MAC97A8/DG,412

Triacs Overview

The MAC97A8/DG,412 is a planar passivated four-quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It features a 600 V rated repetitive off-state voltage and conducts an RMS on-state current of 600 mA. The device has a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 8.8 A and a maximum holding current of 10 mA. Gate triggering requires a maximum voltage of 900 mV and current of 4 mA. It operates at temperatures up to +125 °C and is housed in a TO-92-3 through-hole package.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Four-quadrant sensitivity for direct interfacing with microcontrollers and logic circuits
• Planar passivated construction for enhanced reliability
• Through-hole mounting in a compact TO-92-3 plastic package

Triacs Applications

• Lighting control systems
• Motor speed regulation
• Heater control circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against manufacturer documentation to confirm packaging details. The /DG,412 designation indicates bulk packing in straight lead TO-92 packages. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free conversion dates via official datasheets before procurement.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component for low-power AC switching applications requiring high gate sensitivity. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 600 V blocking capability and 600 mA continuous current rating. Verify that the thermal management supports operation within the specified +125 °C junction temperature limit.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the MAC97A8 family of very sensitive gate triacs. The /DG,412 suffix specifically denotes the bulk pack configuration in a TO-92 package. Other variants exist with different packing methods, such as tape and reel options, while maintaining identical electrical characteristics.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other MAC97A8 variants from WeEn Semiconductors or equivalent triacs from other manufacturers. Ensure pinout compatibility and matching electrical ratings when substituting.
