TN12, TS12 and TYNx12 Series
SENSITIVE & STANDARD 12A SCRs
September 2000 - Ed: 3
MAIN FEATURES:
DESCRIPTION
Available either in sensitive (TS12) or standard
(TYN, TN12...) gate triggering levels, the 12A SCR
series is suitable to fit all modes of control found in
applications such as overvoltage crowbar
protection, motor control circuits in power tools
and kitchen aids, in-rush current limiting circuits,
capacitive discharge ignition, voltage regulation
circuits...
Available in though-hole or surface-mount
packages, they provide an optimized performance
in a limited space area.
