Littelfuse SVxx12-25xx High Junction Temperature SCRs feature a low gate current trigger level of 6mA or 10mA maximum at approximately 1.5V. The SVxx12-25xx SCRs operate at -40°C to +150°C junction temperature range and 600V voltage rating. These SCRs are used in applications such as phase control in heating, motor speed controls, converters/rectifiers, inrush current control, and capacitive discharge ignitions.
Electrical Vehicle DC Fast Chargers
DC charging stations are designed to convert the electrical grid’s AC power into DC power that can then be fed directly into a vehicle’s battery system for fast charging – in 30 minutes or less. Because the conversion from AC to DC power is being done in the charging station, these units can provide higher levels of power (50kW to 350kW and beyond) to the vehicle compared to AC charging stations. Working with tens to hundreds of kilowatts of power, efficient conversion, reliability of the system, and user safety are critical.
