Sb390 equivalent replacement

[Mandela]

I am repairing a dvd/vcr which needs a diode replaced. Specifically the sb390 (schottky barrier diode, 3A, 90V). I cannot find one online without ordering from outside of the US with ridiculous shipping rates. Does anyone know if a sb3100 (3A, 100V) would be an equivalent replacent? Being that it is only a 10v difference. Thank in advance.

Hello,

Diodes with higher current and/or voltage ratings can be used.

High speed rectifiers can be found very easily. The 1N4*** series are rated at 1A and the 1N54** at 3A and BOTH versions are available as UF(4 or 54)*** coding for the 'ultra-fast' versions.

i.e. UF5402 = 100V @ 3A
i.e. UF4007 = 1000V @ 1A
