Preferred Device
Triacs
Silicon Bidirectional Thyristors
Designed primarily for full-wave ac control applications, such as
motor controls, heating controls or dimmers; or wherever full−wave,
silicon gate−controlled devices are needed.
Features
• Uniform Gate Trigger Currents in Three Quadrants, Q1, Q2, and Q3
• High Commutating di/dt and High Immunity to dv/dt @ 125°C
• Minimizes Snubber Networks for Protection
• Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts
• On-State Current Rating of 12 Amperes RMS at 80°C
• High Surge Current Capability − 100 Amperes
• Industry Standard TO-220AB Package for Ease of Design
• Glass Passivated Junctions for Reliability and Uniformity
• Pb−Free Packages are Available*

Maximum ratings are those values beyond which device damage can occur.
Maximum ratings applied to the device are individual stress limit values (not
normal operating conditions) and are not valid simultaneously. If these limits are
exceeded, device functional operation is not implied, damage may occur and
reliability may be affected.
1. VDRM and VRRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Blocking
voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the
voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
