CCSTA14N40 www.DataSheet4U.com N-Type, ThinPakTM Preliminary Data Sheet Package Cathode contacts Gate contact Description This current controlled Solidtron (CCS) discharge switch is an ntype Thyristor in a high performance ThinPakTM package. The device gate is similar to that found on a traditional GTO Thyristor. The CCS features the high peak current capability and low Onstate voltage drop common to SCR thyristors combined with high di/dt capability. This semiconductor is intended to be a solid state replcement for spark or gas type devices commonly used in pulse power applications. The ThinPakTM Package is a perforated, metalized ceramic substrate attached to the silicon using 302oC solder. All exterior metal surfaces are tinned with 63pb/37sn solder providing the user with a circuit ready part. It's small size and low profile make it extremely attractive for high di/dt applications where stray series inductance must be kept to a minimum.
