NTE5461 thru NTE5468
Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR)
10 Amp
Description:
The NTE5461 through NTE5468 series silicon controlled rectifiers are designed primarily for half–
wave AC control applications such as motor controls, heating controls, and power supplies; or wher-
ever half–wave silicon gate–controlled, solid–state devices are needed. These devices are supplied
in a TO220 type package.
Features;
Glass Passivated Junctions and Center Gate Fire for Greater Parameter Uniformity and Stability
Small, Rugged, Thermowatt Construction for Low Thermal Resistance, High Heat Dissipation,
and Durability
Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts
