Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a light thyristor surge protection structure, in particular to a light thyristor surge protection structure capable of improving surge resistance. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, opto-thyrisytor and phototriac are widely used in circuit switching, isolation and overload protection applications.

[0003] At present, the surge protection capability of the components of both light-emitting thyristors and light-emitting bidirectional thyristors is becoming more and more important to avoid component misoperation or burning. Therefore, the surge protection capability of components has become a parameter that needs to be paid attention to in component specifications.

[0004] In actual application environments, if the surge resistance of components is to be greater than 5 amperes (A), the overall structure will be more complicated, making the manufacturing process more difficult. To improve the surge resistance, additional circuit structures (such as MOS transistors) or additional passive components (such as capacitors) are often required for series connection. These additional circuits and components will increase the complexity of the manufacturing process itself.

[0005] In view of this, how to improve the surge resistance of the light-illuminated thyristor and the light-illuminated bidirectional thyristor without increasing the complexity of the manufacturing process and maintaining the cost is an issue that needs to be solved urgently in the industry.
