    installing small diodes

    I have a power supply repair kit to install today, i can do the IC and the mosfets no problem but im trying to sus out which way round the diodes go in place (1SS355)

    these are very small and even under my magnifying glass i cant see any writing on them to show which way round they go..

        diodes are facing up in the foto - anode down, cathode up.

          On M-Audio AV40 active studio speaker's two zener diodes get really hot.
          by Dvsr
          Hi. I need help from wiser guys. I am amateur in electronics and can't figure this out by myself.
          I bought faulty speakers, M-Audio AV40's. Other speaker has all the electronics in it and the other speaker is just passive one powered by the other speaker's amp. Original problem with the speakers was loud buzzing. I figured out that there is something wrong with the capacitors. I went ahead and replaced every electrolytic capacitor on the PCB. The caps are good quality and have the same values as the original ones.
          After replacing the caps I started testing out the speaker. It seemed...

          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...
