General description

Planar passivated high commutation three quadrant triac in a SOT78 plastic package. This series D triac balances the requirements of commutation performance and gate sensitivity. The very sensitive gate series D is intended for interfacing with low power drivers including microcontrollers.

Features and benefits

■ 3Q technology for improved noise immunity

■ Direct interfacing with low power drivers and microcontrollers

■ Good immunity to false turn-on by dV/dt

■ High commutation capability with very sensitive gate

■ High voltage capability

■ Planar passivated for voltage ruggedness and reliability

■ Triggering in three quadrants only

Applications

■ Electronic thermostats (heating and cooling)

■ High power motor controls e.g. washing machines and vacuum cleaners
