Special Features:

4storage temp. Range=-40 to 150 deg. C.; the ceramic of the isolated stud pkg. Contains beryllium oxide. Do not crush, grind, or abrade this part because the dust resulting from such action may be hazardous if inhaled. Disposal should be by burial

Properties:

A bistable semiconductor device comprising three or more junctions which is normally a nonconductor until the application of a signal to a gate terminal, at which time the device switches to the conductive state. Includes devices capable of being switched back to the nonconductive state upon application of a different signal to the same or another gate terminal. May or may not include mounting hardware and/or heatsink. For solid state devices which are responsive to visible or infrared radiant energy, see semiconductor device, photo.
