Features

• Zero-Crossing Detection: The MOC3083 triggers the Triac only at the zero-crossing point of the AC waveform. This feature helps in reducing electrical noise and stress on the load, leading to smoother operation and increased reliability.
• High Isolation Voltage: The device offers a high isolation voltage of 5,000 VRMS between the input and output, ensuring safe operation in circuits with high voltages.
• Low Input Drive Current: The LED requires a relatively low drive current (10-15 mA typical) to activate the Triac, making it compatible with a wide range of control circuits.
• High Static dv/dt Capability: The IC can handle high dv/dt (rate of change of voltage) without unintended triggering, which is important for operation in electrically noisy environments.
• Compact 6-Pin DIP or SMD Package: Available in a standard 6-pin DIP or surface-mount package, allowing for easy integration into various circuit designs.
• RoHS Compliant: The IC meets environmental standards, being lead-free and compliant with RoHS regulations.
