Vishay Thyristor SCR 1200 V Repetitive Peak Reverse Voltage 20 A Rated Average On-State Current VS-30TPS12-M3

Vishay VS-30TPS12-M3 Thyristor SCR is a high-performance discrete semiconductor device designed for phase control applications requiring robust switching characteristics. It offers a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 1200 V and a rated average on-state current of 20 A, making it suitable for demanding industrial and electronic circuits.

Encapsulated in a TO-247 package, the device supports through-hole mounting facilitating ease of integration into various assemblies. Its surge current rating of 300 A enables it to withstand transient overloads common in welding equipment, battery chargers, and regulated power supplies. The maximum gate trigger current is 45 mA with a trigger voltage of 2 V, providing reliable switching performance.

Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to 125°C ensure stable operation in harsh environments. The device's 3-pin configuration is optimized for efficient conduction with a low peak on-state voltage of 1.3 V, enhancing energy efficiency. The maximum holding current of 100 mA maintains the conduction state post trigger. Its repetitive peak off-state current of 0.5 mA minimizes leakage current when the device is off.
