VS-40TPS08A-M3 is listed in the Scrs range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. Its product description is SCR 800V 55A TO247AC. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The VS-40TPS08A-M3 is a high voltage phase control silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) from Vishay Semiconductors. It features an average on-state current of 35 A and a maximum repetitive peak off-state voltage of 800 V. The device utilizes glass passivation technology for reliable operation up to a junction temperature of 125 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum peak on-state voltage of 1.85 V, a maximum gate trigger current of 40 mA, and a non-repetitive surge current rating of 600 A. It is housed in a TO-247AC 3L package.
Verify the specific part number suffix against official documentation to confirm low gate trigger current specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS and lead-free requirements as indicated by the M3 designation. Confirm that the application environment remains within the specified thermal and electrical limits defined in the datasheet.
Select this component when a high voltage SCR with low gate drive requirements is needed for phase control. The low IGT variant simplifies driver circuit design compared to standard versions. Consider the thermal resistance and case temperature ratings for proper heatsinking in continuous conduction modes.
This device belongs to the VS-40TPS...-M3 series of thyristors designed for high voltage phase control. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings such as 800 V and 1200 V. The 'A' suffix denotes a low gate trigger current selection, distinguishing it from standard IGT parts within the same physical package family.
