There are two diodes here and one was reading a voltage drop of 0.005V both ways. So it's no good.
But the problem is, I can't identify it since it's SMD and I'm not at all familiar with SMD diode markings. The good one measures somewhere around 0.2V forward voltage and of course OL in reverse.
I'm pretty sure (not 100%) this is in the 48V phantom power supply.
Probably not smart of me to have made an uneducated guess, but I tried a 1N4007 in this spot and it burned up pretty quick. Maybe the diode was wrong (of course it was, going by the forward voltage drop) or maybe that whatever killed the original diode is still dangerous to the new unit.
Open to any guesses at what the diode could be and thanks in advance!!
EDIT: Maybe Shottky?? EDIT again... I feel pretty dumb in this case. A silicon diode can't handle the fast switching frequency of the boost converter most likely feeding this thing. So it must be a shottky. Assuming that this is the phantom power circuit that this is a part of (unfortunately, I have no schematic).
