Three quadrant triacs
guaranteed commutation
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Passivated guaranteed commutation triacs
in a plastic envelope suitable for surface
mounting, intended for use in motor control
circuits or with other highly inductive loads.
These devices balance the requirements of
commutation performance and gate
sensitivity. The "logic level" D series is
intended for interfacing with low power
drivers, including micro controllers.

Although not recommended, off-state voltages up to 800V may be applied without damage, but the triac may
switch to the on-state. The rate of rise of current should not exceed 6 A/µs.
