General description

Planar passivated high commutation three quadrant triac in a SOT78 (TO-220AB) plastic package. This series D triac balances the requirements of commutation performance and gate sensitivity and 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

• Very sensitive gate for easy logic level triggering

Applications

• Electronic thermostats (heating and cooling)

• Motor controls e.g. washing machines and vacuum cleaners

• Refrigeration and air-conditioner compressor controls
