Hello folks,

I need to know what kind of diode is an smd, mini-melf case, glass
diode with black white and green
color rings on it. I've tried to find a color code on the web but seems
like these diodes aren't so common.
Thanks in advance.

Truth is, if you totally don't know what it might be, you'll probably never find
out.

I think it's a zener, I'm pretty sure as I measured other diodes marked
as ZPDnn on
the same board and all indeed are zeners.

If you can determine the zener voltages of the other diodes, then you
may be able to make some sense of the colour code.

That's what I thought, unfortunately seems like there's no relation
between colors
and zener voltage. Probably the code just means it's a zener diode.
