Product details
Overview
TS110-7A1 from STMicroelectronics is a highly sensitive, 700 V repetitive peak off-state voltage silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) in TO-92 package with GAK pinout, rated for 1.25 A RMS on-state current and 100 µA maximum gate trigger current. It serves as a crowbar protection switch in ground fault and arc fault circuit interrupters, delivering low leakage (<100 µA at 125 °C), robust surge handling (1250 V non-repetitive direct surge), and fast dV/dt immunity (≥15 V/µs at 125 °C).
For engineers reviewing the TS110-7A1 datasheet, TS110-7A1 pinout, TS110-7A1 application, or TS110-7A1 equivalent, this part is selected for high-reliability AC line transient protection where limited gate drive capability, low power loss, and self-triggering overvoltage ruggedness are critical - especially in RCD/RCBO designs requiring stable latching behavior and thermal resilience up to 125 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The TS110-7A1 is a unidirectional SCR optimized for automatic crowbar activation during AC line surges per IEC 61000-4-5, switching into conduction within microseconds when VD exceeds ~67 % of VDRM (≥15 V/µs dV/dt immunity). Its ultra-low IGT (max 100 µA at 25 °C) enables direct triggering from high-impedance sensing circuits without external amplification.
It features a low on-state voltage drop (VTM ≤ 1.4 V at 2.5 A, 25 °C), dynamic resistance ≤ 200 mΩ, and thermal resistance Rth(j-l) = 14 °C/W (TO-92), supporting reliable operation under repeated 8.3 ms surges up to 27 A while maintaining <2 mA holding current (IH) and <2 mA latching current (IL) across -40 to +125 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IT(RMS) | 1.25 A - Sustains continuous load current in GFCI/AFCI trip circuits without thermal derating at TL = 58 °C |
| VDRM / VRRM | 700 V - Blocks full AC mains cycle peaks (e.g., 230 VRMS × √2 ≈ 325 V) with 2× safety margin |
| IGT (Q1) | 100 µA max - Enables direct gate drive from microcontroller GPIO or op-amp comparator outputs |
| VTM | ≤1.4 V at 2.5 A - Minimizes conduction loss and self-heating during crowbar event |
| dV/dt immunity | ≥15 V/µs at 125 °C - Prevents false triggering from fast transients in noisy industrial environments |
| IDRM / IRRM | ≤100 µA at 125 °C - Ensures low standby power consumption over 10+ year circuit breaker lifetime |
| Rth(j-l) | 14 °C/W - Supports 1.25 A RMS operation with minimal heatsinking in TO-92 through-hole layout |
Pinout & Package
TS110-7A1 is supplied in TO-92 package (lead-free, halogen-free, UL94 V0 epoxy) with axial leads and standard GAK (Gate-Anode-Cathode) terminal arrangement. The package supports manual or wave soldering and provides mechanical stability for high-vibration circuit breaker housings.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control input | Accepts low-current trigger signal (≤100 µA) to initiate latching conduction; high impedance (>7.5 V reverse blocking) |
| A (Anode) | Main current entry | Connects to AC line phase; withstands 700 V repetitive blocking and 1250 V surge before crowbar activation |
| K (Cathode) | Main current exit | Routes current to load or trip coil; defines reference for gate bias and holds latched state until current zero-crossing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Self-protecting crowbar action | Automatically triggers on-line surge exceeding 67 % VDRM, clamping energy safely through load without external components |
| Ultra-low gate trigger current | Max 100 µA enables direct interface with low-power comparators or MCU pins - no driver stage required |
| High dV/dt immunity | ≥15 V/µs at 125 °C prevents spurious turn-on from EMI or switching noise in shared PCB layouts |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-l) = 14 °C/W allows 1.25 A RMS operation in TO-92 without heatsink or airflow |
| Extended temperature range | -40 to +125 °C operating junction range ensures reliability in enclosed, thermally constrained breaker enclosures |
Applications
| Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) | Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Detects differential current >5 mA between line and neutral to prevent electrocution. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: SCR acts as crowbar switch that shorts line-to-load upon trip signal, forcing upstream breaker to open. Use Value: Low IGT allows direct drive from isolation amplifier output; fast dV/dt immunity avoids nuisance tripping during motor startup. | Use Scenario: Monitors high-frequency current signatures to detect series/parallel arcing faults in branch circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Latched crowbar device activated by analog front-end comparator; sustains conduction until AC zero-crossing. Use Value: VTM ≤1.4 V minimizes power dissipation during 10-ms crowbar window; low IH (<2 mA) ensures clean turn-off at current zero. |
| Residual Current Device (RCD) | Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload (RCBO) |
Use Scenario: Protects against earth leakage in domestic and commercial installations per IEC 61000-4-5. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage protection element triggered by transient-induced gate voltage rise. Use Value: 1250 V non-repetitive direct surge rating absorbs 10/700 µs telecom surges without degradation; Rth(j-l) = 14 °C/W maintains thermal stability during repeated tests. | Use Scenario: Combines residual current detection and thermal-magnetic overload protection in single-pole units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Crowbar SCR integrated into trip-coil drive path, activated only during overvoltage events - independent of thermal trip mechanism. Use Value: IDRM ≤100 µA at 125 °C reduces standby power draw below 100 µW, extending battery backup life in smart RCBOs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SCR-based crowbar protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STPS110-7A1 | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in ECOPACK2 compliance marking and packaging format (ammopack vs bulk) | No functional difference; suitable for same GFCI/RCD designs requiring RoHS-compliant logistics | Select when full ECOPACK2 documentation and traceable ammopack delivery are required |
| Littelfuse S4006L | Higher IGT (500 µA max), lower VDRM (600 V), higher VTM (1.7 V), TO-220 package | Requires gate driver; unsuitable for space-constrained TO-92 layouts; less efficient in low-power crowbar duty | Only consider if higher surge current (40 A) is prioritized over gate sensitivity and thermal footprint |
Compared with STPS110-7A1, TS110-7A1 offers identical performance with standard bulk packaging; versus S4006L, it delivers 5× lower gate drive requirement and 20 % lower conduction loss in compact TO-92 - critical for miniaturized, battery-backed RCD modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-cathode resistance for reliable triggering?
The TS110-7A1 requires RGK ≤ 220 Ω to guarantee triggering at IGT ≤ 100 µA across -40 to +125 °C. At higher resistances, IGT increases significantly - e.g., RGK = 1 kΩ raises typical IGT to ~500 µA, risking failure to latch in low-drive applications like battery-powered GFCIs.
Can TS110-7A1 be used in bidirectional AC protection circuits?
No - TS110-7A1 is a unidirectional SCR and blocks only in the reverse direction (VRRM = 700 V) but conducts only when anode is positive relative to cathode. For bidirectional protection, two TS110-7A1 devices must be connected in inverse-parallel, or a dedicated TRIAC such as ST's BT139-600E should be selected.
How does the TS110-7A1 recover after a crowbar event?
After conducting during a surge, TS110-7A1 automatically regains full blocking capability at the next natural current zero-crossing of the AC waveform (within ≤10 ms on 50 Hz mains). No reset signal or external circuitry is needed - recovery is inherent to SCR physics and confirmed for ≥10 IEC 61000-4-5 surge cycles.
Is the TO-92 package of TS110-7A1 compatible with automated through-hole assembly?
Yes - the TO-92 package meets IPC-7351B standards with defined lead pitch (2.54 mm), coplanarity, and lead form (straight, tinned). It supports wave soldering and selective soldering processes; however, thermal profiling must respect peak temperature ≤260 °C for ≤10 s to preserve UL94 V0 epoxy integrity and junction reliability.
