K3010P

Overview

The K3010P is a single-channel, non-zero crossing phototriac output optocoupler manufactured by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. It features an infrared-emitting diode optically coupled to a phototriac in a 6-lead plastic dual inline package (DIP). Key electrical parameters include a maximum isolation voltage of 5300 Vrms, a peak off-state voltage of 250 V, and a typical static dV/dt rating of 10 kV/µs. The device supports a maximum RMS on-state current of 100 mA with a maximum DC forward current of 80 mA. Operating temperature range spans from -55°C to 100°C.

Feature Summary

• Non-zero crossing switching capability for immediate load control upon input activation
• High insulation voltage rating of 5300 Vrms for robust circuit isolation
• Integrated gallium arsenide infrared LED paired with a sensitive phototriac detector

Applications

• Solid-state relay circuits requiring fast response times
• Motor control systems for AC loads
• Industrial process control isolation interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm the specific suffix (e.g., P vs PG) matches the required pin pitch dimensions for PCB footprint compatibility. Check current production status as availability may vary. Ensure compliance with relevant safety certifications such as UL, VDE, and CQC for end-product integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when non-zero crossing behavior is required for applications needing immediate triac triggering rather than zero-voltage switching. Evaluate the 250 V DRM rating against the peak line voltage of the target application. Consider the 6-DIP package constraints for thermal management and board space. Verify that the 100 mA RMS current capacity meets the load requirements without derating issues.

Part Context

This device belongs to the K3010P(G) series of Triac & SCR Output Optocouplers. It is designed for general-purpose AC power switching applications where galvanic isolation is necessary between low-voltage control logic and high-voltage AC loads. The series offers various package options including standard DIP and surface-mount configurations.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. The K3010P-X007T variant is listed as obsolete with similar substitutes like MOC3009XSM mentioned, but functional equivalence must be verified against specific non-zero crossing and voltage ratings.
