Thyristors are semi-conductors which are semi-on/off switches. Typically embedded in electronic circuits, thyristors are used to control the flow of electricity and are used in a myriad of applications across many areas. The P1800EBRP2 is a special type of thyristor which is designed and manufactured to be suitable for gate turn-off (GTO) and circuit breakers. Its unique features make it very desirable for these specific applications which require specialized thyristors.

The P1800EBRP2 comes as a three-phase bridge type thyristor. It is designed with a ceramic base and epoxy resin to ensure it is very durable and reliable in a wide range of operating conditions. Thanks to its special design, it also has very low thermal losses when operating under extreme conditions and has a very high surge withstand capability. The P1800EBRP2 is a great choice for electromechanical applications due to its high thermal cycling capability and the ability to handle high current rates.

The main application field for the P1800EBRP2 is in gate turn-off applications. These applications mainly include controlling and switching barium ferrite GTO thyristors. This in use allows for higher current ratings compared to other thyristor technologies. Additionally, the P1800EBRP2 includes a dual gate drive which comes with two gate drive pins with the ability to independently control the gate turn-off thyristors.

The P1800EBRP2 has a very simple working principle. Usually operating in pairs, the two thyristors are connected in opposition in the circuit and used as a control switch. When the current flows through these thyristors, one will be turn on and the other will be turn off. This feature is called “symmetric bi-directional commutation”. This means that the P1800EBRP2 can effectively control the power flow in any direction with a simple control signal.

Another feature of the P1800EBRP2 is that it has a very fast turn-off speed. The P1800EBRP2 is able to turn off at 10 microseconds, significantly faster than some other technologies. Additionally, the gate drive circuits ensures that the output current remains uninterrupted for a long time. The P1800EBRP2 is also able to recycle many times, allowing for a high level of reliability and cost-effectiveness.

The P1800EBRP2 is an exceptional thyristor with many features and capabilities that make it very suitable for gate turn-off applications. Its high surge withstand capability, fast turn-off speed, and dual gate drive make it very efficient and reliable. Additionally, its range of features provide a wide range of applications which make it ideal for circuit breakers and many other electromechanical applications.
