DESCRIPTION
The MOC3051-M and MOC3052-M consist of a AlGaAs infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a non-zero-crossing silicon
bilateral AC switch (triac). These devices isolate low voltage logic from 115 and 240 Vac lines to provide random phase control of
high current triacs or thyristors. These devices feature greatly enhanced static dv/dt capability to ensure stable switching perfor-
mance of inductive loads.

Note
1. Test voltage must be applied within dv/dt rating.
2. All devices are guaranteed to trigger at an I
F
value less than or equal to max I
FT
. Therefore, recommended operating I
F
lies
between max 15 mA for MOC3051, 10 mA for MOC3052 and absolute max I
F
(60 mA).
3. Isolation surge votlage, VISO, is an internal device breakdown rating. For this text, pins 1 and 2 are common, and pins 4, 5 and
6 are common.

sine wave. Phase control may be accomplished by an AC line
zero cross detector and a variable pulse delay generator which
is synchronized to the zero cross detector. The same task can
be accomplished by a microprocessor which is synchronized
to the AC zero crossing. The phase controlled trigger current
may be a very short pulse which saves energy delivered to the
input LED. LED trigger pulse currents shorter than 100 µs must
have an increased amplitude as shown on Figure 4. This graph
shows the dependency of the trigger current I

versus (PW) is normalized in respect to the
minimum specified I

Figure 5. Minimum Time for LED Turn–Off to Zero
Cross of AC Trailing Edge
In Phase control applications one intends to be able to control
each AC sine half wave from 0 to 180 degrees. Turn on at zero
degrees means full power and turn on at 180 degree means
zero power. This is not quite possible in reality because triac
driver and triac have a fixed turn on time when activated at
zero degrees. At a phase control angle close to 180 degrees
the driver’s turn on pulse at the trailing edge of the AC sine
wave must be limited to end 200 ms before AC zero cross as
shown in Figure 5. This assures that the triac driver has time
to switch off. Shorter times may cause loss of control at the
following half cycle.

Triac drivers with good noise immunity (dv/dt static) have inter-
nal noise rejection circuits which prevent false triggering of the
device in the event of fast raising line voltage transients. Induc-
tive loads generate a commutating dv/dt that may activate the
triac drivers noise suppression circuits. This prevents the
device from turning on at its specified trigger current. It will in
this case go into the mode of “half waving” of the load. Half
waving of the load may destroy the power triac and the load.
Figure 8 shows the dependency of the triac drivers I
FT
versus
the reapplied voltage rise with a Vp of 400 V. This dv/dt condi-
tion simulates a worst case commutating dv/dt amplitude.
It can be seen that the I
FT
does not change until a commutat-
ing dv/dt reaches 1000 V/ms. The data sheet specified I
FT
is
therefore applicable for all practical inductive loads and load
factors.
