Description
The standard 12 A SCR series is suitable to fit all
modes of control, found in applications such as
overvoltage crowbar protection, motor control
circuits in power tools and kitchen aids, inrush
current limiting circuits, capacitive discharge
ignition and voltage regulation circuits.
Available in through-hole or surface-mount
packages, they provide an optimized performance
in a limited space.
