Verify polarity with a meter

Required

With board power disconnected, isolate the part if other paths can affect the reading. For each branch put the red diode-test probe on its anode and the black probe on its cathode.

Bench checks

  • D1: forward from pin 1 to pin 3; reverse the probes to check blocking.

Models and documents

L42 is documented for onsemi BAT54A and Diodes BAT54ATA in SOT-23, and PANJIT BAT54AW in SOT-323. All three have a 1+2 lead pattern. Check the package body size and confirm forward conduction from pin 3 to both pins 1 and 2. The N 8 characters do not establish the manufacturer or date.
