Metalisation creep?
Why would a SMPS high speed Unitrode rectifier stud diode 1N5812 , 20 amp,
fail sitting around in a normal human occupation heated environment for 10 years unused? Currently reads a stable 6.2 ohms. Replaced with a new one but I intend passing ever increasing current through the old one to see what happens. Any other ideas concerning cause or analysis ? -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |
