About this manual

This document provides technical data for the Motorola MCR310 Series, which includes Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs) and Reverse Blocking Triode Thyristors. These devices are designed for industrial and consumer applications such as temperature, light, and speed control, as well as process controls and MPU interfaces. The series features a center gate geometry for uniform current density and low trigger currents suitable for direct driving from integrated circuits.

The datasheet details maximum ratings, including peak repetitive forward and reverse blocking voltages ranging from 400 to 800 volts, and an on-state RMS current of 10 amps. It also lists electrical characteristics such as gate trigger current, holding current, and thermal resistance. Package dimensions for the TO-220AB case are provided in both inches and millimeters.
