Phase Control Considerations
LED Trigger Current versus PW (normalized)
The Random Phase POWER OPTO Isolators are designed
to be phase controllable. They may be triggered at any phase
angle within the AC sine wave. Phase control may be accom-
plished by an AC line zero cross detector and a variable pulse
delay generator which is synchronized to the zero cross de-
tector. The same task can be accomplished by a microproces-
sor 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 ampli-
tude as shown on Figure 11. This graph shows the dependen-
cy of the trigger current IFT versus the pulse width t (PW). The
reason f or the I FT dependency on the pulse width c an be seen
on the chart delay t(d) versus the LED trigger current.
IFT in the graph IFT versus (PW) is normalized in respect to
the minimum specified IFT for static condition, which is speci-
fied in the device characteristic. The normalized IFT has to be
multiplied with the devices guaranteed static trigger current.
Example:
Guaranteed IFT = 10 mA, Trigger pulse width PW = 3 µs
IFT (pulsed) = 10 mA x 5 = 50 mA
Minimum LED Off Time in Phase Control Applications
In phase control applications one intends to be able to con-
trol each AC sine half wave from 0 to 180 degrees. T urn on at
zero degrees means full power, and turn on at 180 degrees
means zero power. This is not quite possible in reality be-
cause 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 turn on pulse at the trailing edge of the AC
sine wave must be limited to end 200 µs before AC zero
cross as shown in Figure 12. This assures that the device
has time to switch off. Shorter times may cause loss off con-
trol at the following half cycle.

t(delay), t(f) versus IFT
The POWER OPTO Isolators turn on switching speed con-
sists of a turn on delay time t(d) and a fall time t(f). Figure 13
shows that the delay time depends on the LED trigger cur-
rent, while the actual trigger transition time t(f) stays constant
with about one micro second.
The delay time is important in very short pulsed operation
because it demands a higher trigger current at very short trig-
ger pulses. This dependency is shown in the graph IFT ver-
sus LED PW.
The turn on transition time t(f) combined with the power
triacs turn on time is important to the power dissipation of this
device.

MOC2R60 Select the value of R1 according to the following formulas:
(1) R1 = (VCC – VF) / Max. IFT (on) per spec.
(2) R1 = (VCC – VF) / 0.050
Typical values for C1 and R2 are 0.01 µF and 39 ,
respectively. You may adjust these values for specific
applications. The maximum recommended value of C1 is
0.022 µF. See application note AN1048 for additional
information on component values.
The MOV may or may not be needed depending upon the
characteristics of the applied AC line voltage. For
applications where line spikes may exceed the 600 volts
rating of the MOC2R60, an MOV is required.

Figure 16. PC Board Layout Recommendations
Thermal measurements
of RθJC are referenced to
the point on the heat tab
indicated with an ‘X’.
Measurements should be
taken with device orientated
along its vertical axis.
Use care to maintain the minimum spacings as
shown. Safety and regulatory requirements dictate
a minimum of 8.0 mm between the closest points
between input and output conducting paths,
Pins 3 and 7. Also, 0.070 inches distance is
required between the two output Pins, 7 and 9.
Keep pad sizes on Pins 7 and 9 as large as possible for
optimal performance.

PD = Power dissipation
RθSA = Thermal resistance, heat sink to ambient
RθCA = Thermal resistance, case to ambient
RθCS = Thermal resistance, heat sink to case
RθJC = Thermal resistance, junction to case
Values for thermal resistance components are: RθCA = 36°C/W/in maximum
