SMD code W93
Marking codes are not standardised, and the same code is reused by unrelated makers for unrelated parts. Below is every part in our tables printed with it, and any printed with a code that is easy to misread as it, from the manufacturers' own marking tables and published code lists.

Is it dead? One meter test per kind
Parts of the same kind are tested the same way, so each test is here once. Each part above points to its own.
Integrated circuit
Voltage with the board powered; ohms from each pin to ground with it off.
Working, it reads
Supply pin at its voltage and the output doing what the datasheet says. Readings between pins depend on the part.
Dead, it reads
- A pin near 0 Ω to ground or to the supply pin where an identical part does not read that: failed short.
- Supply present, output stuck: failed, or its load has.
- On the board:
- A pin shorted to ground on the board can be anything on that net. Lift the pin to be sure.
- Compare:
- The surest reference is the same IC on a working board, measured pin by pin.
- Watch for:
- Its protection diodes can read like junctions between pins, even like a transistor. That proves nothing either way.
A dead part still carries its marking. A short or an open says it has failed, not that it is a different part.
RF amplifier
Voltage, board powered, on the output pin that the bias resistor or choke feeds.
Working, it reads
The output pin sits at the device voltage the datasheet gives, a few volts, below the supply.
Dead, it reads
- Output pin at 0 V, or near 0 Ω to ground with the power off: shorted inside.
- Output pin at the full supply voltage: open inside, no current flowing.
- On the board:
- Measured on the board with power on; the bias network is part of the reading.
- Compare:
- If an identical part sits elsewhere on the board, measure it the same way: that is what this one should read.
- Watch for:
- The figures depend on the part and its bias resistor. The datasheet gives both.
A dead part still carries its marking. A short or an open says it has failed, not that it is a different part.
