Triacs

Silicon Bidirectional Thyristors

Designed primarily for full-wave ac control applications, such as light dimmers, motor controls, heating controls and power supplies; or wherever full-wave silicon gate controlled solid-state devices are needed. Triac type thyristors switch from a blocking to a conducting state for either polarity of applied anode voltage with positive or negative gate triggering.

Features

•Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts

•All Diffused and Glass Passivated Junctions for Greater Parameter Uniformity and Stability

•Small, Rugged, Thermowatt Construction for Low Thermal Resistance, High Heat Dissipation and Durability

•Gate Triggering Guaranteed in Four Modes

•Pb−Free Packages are Available*
