Product data sheet
1. General description
Planar passivated four quadrant triac in a SOT186A (TO-220F) "full pack" plastic
package intended for use in general purpose bidirectional switching and phase control
applications, where high sensitivity is required in all four quadrants. This very sensitive
gate "series D" triac is intended to be interfaced directly to microcontrollers, logic
integrated circuits and other low power gate trigger circuits.
2. Features and benefits
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Direct triggering from low power drivers and logic ICs
High blocking voltage capability
Isolated package
Low holding current for small load currents and lowest EMI at commutation
Planar passivated for voltage ruggedness and reliability
Triggering in all four quadrants
Very sensitive gate for easy logic level triggering
3. Applications
•
•
General purpose motor control
General purpose switching
