Introduction
Dynex Semiconductor is
one of the world’s leading
designers and
manufacturers of industrial
high power
semiconductors. The
Company’s unique
capabilities permit the
manufacture of both
standard bipolar
semiconductors and new
generation insulated-gate
bipolar transistors. The
Company’s power products
are used to improve the
efficiency, reliability and
quality of the electric power
in:
Power transmission and
distribution
Alternative power
generation
Marine and rail
propulsion
Aerospace
Medical equipment
Heavy industries such
as metal smelting and
mining
Telecommunications
Electric vehicles
Dynex offers a
comprehensive range of
isolated base-plate water
and air cooled dual
thyristor (SCR), dual diode,
and thyristor/diode
modules with industry
standard footprints. The
diode and thyristor chips
within the modules are
available in several
combinations to make
different circuit
configurations easily
realisable.
Isolation is achieve without
the use of beryllium oxide,
thus avoiding any potential
health hazards in the event
of a major current fault
causing structural damage
to the module.
All the Dynex bipolar
modules are of a pressure
contact construction for
maximum life under duties
with a high degree of
temperature cycling. In
addition all the modules
are recognised under the
Recognised Components
Program of Underwriters
Laboratories Inc. USA, UL
file No. E15069 or have
applications pending
.
