Semikron Danfoss Dual Thyristor Module 1600 V, 18 A, 100 mA, 370 A, 2.4 V SK 100 KQ 16

Semikron Danfoss SK 100 KQ 16 is a dual thyristor module incorporating Silicon-Controlled Rectifiers (SCR) designed for industrial and electronic power management applications. Rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1600 V and an average on-state current of 18 A, this module delivers reliable switching control in demanding environments.

The device supports a surge current rating of up to 370 A, ensuring tolerance against transient current spikes typically encountered in battery chargers, welders, plating equipment, regulated power supplies, and temperature or speed control circuits. The maximum operating temperature of 130°C and minimum of -40°C provide a wide operational range suitable for harsh industrial conditions.

This module is built with a B-2 package type and features a screw mount for secure placement. It includes an electrically isolated base plate, contributing to enhanced safety and thermal management. The maximum gate trigger current is 100 mA, with a corresponding maximum gate trigger voltage of 3 V, allowing precise and efficient triggering control.

The SK 100 KQ 16 module uses three pins and is constructed to meet high standards without automotive certifications, emphasizing its use in general industrial electronics rather than automotive applications.

This dual thyristor is specifically engineered for robust power switching applications in industrial and laboratory settings. Its isolation and secure mounting support integration into sophisticated electronic assemblies requiring efficient thermal and electrical performance.

Typical uses include power control in welding machines, battery chargers, and motor speed regulation systems, highlighting its versatility.

The module is manufactured in Italy, ensuring compliance with stringent European semiconductor production standards. It is recognized as a new product with high reliability and durability expected from Semikron Danfoss components.
