  • Fundamental Characteristics of Thyristors
    The thyristor family of semiconductors consists of several very useful devices. The most widely used of this family are silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs), triacs, sidacs, and diacs. In many applications these devices perform key functions and are real assets in meeting environmental, speed
  • Gating, Latching, and Holding of SCRs and Triacs
    Gating, latching, and holding currents of thyristors are some of the most important parameters. These parameters and their interrelationship determine whether the SCRs and triacs will function properly in various circuit applications. This application note describes how the SCR and triac parameters
  • Teccor Thyristors used as AC Static Switches and Relays
    Since the SCR and the triac are bistable devices, one of their broad areas of application is in the realm of signal and power switching. This application note describes circuits in which these thyristors are used to perform simple switching functions of a general type that might also be performed
  • Teccor Thyristors - Miscellaneous Design Tips and Facts (.pdf)
    This application note presents design tips and facts on the following topics: * Relationship of IAV, IRMS, and IPK * dv/dt Definitions * Examples of gate terminations * Curves for Average Current at Various Conduction Angles * Double-exponential Impulse Waveform * Failure Modes of Thyristor
