Hi. Im new here and trying to repair a circuitboard.

I am trying to get hold of this diode(?). How do I read the numbers on top. Google gave me nothing i'm afraid.

It says P208 and BFP.

Regards
Ingemar

It is SMCJ36A TVS diode (Transient Voltage Suppressor)
Manufacturer is Brightking.

It is a bi-directional TVS. Chances are that there is nothing wrong with it unless it is exhibiting a short in both directions.
Thx alot.

The diode turned black when att battery was mounted wrong way and it smells burnt. Everything else looks fine in the circuit so I will try to change the and see if it works again.
