Detailed Specs:

The 2N6386 typically features a repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM) and a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) in the range of 400V to 800V, depending on the specific variant. The on-state RMS current (IT(RMS)) can range from 6.3A to 10A. The gate trigger current (IGT) is typically around 200 μA. These parameters allow the SCR to effectively manage and control AC power in a variety of demanding applications. Its robust design ensures reliable operation under high surge conditions, making it suitable for use in industrial and commercial settings. The glass passivated junction enhances the device's stability and longevity.
