Thyristors - SCRs - Modules

Products within the Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) module family incorporate two or more SCR devices within a single device package, or a single SCR with one or more other devices, such as a rectifier diode. Commonly used for control of AC utility power, SCRs (also called thyristors) behave like a common rectifier diode, with an added ability to restrict current flow in the forward direction until a control pulse is applied.
