Motorola Thyristor Device Data

TRIACS

Silicon Bidirectional Thyristors

Designed for high performance full-wave ac control applications where high

noise immunity and high commutating di/dt are required.

• Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts

• On-State Current Rating of 15 Amperes RMS at 80°C

• Uniform Gate Trigger Currents in Three Modes

• High Immunity to dv/dt — 500 V/µs minimum at 125°C

• Minimizes Snubber Networks for Protection

• Industry Standard TO-220AB Package

• High Commutating di/dt — 9.0 A/ms minimum at 125°C

VDRM 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.

Preferred devices are Motorola recommended choices for future use and best overall value.
