Thyristor Modules

Ac switches produced by Littelfuse use two silicon-controlled rectifiers in an antiparallel configuration to control the flow of alternating current. Designed to mount on printed circuit boards, these thyristor modules principally serve as on–off switches for heating elements in tankless water heaters.
