Description
The ACST6 series belongs to the ACS/ACST power switch family built with A.S.D. (application specific discrete) technology. This high performance device is suited to home appliances or industrial systems, and drives loads up to 6 A.
FEATUREs
• Triac with overvoltage protection
• Low IGT (< 10 mA)
• TO-220FPAB insulated package:
– complies with UL standards (file ref: E81734)
– insulation voltage: 2000 VRMS
Benefits
• Enables equipment to meet IEC 61000-4-5
• High off-state reliability with planar technology
• Needs no external overvoltage protection
• Reduces the power passive component count
• High immunity against fast transients described in IEC 61000-4-4 standards
APPLICATIONs
• AC mains static switching in appliance and industrial control systems
• Drive of medium power AC loads such as:
– Universal motor of washing machine drum
– Compressor for fridge or air conditioner
