MCR218-6FP / 8FP / 10FP are reverse blocking thyristors designed primarily for half-wave ac control applications, such as motor controls, heating controls and power supply crowbar circuits.
The Motorola MCR218FP Series consists of reverse blocking thyristors (SCRs) designed primarily for half-wave AC control applications, such as motor controls, heating controls, and power supply crowbar circuits. These devices feature glass passivated junctions with center gate fire for greater parameter uniformity and stability.
