40EPS12 SCR 1200V 40A series of silicon-controlled rectifiers specifically designed for medium power switching and phase control applications.. The highest repeating peak reverse voltage (VRRM) for these devices is 1200V, with a maximum average on-state current (IT(AV)) of 35A. The maximum DC gate current required to trigger (IGT) is only 150mA. The 40EPS12 is a versatile AC power rectification solution..
A four-layer solid-state current-controlling device known as a silicon-controlled rectifier or semiconductor-controlled rectifier. SCRs are unidirectional, meaning they can only carry current in one direction. TRIACs, on the other hand, are bidirectional (i.e. charge carriers can flow through them in either direction). TRIACs may be activated by either a positive or negative current running through the gate electrode, unlike SCRs, which are normally triggered by a positive current flowing into the gate.
