Hey PrepHole! Can you find me a part that is equivalent to the FML-G12S? I am in the of restoring a Panasonic AG-1830 power supply and this diode is fricking dead. They don't sell these anymore but it's specs are on digikey: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/sanken-electric-usa-inc/FML-G12S/4289248?s=N4IgTCBcDaIGIFkAyBxAjGAyiAugXyA
yeah if only there were a way to find a comparable substitute.
guess you're fricked.
Doesn't have to be exact. A replacement that is close as possible.
Also it doesn't have to be the same form factor. I don't care what it is. I just want it to werk.
I just want you to frick off
I just want you to help me. Jeez, do you have anger issues or something? Take your meds please. 🙂
Jesus, I don't think OP looked at your pic.
frick off this isn't 4chatgpt or mootgle
What if it is anon? 🙂
Where is it located? Not super critical likely...just match current rating, Vf and switching time.
Use a paper clip.

>FML-G12S is a fast recovery diode of 200 V /5 A. The maximum trr of 40 ns
So you need fast recovery diode, that can handle 200V or more, 5A or more, and trr less than 40 ns (which isnt that critical)
If you can't figure out, you should stop, because you're dicking with a power supply, and you do need to understand how it works. And if you did, you won't be asking question that stupid.

your welcome.
thank goodness the helpful boomer showed up to spoonfeed the moron who has the answer to his dumb question right in front of his face on the same product page he gave us.
now we know how smart he is.

A boomer would not help him.

I hope you don't mind it smelling like poo when it heats up.
Just curious why putting energy into an 1830? For $120 you could get an equivalent more modern deck, with TBC and other features. If you are gonna go and replace caps and shit, might as well get an old 1980
