TVB170NSC-L belongs to a type of thyristors, also known as silicon controlled rectifier (SCR). It features fast recovery and strong suppressing ability on overvoltage and surge, making it highly applicable in controlling and regulating in various fields. This article will provide a comprehensive introduction to its applicability and working principle.

Application Field

TVB170NSC-L thyristor is generally used to control AC power. It is quite suitable for automotive, locomotive, consumer electronics, industrial control, home appliance, and aerospace applications. It is can also be used for surge suppressor, AC or DC motor speed controllers, protective circuits to protect devices from surge and other overvoltage issues, and trigger circuits for SCR-DBD mixture switches, etc.

In addition to being integrated into products as a whole, it is also suitable for PCB surface mounting. Its versatility allows it to be used as an independent component and integrated into larger power control systems.

Working Principle

The TVB170NSC-L thyristor is based on a thyristor device that is capable of controlling unidirectional current flow with voltage, temperature and humidity control. In terms of operation, it is composed of two p-type semiconductor regions P1 and P2, and two n-type semiconductor regions N1 and N2. P1 and P2 are connected in a push-pull mode and control the current direction of the thyristor device. The p-type regions are connected to the gate terminal of the thyristor, and the n-type regions are connected to the anode terminal.

The thyristor works by channeling current between the anode terminal and the gate terminal. When the current between the gate and anode terminals exceeds a certain threshold, a "static breakdown" will occur, causing current to flow between the gate and anode terminals. Once the gate current is cut off, the current between the gate and anode terminals will switch off, and the thyristor will be turned off. In this way, the TVB170NSC-L thyristor can effectively control the output current to complete the thyristor device operation.

Conclusion

The TVB170NSC-L thyristor has a wide variety of applications, and its working principle is based on the use of a thyristor device which can control unidirectional current flow. This makes it suitable for a range of automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial control applications. It can also be used for surge protection and in motor speed controller circuits. Its fast response and strong surge suppression abilities make it a popular choice in a variety of applications.
