Rated Parameters

The T72H023574DN has a rated blocking voltage of 1400V and a maximum current rating of 4A. It has a gate triggering voltage of 5V and is rated for operation up to 175°C. The device is rated for a junction temperature of 175°C and a non-repetitive peak peak current of 8A.

Device Construction

The T72H023574DN is constructed with three layers of gallium arsenide and doped silicon. The outer two layers are formed into a PN junction to make up the components two electrodes - the anode and cathode. The inner layer is the gate contact, which is used to trigger the SCR.

Operation Principle

The T72H023574DN is a two-terminal device. The anode is the positive terminal and the cathode is the negative terminal. When no voltage is applied to the SCR, its internal resistance is high, preventing current from flowing from the anode to the cathode. When a voltage is applied to the gate contact of the device, it causes the internal resistance to decrease, allowing current to flow between the anode and cathode. This allows the device to act as a switch and to control power in applications.
