Thyristors are devices that use two junctions for conducting current, with the switching process triggered by two or more electrodes. Among the thyristors, the P4802ABTP is well-known for its robustness and reliable performance. This article will explain the application field and working principle of the P4802ABTP.

The P4802ABTP is a high-performance, low-capacity thyristor designed to withstand large surges of electric current. It is most commonly used in applications where extreme overcurrent protection is required, such as power systems, mobile devices, and communications systems. Since the P4802ABTP is equipped with a passivated junction, it is particularly suitable for outdoor applications and can withstand very high voltages up to 1200V.

When it comes to the working principle of the P4802ABTP, it is based on a two-junction semiconductor structure which allows current to flow only in one direction, thus providing a unidirectional current flow path. The two junctions consist of aBase, Emitter, and Collector. The Base is divided into three phases; the Emitter is connected to the Collector; and the Collector is connected to the ground. When an electric current is applied to the Base terminal, it is divided into three equal parts and each part is discharged to the Emitter and the Collector. The current that flows into the Emitter and the Collector then combines, causing a single, unidirectional current to flow through the thyristor, thus controlling the voltage and current.

The P4802ABTP also has reverse blocking capability, which means that when the current in the thyristor drops below a certain threshold, the current stops flowing and the thyristor switches off. This functionality, combined with the high surge capacity, makes the P4802ABTP ideal for extreme overvoltage protection in applications such as power systems, mobile devices, and communications systems.

In summary, the P4802ABTP is a robust and reliable low-capacity thyristor designed to withstand high surges of electrical current. It is most commonly used in applications where extreme overcurrent protection is necessary. Its working principle is based on two-junction semiconductor structure, allowing current to only flow in one direction. The P4802ABTP also has reverse blocking capability, which makes it one of the most reliable and versatile thyristors in the market today.
