GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Passivated, sensitive gate triac in a full
pack plastic envelope, intended for use
in general purpose bidirectional
switching
and
phase
control
applications. This device is intended to
be interfaced directly to microcontrollers,
logic integrated circuits and other low
power gate trigger circuits.

Although not recommended, off-state voltages up to 800V may be applied without damage, but the triac may
switch to the on-state. The rate of rise of current should not exceed 6 A/µs.
