C783CC

SCRs - Modules Overview

The Powerex C783CC is a single SCR module rated for 3.3 kV repetitive peak voltage and 2826 A RMS on-state current. It utilizes a TO-200AF base-mounted package designed for high-power industrial applications. The device supports a maximum average on-state current of 1800 A and withstands non-repetitive surge currents of up to 29,000 A at 60 Hz. Operating within a junction temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, it features a maximum gate trigger voltage of 4.5 V and a gate trigger current of 250 mA.

SCRs - Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure correct electrical characteristics and pinout configuration. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to procurement. Cross-reference the DigiKey part number C783CC-ND with the original Powerex documentation to validate component authenticity and technical specifications.

SCRs - Modules Selection Notes

Select this component for circuits requiring high voltage isolation and substantial continuous current handling. Ensure the cooling system can manage thermal dissipation given the 2826 A RMS rating. Verify that the gate drive circuit provides sufficient voltage and current to meet the 4.5 V and 250 mA trigger requirements under all operating conditions.

SCRs - Modules Part Context

The C783CC belongs to the C783 series of silicon controlled rectifier modules manufactured by Powerex Inc. This series is engineered for demanding power electronics environments where reliability under high stress is critical. The module integrates a single SCR element into a standardized TO-200AF housing, facilitating integration into larger power conversion assemblies.

SCRs - Modules Replacement Considerations

Consult Powerex official documentation for qualified substitute part numbers. Verify that any replacement matches the 3.3 kV voltage rating, 2826 A RMS current capacity, and TO-200AF mechanical footprint.
