MTT-63-12

Internal circuit and operating principle

The module contains Two series-connected p-n-p-n thyristors in a half-bridge circuit. A control signal at the gate starts conduction, allowing the assembly to be used in controlled rectifiers, AC regulators, converters and motor-control circuits. See thyristor for the operating principle. The published operating-frequency limit is Up to 500 Hz / до 500 Гц, and the external circuit must follow the terminal diagram marked on the case or specified in the product passport.

MTT-63-12 electrical ratings

The principal catalogue ratings are 63 A average current and 1200 V repetitive voltage. The listed surge-current capability is 1.2 kA; the maximum on-state-voltage value is ≤ 1.5 V. The maximum leakage-current value is ≤ 15 mA, while the junction-temperature range is −60 to +125 °C. Gate-trigger limits are ≤ 150 mA current and ≤ 3.5 V voltage; the specified turn-off time is 80 µs. These are selection limits, not permission to operate without thermal calculation and the applicable technical documentation.

Housing, cooling and installation

The module uses the MTD1 case and measures 92 × 20 × 30 mm with a mass of ≤ 150 g. Natural or forced-air cooling may be used with compatible heat sinks O24, O34, O55, O56, O57, O58. The mounting surface must be flat and clean, and the terminal hardware must be tightened to the value stated in the passport. The published ambient range is −60 to +50 °C.

Identification and selection

Match the full MTT-63-12 marking, circuit symbol, terminal layout, voltage class, current rating and housing size. Similar MDD, MTT and MTOTO devices are not interchangeable merely because their case dimensions are alike. Confirm the cooling arrangement and technical conditions before installation.
