TYNx40 Series

STANDARD

40A SCRs

April 2002 - Ed: 4A

MAIN FEATURES:

DESCRIPTION

The TYNx40 series is suitable for applications

where in-rush current conditions are critical, such

as overvoltage crowbar protection circuits in

power supplies, in-rush current limiting circuits,

solid state relays (in back to back configuration),

welding equipment, high power motor control

circuits.

Using clip assembly technology, they provide a

superior performance in high surge current capa-

bilites.
