S6010VTP

Overview

The S6010VTP is a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) manufactured by Littelfuse, belonging to the Sxx10xSx series. It features a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 600 V and an RMS on-state current (It RMS) of 10 A. The device has a maximum gate trigger current (Igt) of 500 uA and a gate trigger voltage (Vgt) of 800 mV. Forward voltage (Vf) is 1.6 V, with a holding current (Ih) max of 8 mA. Non-repetitive peak on-state current is 100 A. It operates between -40 C and +110 C in a TO-251 package.

Feature Summary

• Sensitive gate design enabling triggering with microampere currents from sense coils or microprocessors
• High surge current capability for robust phase control applications
• Isolated junction construction for secure mounting

Applications

• Phase control circuits
• Heating controls
• Motor speed controls

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Littelfuse documentation to confirm pinout and electrical tolerances. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid traceability data. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest environmental declaration before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a sensitive gate SCR is required for low-power triggering sources. Verify that the 600 V rating meets the circuit's peak voltage requirements. Ensure the TO-251 package fits the available PCB space and thermal management strategy for 10 A continuous operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Teccor Sensitive SCR Devices family, designed for general switching and phase control. It complements standard SCRs by offering easier triggering characteristics suitable for modern digital control interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Check Littelfuse datasheets for direct replacements within the S6010VS3TP or S6010DS2RP families if pin compatibility is critical. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same 10 A RMS current and 600 V voltage ratings.
