NTE5600 thru NTE5607
TRIAC, 4 Amp
Description:
The NTE5600 through NTE5607 TRIACs are designed primarily for full–wave AC control applications
such as light dimmers, motor controls, heating controls and power supplies; or wherever full–wave
silicon gate controlled solid–state devices are needed. TRIAC type thyristors switch from a blocking
to a conducting state for either polarity of applied anode voltage with positive or negative gate triggering.

Note 1. Ratings apply for open gate conditions. Thyristor devices shall not be tested with a constant
current source for blocking capability such that the voltage applied exceeds the rated block-
ing voltage.
Note 2. Torque rating applies with the use of a compression washer. Mounting torque in excess of
8 in. lb. does not appreciably lower case–to–sink thermal resistance. MT
