The SIDAC is a silicon bilateral voltage triggered switch. Upon application of a voltage exceeding the SIDAC breakover voltage point, the SIDAC switches on through a negative resistance region to a low on-state voltage. Conductioncontinues until the current is interrupted or drops below the minimum holding current of the device.SIDACs feature glass-passivated junctions to ensure a rugged and dependable device capable of withstanding harsh environments.
