TPA120

THYRISTOR 120V 150A DO204AC

Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics

Categories: Thyristors

Quality Control: Learn More

STMicroelectronics TPA120 TRISIL™ thyristor offers robust surge protection. This component features a 120V off-state voltage and a 150A peak pulse current rating (8/20µs), with a 50A rating for 10/1000µs transients. The TPA120 has a breakover voltage of 160V and a hold current of 150mA. Designed for through-hole mounting, it is supplied in a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial package, typically available in Tape & Box packaging. Its low capacitance of 30pF makes it suitable for applications requiring minimal signal distortion. This thyristor is utilized in various industries, including telecommunications and industrial equipment, for safeguarding sensitive circuitry against voltage transients.
