The TO-218X features large eyelet terminals for ease of soldering heavy gauge hook-up wire. All the isolated packages have a standard isolation voltage rating of 2500VRMS. Teccor offers bidirectional alternistors with current ratings from 6 to 40 amperes with voltages from 200 to 800 volts as part of Teccor's broad line of thyristors. Teccor's alternistor has been specifically designed for applications which are required to switch highly inductive loads. To accomplish this, a special chip has been designed which effectively offers the same performance as two thyristors (SCRs) wired inverse parallel (back-to-back); hence, the alternistor has better turn-off behavior than a standard triac. An alternistor may be triggered from a blocking to conduction state for either polarity of applied AC voltage with operating modes in Quadrants I, II, and III. Variations of devices covered in this data sheet are available for custom design applications. Please consult factory for further information. This new chip construction provides two electrically separate SCR structures, providing enhanced dv/dt characteristics while retaining the advantages of a single chip device. Features * * * * * All alternistors have glass-passivated junctions to ensure long term reliability and parameter stability. Teccor's glass offers a reliable barrier against junction contamination. These alternistors are offered in four basic package configurations: TO-218X, TO-218AC, FastPak, and TO-220AB. Teccor's TO-218X package has been designed for heavy, steady power- Teccor Electronics, Inc.
