NTE5408 thru NTE5410  
Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR)  
3 Amp Sensitive Gate, TO5  
Description:  
The NTE5408 through NTE5410 sensitive gate SCRs are designed to be driven directly with IC and  
MOS devices.
 
These SCRs feature proprietary, void
−
free glass
−
passivated chips and are hermeti-  
cally sealed in TO5 type packages.
 
These 4A devices are available in voltages up to 600V and with  
a gate current of 200
μ
A.  
These NTE SCRs are reverse
−
blocking triode thyristors and may be switched from off
−
state to con-  
duction by a current pulse applied to the gate terminal.
 
The NTE5408 through NTE5410 are designed  
for control applications in lighting, heating, cooling, and static switching relays.
