IXYS Thyristor SCR 1600 V 19 A TO-247 Package Through Hole Mount CS20-16IO1

The IXYS CS20-16IO1 is a robust thyristor semiconductor device classified as an SCR, designed for industrial power control applications. It features a rated average on-state current of 19 A and can withstand repetitive peak reverse voltages of up to 1600 V. Encapsulated in a TO-247 package with through hole mount, this thyristor supports efficient heat dissipation and mechanically stable installation.

Built to operate reliably over a temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, the device is suitable for demanding environments such as battery chargers, welders, plating equipment, regulated power supplies, and various temperature and speed control circuits. It has a surge current rating of 215 A, allowing it to handle transient overloads without damage. The maximum gate trigger current of 65 mA ensures precise control activation, while the 3-pin configuration facilitates integration into existing systems.

The peak on-state voltage of 2.1 V minimizes conduction losses, enhancing overall efficiency. Although the device does not comply with automotive standards, its sturdy design is well-suited for industrial and commercial applications where reliable phase control is required.

The Thyristor is a solid-state switch with four alternating layers of N and P-type materials, acting as a bistable on-off control device. It remains conducting when forward biased after a gate trigger signal, providing efficient power regulation. The maximum holding current of 100 mA ensures secure latching during operation.

This product is ideal for engineers and designers needing a reliable and efficient SCR for power electronic systems. Its standardized TO-247 package facilitates ease of replacement and mounting across multiple designs.

Rated repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1600 V provides excellent voltage tolerance. High surge current rating of 215 A supports transient surge handling. Operating temperature range ensures durability under variable thermal conditions.
