CA3141E high-voltage diode array pinout

DIP-16. Diode array in the DuoDisk read/write head switching

Ten matched 30 V diodes: three common-cathode pairs (cathodes on pins 3, 6, 14), two common-anode pairs (anodes on 8, 11) and the substrate on pin 9. Apple's DuoDisk chart lists it first for "motor and LED on but will not boot" and for "reads but does not write" on the 676-11101/11102 cards. How the DuoDisk board uses each diode is not in the documents found.
