1. Product profile
1.1 General description
Planar passivated sensitive gate four quadrant triac in a SOT78 (TO-220AB) plastic
package intended for use in applications requiring high bidirectional transient and blocking
voltage capability and high thermal cycling performance. Typical applications include
motor control, industrial and domestic lighting, heating and static switching. This sensitive
gate "series E" triac is intended to be interfaced directly to microcontrollers, logic
integrated circuits and other low power gate trigger circuits.
1.2 Features and benefits
High blocking voltage capability
High noise immunity
Planar passivated for voltage
ruggedness and reliability
Sensitive gate
Triggering in all four quadrants
1.3 Applications
General purpose motor control
General purpose switching

Although not recommended, off-state voltages up to 800 V may be applied without damage, but the triac
may switch to the on-state. The rate of rise of current should not exceed 15 A/ms.
