The MCR12DCM/CN is a reverse blocking thyristor produced by Motorola. It has the characteristics of small size, low cost, high reliability and uniformity, and is suitable for industrial and consumer applications.
This document provides technical data for the Motorola MCR12DCM and MCR12DCN Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs). These devices are designed for high-volume, low-cost industrial and consumer applications, including motor control and process control. The datasheet covers maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, and dynamic parameters for both the surface mount (Case 369A) and miniature plastic (Case 369) package styles.
| Peak Repetitive Off-State Voltage | 600 Volts (MCR12DCM) |
|---|---|
| Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage | 800 Volts (MCR12DCN) |
| On-State RMS Current | 12 Amps |
| Operating Junction Temperature Range | -40 to 125 °C |
| Peak Gate Current | 2.0 Amps |
The devices are available in a Surface Mount Lead Form (Case 369A) and a Miniature Plastic Package with Straight Leads (Case 369).
The maximum average gate power is 0.5 Watts for a pulse width of 8.3 msec at a case temperature of 90°C.
