TS420 Series

SENSITIVE

4A SCRs

September 2000 - Ed: 3

MAIN FEATURES:

DESCRIPTION

Thanks to highly sensitive triggering levels, the

TS420 series is suitable for all applications where

the available gate current is limited, such as motor

control for hand tools, kitchen aids, overvoltage

crowbar protection for low power supplies, ...

Available

in

through-hole

or

surface-mount

packages, they provide an optimized performance

in a limited space area.
