T727064864DN

Thyristors - SCRs

The T727064864DN is a type of Thyristor, specifically a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR). A Thyristor device is an electronic component which is used to switch currents in electronic circuits. Mainly, it consists of four layers of semiconductor material. It is a unidirectional device, which means it allows the current to travel in one direction only. They are employed for power control in various applications.

The T727064864DN is an improved version of the original Thyristor, which is more reliable and has a higher current rating than earlier models. It is designed to perform in both normal and reverse blocking modes. It has a voltage rating of 800V peak, a current rating of 24A/600A pulses and a gate trigger voltage of 8-12V.

The T727064864DN is commonly used in industries like automotive, railway, robotics, etc. It is used to control the amount of current supplied to other components in the circuit. For instance, in the automotive industry, SCRs are used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) so that the car engine can run efficiently.

Application Field

T727064864DN can be used in almost any application where a reliable and efficient power control is needed. Examples include motor control systems, industrial automation, HVAC systems and solar power systems. SCRs can also be used in AC-DC power converters, such as transformers and rectifiers, to not only control power but also to provide protection from voltage spikes. In addition, T727064864DN can also be used in smart grid technology to control energy distribution.

Working Principle

SCRs work in accordance with the PN junction theory. In other words, when the PN junction is forward biased, a low voltage is normally applied to the gate, resulting in a low current flow through the component. However, when the voltage applied to the gate becomes higher than a certain threshold, the SCR breaks down and a high current flow is established through the component. This high current is then used to switch on or off an appliance. In addition, when the current flowing through the SCR exceeds the maximum current rating, the SCR will shut off and the current will be reduced accordingly.

The T727064864DN has a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions. Furthermore, its low gate trigger voltage ensures reliable operation and its high current rating makes it ideal for applications with large currents.

Conclusion

The T727064864DN is a versatile and reliable Thyristor - SCR, suitable for a wide range of applications. Its high current rating and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for use in harsh environments. Furthermore, its low gate trigger voltage ensures reliable operation in even the most demanding applications.
