Description:
Powerex Dual SCR
POW-R-BLOKTM Modules are
designed for use in applications
requiring phase control and
isolated packaging. The modules
are isolated for easy mounting
with other components on
common heatsinks.
Features:
Isolated Mounting
Glass Passivated Chips
Metal Baseplate
Low Thermal Impedance
Applications:
Battery Supplies
Bridge Circuits
AC and DC Motor Control
Tap Changers
Lighting Control
Ordering Information:
