    Is this a diode?

    Is this a diode? Please see pics, identifier is RU4Y above a second line saying 1N, but I cannot identify. Can I use for a 1N5408? Thanks.

      The RU4Y is a 2 amp 100volt fast recovery diode, The 1N5408 is a 3 amp 1000 volt standard diode
      The 1n5408 will likely not work in a switching power supply

        2A diodes are not popular, hard to find in North America. I would use UF5402 3A 200V fast recovery.
        1N540x is very slow diode.

          Standard recovery 1N540x would probably get toasted if a fast recovery type is necessary.

          On the other hand, a UF5402 is much faster than the original part, and might generate extra noise with its fast turn-on.

          A closer match would be an MR852. The MR850 series has been around a long time. As the part number suggests it was originally a Motorola part, among the many Mot sold to On Semi. I remember seeing MR85x parts in use as Boschert when I was there in the early 1980s.

            Corsair RM1000e - Help identify 5VSB Zener diode
            by hobostove
            Hey there guys. I've got a Corsair power supply that's come across my bench dead. I usually don't mess with power supplies, but it's a slow week so I'm giving it a whirl.

            Taking it apart I heard a screw rattling around inside, and when I got it apart I found a couple blown components near what I think is the 5VSB area.

            There's a 22ohm resistor that's melted and open, but it still has the bands.

            The other part is a zener diode and it's top went to jesus, so I can't read the marking.

            It looks like the diode connects the source and drain of a TNY284...

            AUO M270QAN01 - identify diode?
            by jjne
            Hi,

            I have a small number of monitors based on the above panel and am working through them. I have at least two with a single, burned-out diode. From what I can see it's something like DI428 or DII428 or DH428. Here's a picture of a working one.

            Can anyone identify this please? Based on the number 428 it may be a shottky or a Zener according to Google. The device in question is D105.

            ETA I can confirm that the number is definitely 428 (I took a video which revealed a better image), the DII appears to be a maker's mark. There's also a code 1G. Looking around...

            Identify replacement diode
            by jezzaaaa
            I'm trying to find a replacement diode for one that has gone short.

            I have a generic USB charger that went short circuit to ground on 5V. I found that one of a pair of identical diodes in parallel (and in series with transformer secondary winding) has gone short in both directions, so I suspect it's bad. The marking is CSRS1045, which I believe is a low barrier Schottky with max current 10A and max reverse 45V. I found a spec sheet for CSRS1045-A that has same specs and also says 350mV drop when forward biased.

            I can't find the exact part number for sale. Similar...

            Ubiquitiu 24 port POE. Help Identify Diode 3pin)
            by gurj1979
            Hi again guys.
            Ive got a Ubiquiti 24 port POE Switch which has failed to work. Fans turn on, but no lights.
            I've ripped the board out, flipped it upside down and noticed a blown 3pin SMD Diode (at location D53). Marking is ESSP (as with all the other Diodes in the same row).

            Anyone help me identify the model of this Diode ?...

            help for identify an smd diode
            by digitalblade
            I need to identify the diode on attached image. is an SMD diode on damaged board.
            As more wide question... there is a way to identify any smd component in a more or less simple way?
            Every time that i need to identify some components with no schematics is a nightmare for me!

            Thank you for any kind of support!...
