**Thyristors** 40 Amp High Temperature Alternistor Triacs 

~~[ISAM~~ ~~**RoHS**~~ 

## QJxx40xx Series 

**Description** The 40 Amp bi-directional solid state switch series is designed for AC switching and phase control applications ~~Po~~ such as motor speed, temperature modulation controls, lighting controls, and static switching relays. Alternistor type components only operate in quadrants I, II, & III and are used in circuits requiring high dv/dt capability. 

Standard type devices operate in quadrants I,II,III & IV.

Careful selection of the correct component for the application’s operating parameters and environment will go a long way toward extending the operating life of the Thyristor. Good design practice should limit the maximum continuous current through the main terminals to 75% of the component rating. Other ways to ensure long life for a power discrete semiconductor are proper heat sinking and selection of voltage ratings for worst case conditions. Overheating, overvoltage (including dv/dt), and surge currents are the main killers of semiconductors. Correct mounting, soldering, and forming of the leads also help protect against component damage.
