K2200GH

Overview

The Littelfuse K2200GH is a high-voltage trigger diode, classified as a Sidac device within the Teccor product family. It is designed for overvoltage protection and triggering applications in electronic circuits. The component utilizes a DO-15 through-hole package, suitable for standard PCB mounting techniques. As part of the K2xx0GHU series, it provides reliable switching characteristics for protecting sensitive components from voltage transients.

Feature Summary

• High-voltage triggering capability for circuit protection
• Through-hole installation via DO-15 axial leaded package
• Sidac technology for symmetrical bidirectional switching

Applications

• Triggering silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) and triacs
• Overvoltage protection in AC power lines
• Gas discharge tube triggering circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against official Littelfuse documentation to confirm specific electrical tolerances and compliance status. Ensure the DO-15 package matches the target board layout. Confirm RoHS and REACH compliance requirements with the supplier prior to ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component based on the required breakover voltage and peak current handling capabilities. Verify that the DO-15 package size fits the mechanical constraints of the assembly. Consider the thermal dissipation requirements if the device operates continuously near its limits.

Part Context

This device belongs to the Littelfuse Teccor family of thyristors and protective devices. The K2xx0 series represents high-voltage trigger diodes used primarily for initiating other semiconductor switches or providing transient suppression in industrial and consumer electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Littelfuse datasheets for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the K2xx0 series. Verify that any alternative maintains the same DO-15 package and breakover voltage specifications.
