Designed primarily for full-wave ac control applications, such as light dimmers, motor controls, heating controls and power supplies; or wherever full−wave silicon gate controlled solid−state devices are needed. Triac type thyristors switch from a blocking to a conducting state for either polarity of applied main terminal voltage with positive or negative gate triggering.

• Blocking Voltage to 800 Volts
• All Diffused and Glass Passivated Junctions for Greater Parameter Uniformity and Stability
• Small, Rugged, Thermowatt Construction for Low Thermal Resistance, High Heat Dissipation and Durability
• Gate Triggering Guaranteed in all Four Quadrants
• For 400 Hz Operation, Consult Factory
• Device Marking: Logo, Device Type, e.g., 2N6344, Date Code
