IXCP10M45

Current Regulation/Management Overview

The IXCP10M45 is a high voltage current regulator from the IXC series, manufactured by IXYS. It is designed as a non-switchable, two-terminal device suitable for both AC and DC applications. The component regulates current to a specified value in both directions, utilizing an internal configuration of two DC current regulators connected in series. This architecture ensures identical output characteristics in quadrants 1 and 3. The device operates with a maximum anode-cathode voltage of 450 V and provides a regulated current of 10 mA. It features a dynamic resistance range between 9 kΩ and 900 kΩ. The unit is housed in a TO-220AB package.

Current Regulation/Management Feature Summary

• Provides stable current regulation in both directions using internally connected DC regulators
• Operates effectively in both AC and DC circuit environments
• Features symmetric output characteristics across quadrants 1 and 3

Current Regulation/Management Applications

• High voltage AC current limiting circuits
• DC current regulation systems
• Industrial power control applications requiring bidirectional stability

Current Regulation/Management Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm exact electrical tolerances and package variations. Ensure compatibility with thermal management requirements for the TO-220AB housing. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for any updates regarding RoHS compliance or REACH status before final integration into production designs.

Current Regulation/Management Selection Notes

Select this component when a simple, robust solution for high voltage current stabilization is required without complex switching logic. The bidirectional capability makes it suitable for alternating current loads where consistent regulation is necessary regardless of polarity. Consider the dynamic resistance range when designing for specific load linearity requirements.

Current Regulation/Management Part Context

This part belongs to the IXC series of high voltage current regulators produced by IXYS. The series includes various models with different rated currents ranging from 2 mA to 60 mA, all sharing the same fundamental two-terminal operation principle and TO-220 packaging. These devices are engineered for reliability in demanding power electronics environments.

Current Regulation/Management Replacement Considerations

Check for other IXC series variants with similar current ratings if exact specifications are unavailable. Verify pinout compatibility for the TO-220AB package when substituting with generic high-voltage current regulators.
