Need Help Identifying components(PIC included)

zastickyone · 9th January 2012, 05:42 AM

Hi Everyone,

Please see the attached picture. I have 2 burnt SMD components (circled in red), I want to replace them, but I don't know what they are or their size. On one of them it says C6 - so I am guessing its a capacitor but don't know what size. Other one is labelled Q1, not sure what exactly that is. I would really appreciate if someone can please give me some direction on how to identify these components. Thanks....

Q1 would be a transistor, I've never seen Q for anything else. And it looks like one.

Without printing on the part, there is no way to tell you what the parts are from the photo. We'd want to see a schematic, or at least the make and model of whatever it is, so we might look it up.

Thanks. I asked the manufacturer for a schematic and or information about the board. They aren't willing to provide it. I guess that means I am out of luck? Is there any other way to possibly determine the values of these devices?

A start would be to share the secret - WHAT make and model is this item? perhaps someone has one we could look into.
