Product details
Overview
T2563N80TOHXPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a light-triggered phase-control thyristor designed for high-voltage, high-current power conversion systems. It delivers 2300 A average on-state current at 85°C case temperature, 8000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, and 93 kA surge current capability. Its primary role is as a main switching element in HVDC transmission valves and static var compensators.
For engineers reviewing the T2563N80TOHXPSA1 datasheet, T2563N80TOHXPSA1 pinout, T2563N80TOHXPSA1 application, or T2563N80TOHXPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified di/dt rating (300 A/µs), clamping force range (90–130 kN), thermal resistance (4.5 K/kW junction-to-case), and gate trigger light power requirement (≤40 mW).
Technical Context
This thyristor operates as a fully blocking, light-triggered semiconductor switch with integrated break-over diode protection. It sustains full 50/60 Hz reverse blocking over –40°C to +120°C junction temperature and exhibits high DC blocking stability under steady-state voltage stress.
Its turn-off behavior is characterized by 550 µs typical circuit-commutated turn-off time and 22 mAs maximum recovered charge under rated conditions. The device requires precise optical gate triggering and mechanical clamping within 90–130 kN to ensure uniform pressure contact across its 115 mm contact diameter.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 8000 V - maximum repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe blocking margin in HVDC valve stacks |
| ITAVM @ TC=85°C | 2300 A - continuous RMS conduction rating; determines thermal design basis for heatsink sizing |
| ITSM (10 ms) | 93000 A - short-circuit surge current capacity; sets fault-withstand capability of converter arms |
| (diT/dt)cr | 300 A/µs - minimum required commutation di/dt; constrains snubber design and gate drive timing |
| RthJC | 4.5 K/kW - junction-to-case thermal resistance (two-sided cooling); used to calculate ΔTj under loss conditions |
| vT @ 5000 A | 2.95 V max - forward voltage drop at high current; directly impacts conduction losses and efficiency |
| Clamping Force | 90–130 kN - required mechanical compression; ensures low-contact-resistance Si-pellet interface |
Pinout & Package
Package: Press-pack, double-sided cooled, disc-type thyristor with anode and cathode metal surfaces and optical gate input. Dimensions: Ø172.5 mm × 40 mm height; contact diameter Ø115 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Surface) | Main current terminal (positive conduction path) | High-current, pressure-contact interface requiring ≥90 kN clamping for low Rth and uniform current distribution |
| Cathode (Surface) | Main current terminal (negative conduction path) | Thermally coupled output surface; must be mounted to heatsink with ≤1.0 K/kW case-to-heatsink resistance |
| Optical Gate Input | Light-trigger control port | Accepts pulsed LED light (≤40 mW) to initiate conduction; electrically isolated, immune to EMI |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated break-over diode | Provides self-protective overvoltage triggering at ≥7500 V, eliminating need for external crowbar circuits |
| High di/dt capability | 300 A/µs critical rate enables fast forced commutation in line-commutated converters without snubber overload |
| Two-sided thermal path | 4.5 K/kW RthJC supports symmetrical heatsinking-reducing hot-spot risk in multi-thyristor valve columns |
| Wide temperature blocking | Full 50/60 Hz reverse blocking from –40°C to +120°C junction enables operation in uncontrolled ambient environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage light-triggered thyristor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ABB 5STP 32L6800 | 7500 V VRRM, 2200 A ITAVM, 90 kA ITSM, 350 A/µs di/dt | Slightly lower voltage rating and surge current; optimized for ABB's proprietary valve designs | Preferred where ABB valve architecture and gate driver compatibility are required |
| Mitsubishi RT3250FZ-80 | 8000 V VRRM, 2400 A ITAVM, 95 kA ITSM, 250 A/µs di/dt | Higher average current but lower di/dt; uses electrical gate trigger instead of optical | Selected when electrical triggering infrastructure exists and higher ITAVM justifies reduced commutation speed |
Compared with T2563N80TOHXPSA1, the ABB 5STP 32L6800 trades 500 V blocking margin and 3 kA surge headroom for system-level integration advantages, while the Mitsubishi RT3250FZ-80 offers +100 A conduction capacity at the cost of 50 A/µs di/dt margin-impacting snubber sizing and turn-off reliability.

FAQ
What is the required clamping force for reliable operation?
The T2563N80TOHXPSA1 requires a mechanical clamping force between 90 kN and 130 kN to ensure uniform pressure across its 115 mm contact diameter. Insufficient force increases contact resistance and thermal impedance, risking localized overheating and premature failure under rated current.
Does this thyristor support electrical gate triggering?
No-T2563N80TOHXPSA1 is exclusively light-triggered. It has no electrical gate terminal; conduction is initiated only by optical pulse input (≤40 mW at 25°C). Electrical gate triggering is incompatible and will not activate the device.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tvj max) is 120°C. Operation beyond this limit risks irreversible degradation of the silicon pellet and accelerated aging of the pressure-contact interface, even if short-term current ratings appear satisfied.
How is thermal resistance affected by cooling configuration?
RthJC is 4.5 K/kW for two-sided cooling, but rises to 8.2 K/kW (anode-side only) or 10.0 K/kW (cathode-side only). Single-sided mounting degrades thermal performance significantly and requires derating of ITAVM by up to 30% to maintain safe junction temperature.
