Features
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 main terminal voltage with
positive or negative gate triggering.

Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied.
Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability.
1. VDRM and VRRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Ratings apply for zero or negative gate voltage; however, positive gate voltage shall not be applied concurrent with negative
potential on the anode. Blocking voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
