I have a small electronic board from a hand held snow plow controller. The diode is cracked on one.

I would like to replace this component but want to make sure I get the correct one from digikey. The hand controllers are very expensive and I would like to at least attempt to fix them before buying a new one.

These other ones I just want to identify because I need additional ones that fell of the circuit board and are lost now.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Thank you. Some eCAD software uses Z designator for all diodes by default, but most don’t. The logo on it looks like ST. \$\endgroup\$

The 1st diode you already found yourself: SMBJ15CA from STMicroelectronics.


The 2nd diode is from a company formerly known as General Semiconductor.
enter image description here

According to Wikipedia Vishay Intertechnology has acquired General Semiconductor in 2001.

So the BM/2B could be SMBJ15A from Vishay Intertechnology.


The 3rd diode: S1GB-13-F from Diodes Incorporated.
