IXYS Dual Thyristor Module 1600 V, 190 A Panel Mount SCR MCC162-16IO1

The IXYS MCC162-16IO1 Dual Thyristor Module is an advanced silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) device, housed in a panel mount Y4-M6 package, engineered for demanding power control tasks. Designed for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1600 V and a surge current capability up to 6.4 kA, it effectively handles high voltage and transient surges, making it suitable for industrial power electronics applications.

Its average on-state current rating of 190 A ensures reliable continuous conduction performance, while a peak on-state voltage of 1.25 V contributes to efficiency by reducing power losses during operation. The module’s gate trigger requirements include a maximum current of 150 mA and voltage of 2.5 V, providing precise control over switching behavior.

Operating comfortably across a temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, this thyristor module thrives in harsh operating environments. The device includes seven connection pins for integration into complex circuits and incorporates a maximum holding current of 200 mA to maintain stable conduction.

This module is primarily intended for applications including battery chargers, welding equipment, regulated power supplies, and temperature or speed control circuits. It features an encapsulated design with an electrically isolated base plate, facilitating safer and easier mounting on panels.
