The NTE5611 through NTE5618 TRIACs are designed primarily for full鈥搘ave AC control applica-
tions, such as light dimmers, motor controls, heating controls, and power supplies; or wherever full鈥?/div>
wave silicon gate controlled solid鈥搒tate devices are needed. TRIAC type thyristors switch from a
blocking to a conducting state for either polarity of applied anode voltage with positive or negative gate
triggering.

Note 1.
NTE5618
is a
discontinued
device and
no longer available.
Note 2. Ratings apply for open gate conditions. Thyristor devices shall not be tested with a constant
current source for blocking capability such that the voltage applied exceeds the rated block-
ing voltage.
Note 3. Torque rating applies with use of torque washer. Mounting torque in excess of 8 in. lbs. does
not appreciably lower case鈥搕o鈥搒ink thermal resistance. Anode lead and heatsink contact
pad are common.
Note 4. For soldering purposes (either terminal connection or device mounting), soldering tempera-
tures shall not exceed +230擄C.
