodes

        Okay , but I wanted to measure voltages in DC volts mode , not in diode mode . Anyway , LM2596T-5 is a regulated DC 5v output at pin2 and usually 12v Unregulated input at pin 1 .
        With black probe on pin3 of LM2596T-5, measure with the red one pin 1 and 2 , and next , both sides of D1.

            No , It's a Zener Diode (SOT-23) BZX84C10 ..I forgot about this thread since he didn't reply ..I only need his reply to affirm D1 and D2 .

              Thanks to jiroy & kasfamily:
              sorry been tied up and couldnt get back to the bench. one problem i have is this board had some shorts, and i had to remove an audio amp so the circuit is interrupted. i also dont have the power inputs or any output cables, so i have to sketch it out. i injected 12v at 500mA to get some measurements.
              pin1 to 3 of the voltage regulator 11.93V, pin 2-3 11.26V
              D1 forward 11.93V, Reverse 11.26V.
              Hope this helps

                Injecting doesn't help .. the LM2596T-5 has an internal on/off switch , mostly triggered by the machine slot occurences .. Anyway , those parts are seemingly discontinued or discrete .

                  well thank you for your interest and comments. i believe you are correct, they seem to be at the least discontinued.

                    What Zener Diodes on a Linear Power Supply
                    by caspian
                    Dear members,

                    I have a linear variable power supply with unknown brand name that I used for voltage injection.
                    Then it failed. I discovered that its transistors (Q1 and Q2) are shorted.
                    In addition, I discovered that its zener diodes are defective.
                    I can replace the burned transistors.
                    But I do not know the model of the zener diodes. the model number is not marked on the zener diodes.
                    Therefore, I cannot replace the zener diodes.
                    I do not want to test the zener diodes in a test circuit to discover their model or value.
                    no schematics are available...

                    BN44-00505A dead. Need to know voltages on output diodes (Samsung T22B300EW)
                    by Fontana
                    1. g´day! I have a samsung 22" tv monitor to fix. power supply model bn44-00505A. some stuff blown up on the primary, according to research something typical on this model. secondary seems ok. writings on the board say in outputs a5v (standby), b5v (switched) both on the lower 3 diodes on the picture, vamp and b13v (12.8v, both are the linked at the connector that goes to the main board) my question is, are both the upper diodes for 13v? I believe so but wanted to make sure before injecting voltage there to test. I injected 5v on the lower side and standby circuit is working fine
                    2. if
                    ...

                    Lenovo T480s usb-c charging port replacement - Knocked off a couple of diodes.
                    by Nikolai Danylchyk
                    Hi folks. As the title says, I was doing a port replacement on a Lenovo Thinkpad T480s and in the process of post-solder cleaning, I somehow knocked off 2 or 3 diodes (i think they are diodes) near the main usb-c. I can't seem to find what kind of a diode is that. I know it's ultra tiny and just has a letter "G" on it. Would someone maybe have a proper schematic for the t480s model? I can only find the non-s one and it's quite different to the "s". Would love to figure out what component that is.
                    Thanks in advance!...

                    Zener diodes component equivalents
                    by DjKrish
                    Hey guys, i have a sony home theater power supply thats a few smd zener diodes blown but its so hard to get them. any recommendation for me to use normal zener diodes?

                    1. UDZSTE-1710B (9.99V 5mA) (SC-90, SOD-323F)

                    2. UDZSTE-1724B (24V 200mW) (SC-90, SOD-323F)

                    3. UDZSTE-175.1B (5.1 V 200 mW) (SC-90, SOD-323F)

                    These are the diodes. If i use normal zener diodes, it will work right? Question is, can i get these values on normal zener diodes?

                    Samsung QE55Q65B with shorted D001 diodes on panel board: Worth saving or not
                    by madyoyo
                    Hi

                    I have a Samsung QE55Q65B with a seemingly common problem: it turn off and back on after a few seconds, (sometimes more, and in rare instances works for hours). D001 on the left side of the panel is very hot. I may be able to remove it with a very fine iron, but i don't have the equipment to re-solder such small parts.

                    Is there a risk to run the tv without this diodes diodes? And is it worth to pay someone else to replace it. I read many people who ended up with bad lines after trying to remove/replace them, , or the panel failing in another way, so i want to weight...
