MCNA75P2200TA

Overview

The MCNA75P2200TA is a silicon SCR module manufactured by IXYS, designed for high-power thyristor applications. It features a TO-240AA-3 screw-mount package and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Key electrical specifications include a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 2.2 kV and an on-state RMS current (It RMS) of 75 A. The device supports a non-repetitive on-state peak current of 500 A and maintains a maximum holding current of 100 mA. Gate triggering requirements are defined by a voltage of 1.4 V and a current of 70 mA.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and revision level against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to ensure compatibility with your system design. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors, as availability may vary. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed due to the sensitive nature of semiconductor components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2.2 kV blocking voltage and 75 A continuous current rating are required in a TO-240AA form factor. Consider the gate trigger characteristics and thermal management needs relative to your heat sink design. Compare against similar IXYS MCNA series parts if different current ratings or voltage levels better suit the application constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS MCNA series of bipolar thyristor modules. These modules are widely used in power electronics where high reliability and ruggedness are essential. The TO-240AA package is an industry-standard footprint, facilitating easy integration into existing designs that utilize similar thyristor modules from various manufacturers.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Potential alternatives may include other IXYS models within the MCNA family with adjusted current or voltage ratings, provided they maintain pinout and thermal interface compatibility.
