About this product
The MCR100-8 is a sensitive-gate silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) in a TO-92 package, rated for 0.8 A RMS on-state current and 800 V peak off-state voltage. Its low gate trigger current allows it to be switched by small gate signals. It is used in simple AC control and switching circuits.

Can I drive the gate directly from a microcontroller pin?
The low gate trigger current helps, but a series gate resistor is normally used to limit gate current. Check the gate current and voltage ratings in the datasheet before connecting it to a microcontroller pin.
How is an SCR turned off?
Once triggered, an SCR stays on until the anode current drops below its holding current, which normally happens at the end of each AC half-cycle. It cannot be switched off by removing the gate signal.
