February 24, 2009 – Central Semiconductor Corp. announces the release of the CTLS5064-M532 and CTLS5064R-M532 Low Profile SCR devices packaged in the TLM532 surface mount case. Both devices are single 400V, 0.8A SCRs designed for applications with extreme height limitation. The CTLS5064R-M532 device is a version with the pin configuration of the cathode and gate reversed to meet an alternative layout requirement. The key electrical characteristics of these devices include: 0.8V gate threshold voltage, 200µA gate threshold current, and an on-state switching speed of 2.8µs.

The TLM532 is a DFN package with an overall dimension of 2.1mm x 3.1mm x 1.0mm (L x W x H). It is approximately the same size as the SOT-23. The CTLS5064-M532 replaces the CMPS5064 SOT-23 version for new designs. Central also manufactures the 200V, 0.8A CMPS5062 in the SOT-23. These SCR devices are suitable for applications requiring a fast switching high voltage device with a low profile. Ideal products include: digital camera flash, GFI protection, detectors and sensors, lamp driver, and small motor control.

The CTLS5064-M532 and CTLS5064R-M532 are available bulk packed or 3,000 pcs on 7” tape & reel. Sample devices are available upon request.
