Packaged in ISOTOPmodules, the MDS Series is
based on the half-bridge SCR-diode configuration.
They are suitable for high power applications,
using phase controlled bridges, such as soft-start
circuits,weldingequipment,motorspeed
controller. The compactness of the ISOTOP
package allows high power density and optimized
power bus connections. Than ks t o their internal
ceramic pad, they provide high voltage i nsulation
(2500V RMS), complying with UL standards (File
ref: E81734).
