Thyristors - DIACs, SIDACs

The K0900E70AP is an electronic device that has capabilities ranging from high power rectifier to power regulators. This device falls under the category of thyristors, which are semi-conductor switches that are controlled by current or voltage. DIAC (diode for alternating current) and SIDAC (triggered diode for alternating current) both are special types of thyristors. This article will focus on the application field and working principle of this K0900E70AP.

DIAC is a three layer semiconductor device that has an anode and a cathode along with a gate terminal. Its application range mainly consists of controlling AC loads in power supplies, motor speed controllers, induction heating, welding applications and electronic ballasts. DIAC might be on its own or combined with other components to form gate turn-on devices like Triacs or may act as the combined switch in gate driven AC relay replacement. In general, DIAC is suitable for switching small or light current loads or can provide modulation or protection functions.

The working principle of the DIAC is very simple. When a fixed voltage is applied across its two terminals, it becomes turned-on and allows passage of current in both directions. The gate terminal, when activated with appropriate potential, allows current to pass through the device. This functionality is mainly used when the required current is more than what the DIAC can carry on its own.

SIDAC is another type of thyristor which is mainly used for switching AC power. It has a three-layer structure which contains two rectifying diodes joined in reverse parallel connection and anode terminal. When the current through the SIDAC reaches a threshold value, the SIDAC conducts current in both directions. This current threshold is dependent on the voltage applied to the device. SIDACs are mainly used for three-phase rectification, AC power switching, and DC control load switching. The advantage of SIDAC over other thyristor devices is its easily controllable current.

The K0900E70AP is a SIDAC device specifically used for AC power switching in motor speed controllers, induction heating, and welding applications. It has the potential to switch between 2A and 6A with a PIV (Peak Inverse Voltage) of 700V. The K0900E70AP can also be combined with other components to control and limit large current loads. The advantage of such a device can be seen in waveform control and also in high frequency applications.

The working principle of the K0900E70AP is similar to that of other SIDAC devices. When a voltage is applied to the device, SIDAC current begins to increase. Once the SIDAC current reaches a certain threshold, the device will begin to conduct current in both directions. The advantage of this type of current control is that it allows the user to control current flow. Therefore, it can be used in applications such as motor speed controllers, induction heating and welding applications.

The K0900E70AP is an ideal application for AC power switches, especially for large current loads. With its current threshold being adjustable, it is a perfect device for controlling current flow in applications such as motor speed controllers, induction heating, and welding applications. Its versatile nature makes it a suitable device for a wide range of applications.
