Thyristors are semiconductor devices that act as electronic switches and are used to control the flow of electricity in circuits. Thyristors are divided into two categories based on their operating principles: SCRs (silicon-controlled rectifiers) and TRIACs (triode AC switches). The T5070640B4AQ is an SCR (silicon-controlled rectifier).

SCRs are unilateral, high-frequency switches. This means they can conduct current in one direction only (unidirectional), and they can switch on and off at high frequency (typically up to several kilohertz). The T5070640B4AQ is a 4-terminal SCR which means it has four pins for electrical connections. The pins are labeled Anode, Cathode, Gate, and Auxiliary Cathode. When in the off-state (i.e., when not conducting electricity) the SCR is disconnected from the circuit and has zero voltage across its terminals.

The SCR can be triggered into the on-state (i.e., switched on) by a positive voltage (positive gate current) applied to its gate terminal. This positive voltage creates an electron current between the gate and cathode terminals, which causes a so-called “avalanche breakdown” in the SCR’s junction. This avalanche breakdown causes a large current flow (Irr) between the anode and cathode terminals. This large current is why SCRs are often referred to as “power semiconductor devices” (they can control large currents).

Once the SCR is triggered into the on-state, it will remain on until the current passing through it falls below the holding current Ih (or the anode terminal is reverse biased). This “latching” effect means that when triggered, the SCR will remain on until the power is switched off or the latching current falls below Ih. This is why SCRs are often used as power switches (they latch onto the current and don’t let it go).

The T5070640B4AQ is an SCR designed for applications in high-power switching and motor control. It can handle up to 70A of peak current, with a maximum forward blocking voltage of 360V. It is also designed to be used in circuits where high dv/dt is present (such as in high-speed motor control circuits). Its small size and low cost make it well suited for use in many applications.

In summary, the T5070640B4AQ is an SCR (silicon-controlled rectifier) designed for high-power switching and motor control applications. It has four terminals: Anode, Cathode, Gate, and Auxiliary Cathode, and can handle up to 70A of peak current. It can be switched on by a positive voltage applied to its gate terminal, and will remain in the on-state until the current passing through it falls below a certain value (the holding current Ih). Its small size and low cost make it well suited for a variety of applications.
