DIACs, SIDACs Procurement Notes

Verify the obsolete status indicated by some distributors against official Littelfuse documentation before procurement planning. Confirm the DO-35 package compatibility with existing PCB footprints. Ensure the 32-40V breakover range aligns with circuit design requirements. Check for updated replacement recommendations from the manufacturer due to potential lifecycle changes.

DIACs, SIDACs Selection Notes

Select this component when a specific DIAC with a 32-40V breakover threshold is required for AC control applications. The DO-35 package suits standard through-hole assembly processes. Consider the 2A current rating for appropriate load handling. Validate that the -40°C operating minimum meets environmental constraints for the target deployment scenario.

DIACs, SIDACs Part Context

This part belongs to the DIAC/SIDAC category within Littelfuse's circuit protection and power control portfolio. It serves as a trigger device for silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs) and triacs. The DO-35 form factor represents a traditional axial leaded style common in legacy and industrial electronics designs.

DIACs, SIDACs Replacement Considerations

Consult Littelfuse official documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers. Verify electrical parameter equivalence including breakover voltage and current ratings. Ensure package compatibility if direct pin-to-pin substitution is required.
