In the off state, the SIDAC exhibits leakage currents (IDRM) less than 5 μA. As applied voltage exceeds the SIDAC VBO, the device begins to enter a negative Load resistance switching mode with characteristics similar to an avalanche diode. When supplied with enough current (IS), the SIDAC switches to an on state, allowing high current to flow. When it switches to on state, the voltage across the device drops to less than 5 V, depending on magnitude of the current flow. When the SIDAC switches on and drops into regeneration, it remains on as long as holding current is less than maximum value (150 mA, typical value of 30 mA to 65 mA). The switching current (IS) is very near the holding current (IH) value.

  • Unijunction Transistor
    ELEC-SPD-S2 Credits: www.electronics-tutorials.ws 1/6 Home / Power Electronics / Unijunction Transistor Unijunction Transistor The UJT is a three-terminal, semiconductor device which exhibits negative resistance and switching characteristics for use as a relaxation oscillator in phase control applications The Unijunction Transistor or UJT for short, is another solid state three terminal device that can be used in gate pulse, timing circuits and trigger generator applications to switch and control either thyristors and triac’s for AC power control type applications. Like diodes, unijunction transistors are constructed from separate P-type and N-type semiconductor materials forming a single (hence its name Uni-Junction) PN-junction within the main conducting N-type channel of the device. Although the Unijunction Transistor has the name of a transistor, its switching characteristics are very different from those of a conventional bipolar or field effect transistor as it can not be used to amplify a signal but instead is used as a ON-OFF switching transistor. UJT’s have unidirectional conductivity and negative impedance characteristics acting more like a variable voltage divider during breakdown. Like N-channel FET’s, the UJT consists of a single solid piece of N-type semiconductor material forming the main current carrying channel with its two outer connections marked as Base 2 ( B2 ) and Base 1 ( B1 ). The third connection, confusingly marked as the Emitter ( E ) is located along the channel. The emitter terminal is / represented by an arrow pointing from the P-type emitter to the N-type base. The Emitter rectifying p-n junction of the unijunction transistor is formed by fusing the P-type material into the N-type silicon channel.
