ST high-temperature silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) feature low power losses, allowing higher power density at 150°C for circuits to draw more current or reduce heatsink in inrush current limiters, converters, and SSRs. State-of-the-art ST technology ensures a very tight trade-off between maximizing transient immunity and minimizing gate trigger current. High-temperature thyristors are part of the STPOWER family, providing higher performance for a wide range of applications.
