Help with diode part number
I've got a shorted diode in a power supply. The diode is very small
and I cannot figure out a replacement part. I think its a zener or switching diode. It is the redish gold color type with a black band. Its very very small and the only numbers on it are 442 (but it could be 244 or 424 since the number wrap around). Anyone have an idea what the specs are for this so I can replace it? Thanks, Stephen |

I encountered two of a similar type diode, with 3 nubers that wrap around the tiny diode, in a Pioneer receiver last week. I entered the model # and circuit reference designator on Pioneer's customer service website, and found they were MTZJ- series zener diodes, and one of the three numbers is actually a letter. Your 244 is likely 24A, and would be MTZJ-24A. These are 0.5 watt Zeners made by Leshan Radio Corp in China. They are spec'd to run at 5 mA current, lower than the common U.S. 1N52xx series zeners. The letter suffix denotes where in the tolerance range the actual voltage is, A is at the low end, D at the high end of the +/- 5% tolerance range. Mike WB2ME |

Thanks, Stephen if its a 1n244 then is a 1 amp silicone diode rated rated around 600 V per NTE any other number indicates from NTE that is a zener diode and that you need more info. |
