1. Product profile
1.1 General description
Passivated high voltage, high commutation triac in a SOT404 surface mounted device,
plastic package. This triac is intended for use in motor control circuits where high blocking
voltage, high static and dynamic dV/dt as well as high dI/dt can occur. This device will
commutate the full rated RMS current at the maximum rated junction temperature without
the aid of a snubber.
