From the earliest days of transistors, semiconductor circuit designers have needed devices capable of handling the power functions of their equipment.
The past twenty years in the semiconductor industry have brought extensive development of power products-germanium power transistors, silicon power transistors, thyristors, and more recently, power function modules. The future will certainly bring even further developments in power devices and functions.
Along with advancements in integrated circuit technology, improvements in power devices will aid equipment design engineers in their efforts toward continual enhancement of functional utility, cost effectiveness, and reliability of designs.
In this 800-page data book, Texas Instruments is pleased to catalog important power semiconductor products available in the industry, and to present technical information on Tl's broad line of power transistors, thyristors, and power function products.
You will find essential design information on Germanium and Silicon Power Transistors, SCR's, Triacs, and Power Function modules. In Silicon Power, Tl's extensive product line encompasses high-voltage as well as low-voltage, high-safe-operating-area (SOA) designs, power Darlingtons, fast switching types, radiation-tolerant designs, JAN and JANTX types, and both metal can and plastic package types.
Most of the silicon power devices, as well as a broad range of SCR's and Triacs, are offered in Tl's specially designed plastic packages. These designs incorporate glass-passivated junctions with thermally-matched epoxy and piece-parts, for high reliability—plus the adaptability for high-volume, cost-effective production.
Section 8 features the Technical Response Lab (TRL). The TRL facility provides a broad capability for custom designs to meet special needs. This capability includes custom silicon chip design for specific electrical performance, together with custom packaging techniques for reliable performance of devices under unique environmental conditions. These high-volume, low-cost, highly-reliable devices, on one hand, and high-performance, custom designs for special applications, on the other, represent Tl's two-fold approach to the power market. Thus product coverage is broad, with the capability of serving a very wide range of customer needs.
The data book indices are designed with margin tabs for ease in location of data sheets for specific products, as well as general information categories. Included are an alpha-numeric index to product data sheets and product cross-reference and selection guides.
We sincerely hope you will find this Power Semiconductor Data Book for Design Engineers a valuable addition to your technical library. It represents Tl experience since the early 1950's in the design and manufacture of power semiconductor products.
