The new K2xx0yHU is a higher energy SIDAC switch for gas ignition applications requiring higher current pulse current especially at low repetition rate. It is offered in a DO-15 leaded package. Voltage activation of this solid state switch is accomplished with peak voltage level of 210 to 230Volts. The SIDAC is a silicon bilateral voltage triggered Thyristor switch that switches on through a negative resistance region to a low on-state voltage. Conduction will continue until current is interrupted or lowered below minimum holding current of the device.
