Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
Planar passivated high commutation three quadrant triac in a SOT186A "full pack" plastic
package intended for use in circuits where high static and dynamic dV/dt and high dI/dt
can occur. This "series B" triac will commutate the full rated RMS current at the maximum
rated junction temperature without the aid of a snubber.
1.2 Features and benefits
3Q technology for improved noise
immunity
High commutation capability with
maximum false trigger immunity
High immunity to false turn-on by dV/dt
High voltage capability
Isolated mounting base package
Planar passivated for voltage
ruggedness and reliability
Triggering in three quadrants only
1.3 Applications
Electronic thermostats
General purpose motor controls
Rectifier-fed DC inductive loads e.g.
DC motors and solenoids
