®

STARTLIGHT

October 2000 - Ed:1

n

High clamping voltage structure (1200 - 1500V)

n

Low gate triggering current for direct drive from

line (< 1.5mA)

n

High holding current (> 175mA), ensuring high

striking energy.

FEATURES

The TN22 has been specifically developed for use

in electronic starter circuits. Use in conjunction

with a sensitive SCR and a resistor, it provides

high energy striking characteristics with low trig-

gering power. Thanks to its electronic concept, this

TN22 based starter offers high reliability levels and

extended life time of the fluorescent tubelamps.
