GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Passivated, sensitive gate thyristor in
a plastic envelope, suitable for
surface mounting, intended for use in
general purpose switching and
phase control applications. These
devices are intended to be interfaced
directly to microcontrollers, logic
integrated circuits and other low
power gate trigger circuits.
