VS-VSKN26/10

SCRs - Modules Overview

The VS-VSKN26/10 is a thyristor/diode module from the AAP Gen 7 series, rated for 1000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 27 A average on-state current. It utilizes an exposed direct bonded copper substrate to achieve low thermal resistance of 0.76 °C/W per leg. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C and features a maximum non-repetitive surge current capability of 400 A at 50 Hz.

SCRs - Modules Feature Summary

• Utilizes exposed direct bonded copper substrate for superior thermal dissipation
• Designed with industrial level qualification and UL approval
• Features high surge current capability and simplified internal structure

SCRs - Modules Applications

• High voltage regulated power supplies
• Lighting circuits
• Temperature control circuits
• Motor speed control circuits
• UPS systems and battery chargers

SCRs - Modules Procurement Notes

Verify the specific circuit configuration code 'N' corresponds to the required SCR/diode common anodes topology. Confirm that the 1000 V rating aligns with the system's maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage requirements. Ensure mounting hardware complies with the specified torque values for the ADD-A-PAK package.

SCRs - Modules Selection Notes

Select this module when a combined thyristor and diode solution in a single package is required for high voltage applications. The 27 A rating suits moderate power levels where efficient heat sinking is available. Consider the 1000 V blocking capability for standard industrial AC line voltages.

SCRs - Modules Part Context

This component belongs to the VS-VSK26 series, which includes various thyristor and diode configurations such as T, H, L, N, U, and V types. All share the same electrical ratings but differ in internal circuit connections. The VS-VSKN26/10 specifically provides a common anode arrangement for its integrated SCR and diode elements.

SCRs - Modules Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Vishay modules from the VS-VSKT26, VS-VSKH26, or VS-VSKL26 series, provided the circuit topology matches the application needs. Cross-series replacement requires verifying identical voltage codes and current ratings.
