The IXYS WESTCODE 603638 is a disc-shaped thyristor designed for phase control applications. Thyristors, also known as Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs), are like electronic switches that regulate current flow. The 603638 specifically deals with alternating current (AC).
How Does the IXYS WESTCODE 603638, Thyristors Disc, Thyristor Phase Control Function?
By adjusting the timing of its turn-on within the AC cycle, the 603638 controls the average power delivered to a load. This allows for dimming lights, maintaining motor speeds, or regulating heating elements.
Unique Benefits Include
- Offers a compact design for space-saving integration.
- Enables accurate regulation of power output.
- Can handle significant currents for industrial applications.
