mistery diode

[FLASH823]

i dont know the modle number of this diode so all the schematics on here dont help me, i got it from an xbox sled and ive never see a diode like this. i hope someone can tell me what the pin configuration is and any other information i should know.

The pictures are dark. Are the pins in a straight line? Is the diode round or flat?

[FLASH823]

the diode is round open can, and the pins are all in a line and the case appears to be made of plastic

Can you take some better pictures.

 

[FLASH823]

here these turned out allot better

 

[FLASH823]

there were 2 diodes in the sled this one was the one that had the big heat sink attached to it so i dont think its a weak IR

 

[FLASH823]

it was kinda like that but a little different, i dont care what color it is what is the pin setup and how many volts does it take

Your first post says its from an Xbox sled, if thats the case you have a very weak red/ir combo diode.

 

[FLASH823]

if its a combo then what was the other diode in it for

 

[FLASH823]

the other diode didnt look like the ones up there although it was a normal closed can 3 pin diode it had no heat sink and looked like it was set up to be the ir diode, im pretty sure that this one is the blueray diode

You say xbox sled do you mean an original xbox or xbox 360?

 

[FLASH823]

not sure i bought the sled off of ebay so it didnt come out of an xbox but it is a replacement sled

 

[DTR]

Yea but is it supposed to be a replacement sled for an xbox or an xbox 360?

The only reason I ask is that you keep saying xbox not xbox 360 and Tikilaser is talking about an HD DVD.:thinking:

oh srry i misunderstood and didnt think about that earlyer when i said xbox, but i did mean xbox 360 this is the sled http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/334684485/HOP_141X_Laser_Lens_For_Xbox360.html, and i know that its supposed to have a decent laser thats why i was pretty sure it wasnt a weak ir, i do apologize for the miscommunication though.

The PHR-803T sled comes from the External "HD" DVD DRIVE of the Xbox in the Xbox. The sled you got is for the DVD Drive. Witch is a weak red/ir combo diode.

What you wanted to get is this:

>>>PHR-803T<<<

This contains the Blu-ray 405nm diode.

thank you for all your help i guess i just didnt realize that there were 2 different sleds for the 360. i feel kinda dumb now, and i still dont know what the other diode in the sled was if this is a red/ir combo. but thanks for all the help.
