Triacs
Silicon Bidirectional Thyristors
Designed primarily for full-wave ac control applications, such as
motor controls, heating controls or dimmers; or wherever full−wave,
silicon gate−controlled devices are needed.
Features
• Uniform Gate Trigger Currents in Three Quadrants, Q1, Q2, and Q3
• High Commutating di/dt and High Immunity to dv/dt @ 125°C
• Minimizes Snubber Networks for Protection
• Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts
• On-State Current Rating of 12 Amperes RMS at 80°C
• High Surge Current Capability − 100 Amperes
• Industry Standard TO-220AB Package for Ease of Design
• Glass Passivated Junctions for Reliability and Uniformity
• These Devices are Pb−Free and are RoHS Compliant*
