The IXYS CLAxxPD series phase leg modules contain a thyristor and series diode for use in half-wave AC power control and rectifier applications. The devices are housed in industry standard isolated base SOT227B packages.

• Isolated copper baseplate for good heat transfer
• Two-hole screw fixing
• M4 screw terminal connections
• 3000Vac isolation rating

Thyristors - IXYS

A Thyristor is a solid-state semiconductor device with four layers of alternating N and P-type material. They act as bistable switches, conducting when their gate receives a current trigger, and continue to conduct while they are forward biased. Thyristors are synonymous to Silicon-Controlled Rectifier (SCR).
Encapsulated modules with electrically isolated base plate. Suitable for applications such as battery chargers, welders and plating equipment, regulated power supplies and temperature and speed control circuits.
