    Laser engraver diode burned?

    Hi all

    I have 2 laser modules broken? (from engraver 100x100 cnc)
    The electronics drivers are fine.
    The diodes seem to be dead, both of them.
    One is (electric) 15W and the small is 2.5W as in the picture.

    Can I replace them by buying only the diode? Can you tell me which one to buy , i think they are 405nm and blue but do not know if can be replaced..and prices for them? I have already removed the 15w module as in the photo.

    thanks in advance.

    Yeah you can replace the diodes. Just get the ones what are marked with the same Input power. I have a 12V 3A one with a 20W 450nm output.
    You should see in the specifications what is the lasers input. The output can be different and do not need to be 1 to 1, as long the driver board can support what it needs, but ofc safer is to get the closest one to the original.
    From where to buy it all depends, my own laser is ordered straight from China (Aliexpress) few years ago.

      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...

      Motorbike PCB - burned Diodes ( PJ78) - help to identify identical or equivalent
      by magneh
      Hello everyone

      Got a motorbike PCB that had 3 burned diodes.

      The smaller ones have the marking PJ78 GS1M
      And one larger one PJ78 GEX

      Can someone help me identify them so I can be able to replace with same or equivalent?

      Apreciate !
      Thank you...

      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...

      Zombie Samsung UN55NU6900F dead / no standby voltage - randomly came to life after hours of troubleshooting then died
      by tvguy12012012120
      This is my first attempt at troubleshooting a board like this, I know I could just buy a new board but I'm curious to figure out how this works. I've been testing different components in the evenings this week and I think the problem is with the IC failing to start up for some reason. When the board is plugged in there is no standby voltage.

      Then today it randomly sprung to life like a zombie but shortly died thereafter. I have no idea why it would have done that and its the first time I've seen it running. I discharged capacitors on the board last night, then it was sitting today....

      Lenovo Miix 300 schematics for a burned diode.
      by Bartoloni
      this is the diode (on detachable keyboard)
      burned because the customer inserted the power jack on a USB port...

      anyone know what diode can be this?

      2 pics on attachments

      probably thesame diode can be found on miix 310 ... or 320.. but icanĂ t find schematics about this "new" miix tablets....
