CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
A thyristor (SCR) conducts current in one direction only, while a triac can conduct in both directions, making it suitable for AC switching. Both are used in solid state relays, but triacs are more common for AC loads.
Key parameters include rated voltage, rated current, gate trigger current, holding current, on-state voltage, critical rate of rise of off-state voltage and current, operating temperature range, isolation voltage, and thermal resistance. These must be matched to the load and application requirements.
The gate trigger current is the minimum gate current required to turn on the device. It influences the design of the control circuit, as the SSR must supply sufficient gate current to ensure reliable triggering.
Isolation voltage indicates the electrical isolation between the input and output circuits. It ensures safety and prevents interference, especially in industrial environments where high voltages are present.
