MAC15 Series

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 main terminal voltage

with positive or negative gate triggering.

Features

•Blocking Voltage to 800 V

•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 (MAC15 Series) or

Four Modes (MAC15A Series)

•These Devices are Pb−Free and are RoHS Compliant*

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. Blocking

voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the

voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
