IXYS Discrete Thyristors
IXYS offers a large range of discrete thyristors, including SCR, TRIAC, SIDAC, QUADRAC, fast thyristors, GTO thyristors, medium voltage thyristors and phase control thyristors
Discrete thyristors act as unidirectional or bidirectional solid state switches and overvoltage protection devices in electronic equipment. Ideal for a wide range of applications including motor speed, lighting and heater controls.
IXYS Discrete Thyristors
- They are solid state switches that are usually open circuits (very high impedance)
- They are capable of withstanding rated blocking/off-state voltage until triggered to on state
- When triggered to on-state, they become a low-impedance current path until the principle current either stops or drops below a minimum holding level
- After a thyristor is triggered to on-state condition, the trigger current can be removed without turning off the device
Key Features
- High voltage and ampere ratings
- Unidirectional and bi-directional transient voltage protection
- Automatically triggered “off” for specified periods of time
- RoHS compliant
- Glass-passivated junctions
- High voltage capability up to 1000V
- High surge capability up to 950
Typical Applications
- Home appliances – lighting, heating, temperature control, alarm activation and fan speed
- Electrical tools – for controlled actions such as motor speed, stapling event and battery charging
- Outdoor equipment – water sprinklers, gas engine ignition, electronic displays, area lighting and sports equipment
