Vishay DC Input Optocoupler, Through Hole, 6-Pin SMD

The Vishay optocoupler with phototriac consists of a GaAs IRLED optically coupled to a photosensitive zero crossing TRIAC network. The TRIAC consists of two inverse parallel connected monolithic SCRs. These three semiconductors are assembled in a six pin dual in-line package. High input sensitivity is achieved by using an emitter follower phototransistor and a cascaded SCR predriver resulting in an LED trigger current of less than 2 mA (DC). The 600 V, 800 V blocking voltage permits control of off-line voltages up to 240 VAC, with a safety factor of more than two, and is sufficient for as much as 380 VAC.

It is compliant to RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and in accordance to WEEE 2002/96/EC
