Help Identifying Diode
« on: February 03, 2021, 04:03:06 am »
Hi,
 I was wondering if anyone knows how to find out what type of diode this is. I did some looking around, but could not find anything specific. It did look like Vishay bought General Semiconductor that the symbol on the diode shows. Attached is a picture of the diode. Does anyone have a great resource for identifying components such as this one that I am unaware of.

It could be an SMBJ6.0A unidirectional TVS diode:

Maybe 1SMC14A ? 
A 3.5 digit 4.5 digit 5 digit 5.5 digit 6.5 digit 7.5 digit DMM is good enough for most people.

OK, maybe not!  :)

It was a  SMBJ6.0A, but it was directional. Thanks for the help!
