Based on an unidirectional structure,
SCRs (or Silicon Controlled Rectifers) are used
as switching devices in pulse mode or half-wave bridge circuits.
Sensitive SCRs are easy to drive, thanks to their
very low gate current triggering. They are suitable for low power
applications where low consumption is mandatory.
Standard SCRs are ideal for general purpose switching
applications like battery voltage regulation, crowbar protection
in power supplies, motor control, ...
Available in a large range of though-hole and surface mount packages,
they fit a large number of applications.
