Hi,
Could anyone tell me which diode is D1 on the MC2100ELS-18W-2Y board?
It burned out and I need to replace it but I can't read the part number.

Thanks so much

Hard to tell. It could be the same part as D4, or it could be a totally different part. If it is indeed a regular diode (not sure of that), one ending with an 8 could be a 1N5408 3A diode, or it could be some other type of diode like a 22V zener, 1N4708.
Without a schematic or at least a partial drawing of the circuit where that diode is, we are all guessing...

PS: for a diode to go like that, that usually suggests some other component has gone short circuit and is drawing excessive current thru that diode. The diode is a symptom, the cause may well be elsewhere.

Thanks for reply. I try to draw the scheme from the pcb.

You are absolutely right, I replaced a schottky diode that was shorted (see attached picture).

I don't have much detail but this part of a reverse-engineered schematic shows them but unfortunately no part No.
It looks as though D1 has taken some current!
I believe the W8251 should be W6251

Max.

Thanks for the info. The diode was damaged due to a short circuit (see my replay to sagor). You are right the converter is W6251.
I'll try with a 1N4007 that I have available...

G'day Massy,
I too appear to have the same fault. Searching for a circuit but so far no joy, but have identified that the same Schottky diode on my board is short. Did you replace anything else or did the replacement solve your issue?

I have also desoldered the D1 on my board as it too has signs of heat stress but tests okay out of circuit. But I can identify the part. It is HER108G so a 1n4007 would be a suitable replacement

I too, got the same issue and had the same exact diodes malfunctioning.

Can I get some help with the part numbers for D1 and D8?

Thanks!

Just had a looked at D8 from the schematics. It looks different from mine.

I took them out. Part numbers are:
D8: sb560
D10: her108g

I can replace her108g with 1n4007.

But I can't seem to find a replacement for sb560 easily.
