Scrs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the packaging format. The 'TRL' suffix indicates a tape and reel configuration with left orientation, while other suffixes may denote tube packaging or different orientations. Ensure the component matches the required voltage rating code, where '12' corresponds to 1200 V. Confirm lead-free status and RoHS compliance through the datasheet revision history.

Scrs Selection Notes

Select this component based on the required blocking voltage and thermal management constraints. The 1200 V rating suits high-voltage AC line applications. Evaluate the thermal resistance from junction to case (1.3 °C/W) and ambient conditions to determine appropriate heatsinking. Consider the gate trigger requirements and dI/dt ratings for driver circuit compatibility. Verify that the operating junction temperature remains within the specified -40 °C to 125 °C range under all load conditions.

Scrs FAQ

What is the maximum non-repetitive surge current rating?

The maximum peak, one-cycle, non-repetitive surge current (ITSM) is 200 A when no voltage is reapplied, and 170 A when rated VRRM is applied following the surge.

How does the gate trigger current vary with temperature?

The maximum required DC gate current to trigger (IGT) decreases as temperature increases: it is 90 mA at -10 °C, 60 mA at 25 °C, and 35 mA at 125 °C.

What is the typical turn-off time for this SCR?

The typical turn-off time (tq) is 110 µs at a junction temperature of 125 °C.
