MAC15 Series  

TRIAC – 400V – 800V  

RoHS

Pb  

Description  

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.

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.
