Title: Legit MA856 and 1S1588 diodes ?
Post by: danielzink on March 05, 2014, 10:46:35 PM

I googled and can't really come up with any definitive pictures of these dudes.

Got my QoB boards yesterday and was rummaging through the parts bin and found these.

Anyone know for positive that they're legit ?

Yep. They aren't really necessary, but those do look like the ones I got years ago for my own KOT build.

Measure the 856s to be sure. They should be closer to .7-.8V.

The 1588s look right and they're not nearly as rare, so a fake is unlikely (and they're direct 4148 equivalents anyway, so even if they're fake they'll basically act the same).
