SMD code 76

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.

5 parts are printed 76

Not sure which one you have?

Answer up to 4 quick questions and these 5 parts are ranked, with a meter test that settles it. It works on a dead part too.

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.

Schottky diode

Diode range, part lifted or one leg off the pad. Red probe on the anode.

Working, it reads

About 0.15 to 0.45 V anode to cathode, roughly half a silicon diode, and open the other way.

Dead, it reads

  • The same reading both ways round, near 0 V with a continuous beep or the same middling value: shorted.
  • A reading the wrong way round as well: leaky.
  • Open both ways: failed open.
On the board
this is a first look only: the meter reads every path between those pins, and a short can be a neighbour. Lift one leg before you condemn it.
Compare:
If an identical part sits elsewhere on the board, measure it the same way: that is what this one should read.
Watch for:
A large Schottky can read about 0.1 V forward and beep like a short, and leaks a little the wrong way when good, more when warm. It is shorted only if it reads the same both ways. Measure it cold, beside an identical cold one.

A dead part still carries its marking. A short or an open says it has failed, not that it is a different part.

Resistor

Ohms range, across it, power off.

Working, it reads

Its marked value, within tolerance. On the board it reads the same or lower, because everything around it sits in parallel.

Dead, it reads

  • Open: burnt, cracked, or eaten through by sulphur. The commonest failure.
  • Well above its marked value: drifted high.
  • On the board, clearly higher than its marked value: it has failed, since the board can only pull a reading down.
On the board:
A reading lower than marked on the board proves nothing; lift one end. A reading higher than marked is a fault even on the board.
Compare:
The same position on another channel usually carries the same value, and so does the matching part on another board.
Watch for:
A burnt resistor usually means the part it feeds pulled too much. Find that before fitting a new one, or it burns too. The marking, not the reading, says what to fit.

A dead part still carries its marking. A short or an open says it has failed, not that it is a different part.

Printed with a code easy to misread as 76

One character differs, and it is one that is easy to confuse under a lamp. Each code has a page of its own.

Codes that begin with 76

For a marking with its end worn or burnt off. Each code has a page of its own.
