Additional Details

The MCR100-6-TA is a sensitive gate silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) designed for triggering with very low gate currents. It offers a maximum repetitive peak off-state voltage of 600V, making it suitable for many AC line powered applications. The SCR is capable of handling a surge current up to 8A. The gate trigger current is typically less than 200 µA, allowing it to be driven directly by low-power logic circuits. The glass passivated junction provides excellent reliability and stability. The operating temperature range is from -40°C to +125°C. It is commonly used for phase control in light dimmers. The MCR100-6-TA comes in a TO-92 package.
