Can anyone identify the type of diode and its company?

 

I don't believe its a general purpose diode because it is connected in reverse direction in the circuit like Zener diode
and moreover if I give 24Volts to this diode it stops all the voltage and allows only 3.3v to be output across a 100kohm resistor
and if i give 12volts then also the output is 3.3v across a 100kohm resistor

 

Nope this is also not right - as i said its put in reverse condition
Input is 12V ~ 36V
Output is always 3.3v across 100kohm resistance
check the circuit

 

This is an Input to the micro controller pin
It is used for detecting if 12~36 v are applied on the wire, if yes, then 3.3v is output from this and microcontroller receives high input
when voltage is removed it receives low input

 

Commented on the board design

 

Yes, Dear, Microcontroller is 3.3v Powered, I am actually trying to understand how is this circuit regulating and providing 3.3v from 12~36v without any mosfet, transistor or zener diode

 

In my opinion the only option possible in this scenario is the constant current limiting diode. If we have a constant current then we can have fix voltage drop across the resistor.
For example if the diode is outputting fix 0.1mA current
then the voltage drop by 100K resistance would be 10v
and if the series unknown resistor is of 33K which is possibly the pull down of the microcontroller as per its datasheet
it will give 3.3 Reference voltage .. no matter whatever voltage you apply on the diode
but i am not 100% sure about all this

 

Constant-current diode
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Electric symbol
Constant-current diode is an electronic device that limits current to a maximum specified value for the device. It is known as current-limiting diode (CLD), current-regulating diode (CRD).


Internal structure
These diodes consist of an n-channel JFET-transistor with the gate shorted to the source, which functions like a two-terminal current limiter or current source (analogous to a voltage-limiting Zener diode). They allow a current through them to rise to a certain value, and then level off at a specific value. Unlike Zener diodes, these diodes keep the current constant instead of the voltage constant. These devices keep the current flowing through them unchanged when the voltage changes. An example is the 1N5312. Note the negative VGS is required, as an example on the n-type junction-gate field-effect transistor 2N5457.

 

No, its working fine its the curiosity of how it is sending 3.3v to the microcontroller which is making me work hard over finding the solution of the puzzle

 

The number sort of looks like a Shottky barrier diode, a bit more research to identify it - or take it out and check the Vf with a DMM diode check.

SB diodes are great for protection because they fail short circuit very convincingly if abused.
