STMicroelectronics Thyristor SCR 600 V 5 A 0.2 mA 73 A Sensitive Gate TO-220 TS820-600T

STMicroelectronics TS820-600T is a Sensitive Gate Thyristor manufactured in TO-220 package type, rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and a rated average on-state current of 5 A. It features a low gate trigger current of 0.2 mA and a surge current rating up to 73 A, making it ideal for applications with limited gate triggering current availability such as ground fault circuit interrupters and residual current circuit breakers.

This SCR device operates reliably in harsh industrial environments with a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 125°C and a maximum gate trigger voltage of 0.8 V. The maximum holding current of the device is 5 mA and it has a peak on-state voltage of 1.6 V, ensuring efficient power control and switching.

The TO-220 through-hole package facilitates easy mounting and soldering onto printed circuit boards in industrial and electronic component assemblies. The device is tailored for power switching and control in industrial electronics, power supplies, and automation systems.

Key parameters such as repetitive peak off-state current of 5 μA, 3-pin configuration, and absence of automotive certification highlight its suitability for general industrial use rather than automotive applications.

Rated average on-state current of 5 A ensures reliable conduction capacity. Repetitive peak reverse voltage rating is 600 V for robust voltage handling. Surge current capacity of 73 A to withstand transient overloads. Sensitive gate thyristor designed for low triggering gate currents of 0.2 mA.
