Motorola Thyristor Device Data

Triacs

Silicon Bidirectional Thyristors

. . . designed primarily for full-wave ac control applications, such as solid-state relays,

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 anode voltage with positive

or negative gate triggering.

• Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts

• All Diffused and Glass Passivated Junctions for Greater Parameter Uniformity

and Stability

• Small, Rugged, Thermowatt Construction for Low Thermal Resistance, High Heat

Dissipation and Durability

• Gate Triggering Guaranteed in Three Modes (MAC320FP Series) or

Four Modes (MAC320AFP Series)

1. VDRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Blocking voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the

voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.

2. The case temperature reference point for all TC measurements is a point on the center lead of the package as close as possible to the

plastic body.
