I'm fixing a laptop and am trying to identify a transistor which I
believe may be popped. Well I assume that's what it is. It has all
three legs connected.

It is SOT-23 and marked MO5 or could be M05 (letter Oh or digit zero).

There are a couple of others onboard and I believe it's part of the
power supply.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,

They generally use code numbers, not part of the actual number. There
are a couple databses on line like this one to help identify SMD semis.

Are manufacturer's allowed to put whatever code they like on devices ?
So is it possible to have 2 functionally different devices (on same
package?) with the same code ?
