The S0802NH is a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) from STMicroelectronics, designed for applications requiring direct control of AC power. It is encapsulated in the TO-92 package, which is well-suited for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. This SCR is capable of withstanding voltages up to 800V, making it an excellent choice for high-voltage applications.
Key Features
- Peak Repetitive Off-State Voltage (VDRM): 800V
- Average On-State Current (IT(AV)): 2A
- Gate Trigger Current (IGT): Maximum of 200 µA
- Non-Repetitive Surge Current (ITSM): Provides high surge capability
- Low Gate Trigger Voltage (VGT): Ensures easy triggering
- High Holding Current (IH): Prevents unwanted triggering from noise and voltage fluctuation
- TO-92 Package: Compact and suitable for through-hole PCB design
