FEATURES
VERY HIGH COMMUTATION : > 42.5 A/ms
(400Hz)
INSULATING VOLTAGE = 2500V
(RMS)
(UL RECOGNIZED : E81734)
dV/dt : 500 V/µs min
DESCRIPTION
The TXDV 412 ---> 812 use a high performance
passivated glass alternistor technology. Featuring
very high commutation levels and high surge cur-
rent capability, this family is well adapted to power
control on inductive load (motor, transformer...)
