GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Passivated guaranteed commutation triacs in
a plastic envelope suitable for surface
mounting, intended for use in motor control
circuits or with other highly inductive loads.
These devices balance the requirements of
commutation performance
and gate
sensitivity. The "sensitive gate" E series and
"logic level" D series are intended for
interfacing with low power drivers, including
micro controllers.

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 15 A/µs.
