MCNA55P2200TA

SCRs - Modules Overview

The MCNA55P2200TA is a silicon SCR module manufactured by IXYS, designed for high-voltage power control applications. It features a TO-240AA-3 screw-mount package and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Key electrical parameters include a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 2200 V and an RMS on-state current (IT RMS) of 55 A. The device exhibits a maximum on-state voltage of 1.6 V and a gate trigger voltage (VGT) of 1.5 V. Leakage current at VDRM is specified at 100 µA, with a holding current maximum of 100 mA.

SCRs - Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TA' against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm packaging details and compliance status. Ensure the procurement channel provides original manufacturer documentation to validate authenticity. Cross-reference the part number with official IXYS catalogs to avoid confusion with similar series components that may have different electrical characteristics or pin configurations.

SCRs - Modules Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2200 V rating is required for line-frequency thyristor applications. The 55 A RMS current capacity suits moderate-power industrial loads. Consider the TO-240AA-3 package constraints for heatsinking and mounting space. Compare against alternative IXYS models like the MCNA40P2200TA if lower current ratings are acceptable for cost optimization.

SCRs - Modules Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS MCNA series of single-phase thyristor modules. These modules utilize planar passivated chips and direct copper bond technology on aluminum oxide substrates. The series is engineered for reliability in line-frequency applications, offering a standardized form factor compatible with existing industry designs.

SCRs - Modules Replacement Considerations

The MCNA40P2200TA serves as a verified substitute within the same series, offering identical voltage ratings but a lower 40 A RMS current capacity. Verify that the application load does not exceed the substitute's current limits before implementation.
