mini-melf diode color rings?

Sep 20, 2006 4 Replies

Hello folks,



I need to know what kind of diode is an smd, mini-melf case, glass diode with black white and green color rings on it. I've tried to find a color code on the web but seems like these diodes aren't so common. Thanks in advance.

Truth is, if you totally don't know what it might be, you'll probably never find out.

I think it's a zener, I'm pretty sure as I measured other diodes marked as ZPDnn on the same board and all indeed are zeners.

If you can determine the zener voltages of the other diodes, then you may be able to make some sense of the colour code.

That's what I thought, unfortunately seems like there's no relation between colors and zener voltage. Probably the code just means it's a zener diode.
