XT2116

1/4

APPLICATIONS

s Pulse Modulators

s Laser Diode Triggering

s Capacitor Discharge Applications

FEATURES

s The XT2116 is Asymmetrical Thyristor in which the

reverse voltage capability has been sacrificed to enable a

high forward blocking characteristic combined with

excellent turn-on performance.

s Designed for rapid and efficient switching of high

current pulses.
