Overview
The Littelfuse MCR12MG is a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) rated for a peak repetitive off-state voltage of 600 V. It supports an on-state RMS current of 12 A at a case temperature of 80°C and handles a peak non-repetitive surge current of 100 A. The device features sensitive gate characteristics with a maximum gate trigger current of 20 mA and a holding current up to 40 mA. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and utilizes a TO-220AB package.
Feature Summary
- Sensitive gate design allows direct interfacing with microprocessors
- Glass passivated junctions ensure reliability and uniformity
- High immunity to dv/dt with a minimum rating of 100 V/µsec at 125°C
Applications
- Half-wave AC control applications
- Motor controls
- Heating controls
- Power supplies
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific part number against the manufacturer's datasheet to confirm the 600V blocking voltage variant. Ensure the TO-220AB package style matches the target PCB layout requirements. Confirm lead-free compliance status if RoHS regulations apply to the end product assembly process.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a 600V SCR is required for half-wave rectification or AC switching tasks. The 12A RMS rating suits moderate power loads, while the sensitive gate simplifies drive circuitry. Verify thermal management capabilities for the TO-220AB package under continuous operating conditions.
Part Context
This device belongs to the MCR12DG/MCR12MG/MCR12NG family of silicon-controlled rectifiers from Littelfuse. These components are designed for robust performance in industrial and consumer electronics, offering a balance of high surge capability and reliable switching characteristics in a standard through-hole package.
Replacement Considerations
MCR12DG (400V), MCR12NG (800V).
