FAQ

What does NZC stand for in this component?

NZC stands for Zero Cross Turn-off, indicating the device turns off the load current only when the AC voltage crosses zero, reducing electromagnetic interference.

Is this optoisolator suitable for phase-angle control?

Yes, it supports random phase operation, meaning it can be triggered at any point in the AC cycle, making it suitable for phase-angle control applications like dimmers.
