Press Release
Customised discrete power semiconductors
Fagor Electronica is a dedicated manufacturer of discrete power semiconductors, producing TRIACs and SCRs as part of its core business. We offer over 200 Fagor high commutation TRIACs to provide a comprehensive choice of characteristics and packages for applications such as motor control and other inductive switching circuits. Over 250 logic level TRIACs provide very high switching performances with low gate current drives, allowing direct drive from microcontrollers. Almost 300 variants of standard TRIACs are ideal for general purpose switching and phase control applications, for example for applications as ON/OFF switches in white goods, or as variable load controllers in light dimmers and hand tools.
Fagor SCRs include over 100 standard, high-performance, glass-passivated, silicon-controlled rectifiers for power supplies. They each offer different characteristics or packages, and over 200 variants of sensitive gate SCRs. These allow direct triggering from low power microcontroller or logic IC outputs, thus simplifying drive circuit design and reducing component count and assembly cost.
