Thyristor Switches
SC Series
-
SC Series Thyristor Switches are used in systems which contain fastswitching inductive loads. The capacitors, which will be used to provide capacitive power to the system, can be switched on and off with a switching time shorter than 20 ms (1 period) by using SC Series Static Contactors, thereby providing a more effective compensation for fast-switching loads such as tack welding machines, cranes and arc furnaces.

Power ICs - Smart Load Switches
-
Combining multiple functions in a single IC, Vishay smart load switches eliminate the need for external circuitry . A simplified GPIO interface allows for power distribution and sequencing of multiple sub-systems. Slew-rate-control devices provide a controlled supply ramp to reduce inrush current, while fault protection and isolation switches increase robustness with reverse current, overtemperature, current limiting, and short circuit protection features. The ICs offer quick output discharge and small footprints, while their integrated design saves PCB space compared to discrete solutions, reduces BOM counts, and lowers manufacturing costs.
