Product details
Overview
TS110-7A1-AP 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 (IGT). It enables reliable crowbar protection in ground fault and arc fault circuit interrupters where gate drive current is severely limited. Its low leakage current (<1 µA at 25 °C) and robust surge capability (1250 V non-repetitive direct surge) support long-life, high-reliability operation in safety-critical breaker modules.
For engineers reviewing the TS110-7A1-AP datasheet, TS110-7A1-AP pinout, TS110-7A1-AP application, or TS110-7A1-AP equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IGT (≤100 µA), self-protecting overvoltage ruggedness per IEC 61000-4-5, thermal resistance (Rth(j-l) = 14 °C/W), forward voltage drop (VTM ≤ 1.4 V @ 2.5 A), and compatibility with GFCI/AFCI/RCBO control topologies requiring fail-safe crowbar action.
Technical Context
This SCR employs a planar passivated junction structure optimized for high dV/dt immunity (≥15 V/µs at 125 °C) and stable triggering under low-current gate drive. Its gate sensitivity is validated across –40 to +125 °C junction temperature range, with IGT guaranteed ≤100 µA at 25 °C and ≤1 µA minimum at 5% of max rating.
The device implements overvoltage crowbar protection by latching into conduction during transient surges (e.g., IEC 61000-4-5 line spikes), dissipating energy through the load while limiting peak current via external impedance. Recovery occurs automatically after zero-crossing, with ≥10 repeatable surge cycles verified.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IT(RMS) | 1.25 A - Sustained conduction capability at TL = 58 °C in TO-92, enabling compact thermal design in space-constrained GFCI PCBs |
| VDRM / VRRM | 700 V - Blocking voltage rating for 50/60 Hz AC mains isolation in residual current devices |
| IGT (Q1) | 100 µA max - Ultra-low gate trigger current allows direct drive from low-power comparators or microcontroller GPIOs without amplification |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST's TS110-7UF | SMBflat-3L surface-mount package (47 mg), Rth(j-a) = 75 °C/W, IT(RMS) = 1.25 A at Ttab = 110 °C | Designed for automated SMT assembly in high-density RCBO PCBs; lacks axial leads for through-hole GFCI retrofit boards | Select when board space is constrained and reflow compatibility is required; verify thermal pad layout per DS8670 Figure 19 |
| Littelfuse S4006L | 600 V VDRM, 6 A IT(RMS), IGT = 50 mA, TO-220 package, no IEC 61000-4-5 crowbar validation | Higher current handling but requires gate driver IC due to 50× higher IGT; not qualified for self-protecting surge folding | Use only in non-safety-critical crowbar roles where external gate amplification and discrete overvoltage clamping are acceptable |
Compared with TS110-7UF, TS110-7A1-AP offers proven axial-lead reliability in legacy GFCI designs and lower assembly cost for low-volume production; versus S4006L, it delivers 100× lower gate drive burden and certified IEC 61000-4-5 surge resilience-critical for UL 943/UL 1699 compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-cathode resistance for reliable triggering?
The TS110-7A1-AP guarantees triggering with IGT ≤100 µA at RGK = 220 Ω and VD = 12 V. Increasing RGK beyond 220 Ω raises IGT requirement nonlinearly; Figure 7 in DS8670 shows IGT doubles at RGK = 1 kΩ. For production designs, maintain RGK ≤220 Ω to ensure margin across –40 to +125 °C.
Can TS110-7A1-AP be used in bidirectional AC switching applications?
No. TS110-7A1-AP is a unidirectional SCR with anode–cathode polarity dependence. Its gate triggering sensitivity and dV/dt immunity are specified only for forward-blocking mode (A positive vs K). Bidirectional control requires back-to-back SCRs or a TRIAC, neither of which this device implements.
How does the device recover after crowbar activation during a surge?
After latching on during a surge, TS110-7A1-AP remains conducting until current falls below its holding current (IH ≤2 mA) at the next AC zero-crossing. It then regains full 700 V blocking capability within microseconds, verified for ≥10 repeatable IEC 61000-4-5 surges without parameter shift or degradation.
Is the TO-92 package suitable for reflow soldering?
No. The TS110-7A1-AP TO-92 package is intended for wave or hand soldering only. Its epoxy molding compound and leadframe construction are not rated for standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak >260 °C). For SMT assembly, use the SMBflat-3L variant TS110-7UF, which is qualified for JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow.
