Introduction

The R0487 series of Distributed Gate thyristors have fast switching characteristics provided by a regenerative, interdigitated gate. They also exhibit low switching losses. T hey are therefore suitable f or medium current, medium frequency applications.

2.0 Extension of Voltage Grades This report is applicable to other and higher voltage grades when supply has been agreed by

Sales/Production.

3.0 Extension of Turn-off Time This Report is applicable to other tq/re-applied dv/dt combinations when supply has been agreed by

Sales/Production.

4.0 Repetitive dv/dt Higher dv/dt selections are available up to 1000V/µs on request.

5.0 De-rating Factor A blocking voltage de-rating factor of 0.13%/°C is applicable to this device for Tj below 25oC.

6.0 Rate of rise of on-state current The maxim um un-primed rate of rise of on-s tate current must not exceed 1500A/µs at any time dur ing

turn-on on a non-repetitive basis. For repetitive per formanc e, the on-state r ate of r ise of c urrent m ust not exceed 1000A/µs at any time during turn-on. Note that these values of rate of rise of current apply to the total device current including that from any local snubber network.

7.0 Square wave ratings These ratings are given for load component rate of rise of forward current of 100 and 500 A/µs.

8.0 Duty cycle lines The 100% duty cycle is represented on all the ratings by a straight line. Other duties can be included as

parallel to the first.

9.0 Maximum Operating Frequency The maximum operating frequenc y is set by the on-state duty, the time required for the thyristor to turn off

12.0 Reverse Recovery Loss

12.1 Determination by Measurement
From waveforms of recovery current obtained from a high frequency shunt (see Note 1, Page 5) and reverse voltage present during recovery, an instantaneous reverse recovery loss waveform must be constructed. Let the area under this waveform be E joules per pulse. A new heat sink temperature c an then be evaluated from:
where k = 0.227 (°C/W)/s E = Area under reverse loss waveform per pulse in joules (W.s.)
f = rated frequency Hz at the original heat sink temperature.
= d.c. thermal resistance (°C/W).
