MCR72-3 Datasheet, PDF (1/6 Pages) ON Semiconductor – SENSITIVE GATE SILICON CONTROLLED RECTIFIERS
MCR72-3, MCR72-6,
MCR72-8
Sensitive Gate Silicon
Controlled Rectifiers
Reverse Blocking Thyristors
Designed for industrial and consumer applications such as
temperature, light and speed control; process and remote controls;
warning systems; capacitive discharge circuits and MPU interface.
Features
• Center Gate Geometry for Uniform Current Density
• All Diffused and Glass-Passivated Junctions for Parameter
Uniformity and Stability
• Small, Rugged Thermowatt Construction for Low Thermal
Resistance, High Heat Dissipation and Durability
• Low Trigger Currents, 200 mA Maximum for Direct Driving from
Integrated Circuits
• These are Pb−Free Devices*

Stresses exceeding those listed in the Maximum Ratings table may damage the
device. If any of these limits are exceeded, device functionality should not be
assumed, damage may occur and reliability may be affected.
1. VDRM and VRRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Ratings
apply for zero or negative gate voltage; however, positive gate voltage shall
not be applied concurrent with negative potential on the anode. Blocking
voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the
voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
