A thyristor is a high-power solid-state semiconductor device having four layers of alternately utilised P- and N-type materials. It only functions as a bistable switch (or a latch), conducting once the gate receives a current trigger and continuing to conduct until the device’s voltage is reverse biassed or the voltage is withdrawn (by some other means).
There are two different designs with distinct conducting state induction mechanisms. A modest current on the Gate lead of a three-lead thyristor regulates the larger current of the Anode to Cathode circuit.
A SCR is another name for thyristor products (Silicon Controlled Rectifiers). Only one direction of current may be controlled and rectified using an SCR module. The SCR module has an on/off switch like a mechanical switch.
The Global Discrete Thyristor Modules Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
ON Semiconductor Introduces New Series of Thyristor Surge Protection Devices to Offer Overvoltage Protection with Minimal Signal Distortion
The NP-MC series advantages high-speed telecom equipment designers in terms of performance, cost, and space savings.
The NP-MC series is a new family of ultra-low capacitance thyristor surge protection devices (TSPDs) from On-Semiconductor, a top global supplier of high performance, energy-efficient silicon solutions.
These devices protect delicate electronic equipment from transient overvoltage conditions.The NP-MC devices offer protection with little signal distortion in high-speed xDSL, T1/E1, and other broadband data transmission equipment because they have lower capacitance values than competing products currently on the market.
The NP-MC transient surge protection series, according to ON Semiconductor’s general manager of the Protection and Control Division, “is a breakthrough product that not only enables designers to achieve compliance with strict industry standards, but also remarkably low capacitance to minimise troublesome distortion that frequently afflicts the latest high-speed telecom circuits.”
