Description/ Features
The 70TPS...
SAFE
IR
series of silicon controlled
rectifiers are specifically designed for high and
medium power switching and phase control appli-
cations.
Typical applications are in input rectification (soft
start) or AC-Switches or high current crow-bar as
well as others phase-control circuits.
These products are designed to be used with
International Rectifier input diodes, switches and
output rectifiers which are available in identical
package outlines.
