High-temperature SCRs offer high-thermal performance of 16A or 20A rms

Now available from Mouser, STMicroelectronics' TN Series high-temperature silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) offer high-thermal performance of 16A or 20A rms. The TN Series noise immunity, gate triggering current and turn-on current rise allow the design of robust and compact control circuits. TN Series SCRs are typically used for voltage regulators in motorcycles and industrial drives, over-voltage crowbar protection, motor control circuits in power tools and kitchen appliances, and inrush current limiting circuits. The insulated full-pack package allows a back-to-back configuration, says the company.
