The 2P4M to 2P6M are P-gate all diffused plastic molded type SCR granted average on-state current 2 Amps (Tc 77 with rated voltages up to 600 volts.
2P4M is a solid state semiconductor device called Thyristor or SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier). The device is designed to have highly sensitive trigger levels and is suitable for applications where available gate currents are limited.
Pin Configuration
2P4M is a three pin device as shown in above 2P4M pin diagram and we will describe each of these pins below.
| Pin | Name | Function |
| 1 | Cathode | Connected to neutral |
| 2 | Anode | Connected to Load |
| 3 | Gate | Low voltage trigger pulse is given to this pin to turning ON the SCR |
