Thyristors - SCRs

C49E10, commonly referred to as an SCR, is a four-layer, three-terminal semiconductor device used for control of high voltage, high-current power circuits. It works by controlling the selective current flow through its three terminals; the anode, cathode and gate, by responding to a certain pulse. Generally speaking, the C49E10 is on when the positive voltage and negative voltages are applied to the anode and cathode respectively and a positive voltage is applied to the gate. When the voltage of the gate is greater than the peak voltage of the device, the C49E10 is off.

The application field of the C49E10 is quite diverse, as it can be employed in a variety of commercial and industrial uses. C49E10 SCRs have been used in a variety of applications, from aerospace to consumer electronics, motor controls, heating and lighting systems, power supplies, automobiles, and machine tools. It is also frequently used to control the starting and speed of AC motors, where it is superior to the traditional resistors and contactors.

The working principle of a C49E10 is relatively simple. The device has three terminals, the anode, the cathode and the gate. The anode and cathode terminals are the two electrical sources, depending on the particular application. The gate is the terminal through which the current is controlled. When a certain positive voltage is applied to the gate, current flow between the anode and cathode will be enabled, turning the device ON. Conversely, when the gate voltage is greater than the peak voltage of the device, current flow between the anode and cathode will be interrupted, thus turning the device OFF.

Technically, when a voltage is applied to the gate, the majority of free carriers (electrons and holes) will be attracted to the gate. With enough minority carriers, sufficient current can be generated for conduction between the anode and cathode. When the voltage of the gate exceeds the peak voltage of the device, majority carriers will not be generated, thus interrupting the current flow between the anode and cathode.

For greater control, several C49E10 devices can be connected in series and in parallel depending on the particular application requirements. When they are connected in series, the total forward voltage will increase, making it more difficult to turn on the devices. On the other hand, when connected in parallel, the gates of the devices will have common control, allowing them to function together. Furthermore, the parallel connection can be used to increase the current capability of the devices.

At the end of the day, the C49E10 is a chamber of control for diverse medium voltage, high current power circuits that are employed in a variety of commercial and industrial applications. It works by controlling the current flow between the anode to the cathode based on the gate voltage, thus providing both simplicity and synchronous control for its diverse uses.
