DESCRIPTION

The ACST6-7Sx belongs to the AC power switch family built around the ASD technology. This high performance device is adapted to home appliances or industrial systems and drives an induction motor up to 6A.

This ACST switch embeds a triac structure with a high voltage clamping device to absorb the inductive turn-off energy and withstand line transients such as those described in the IEC61000-4-5 standards.

FEATURES

■ VDRM / VRRM = +/- 700V

■ Avalanche controlled device

■ IT(RMS)=1.5 A with no heat sink and Tamb = 40°C

■ IT(RMS) = 6A with TCASE = 105 °C

■ High noise immunity: static dV/dt > 200 V/µs

■ Gate triggering current : IGT < 10 mA

■ Snubberless turn off commutation: (dI/dt)c > 3.5A/ms

■ D2PAK, I2PAK, TO-220FPAB or TO-220 package

MAIN APPLICATIONS

■ AC static switching in appliance & industrial control systems

■ Induction motor drive actuator for:

- Refrigerator / Freezer compressor
