Thyristors - TRIACs

Thyristors, also known as triodes for alternating current (TRIACs), are highly versatile electrical devices capable of controlling current flow in both directions. As such, TRIACs are used in a wide variety of applications, from power controllers to dimmers and motor control. The ACTT10-800CTNQ is a modern TRIAC that has particular advantages in certain applications.

ACTT10-800CTNQ Application Field

The ACTT10-800CTNQ was specially designed for 220V AC loads and is especially useful for applications requiring low losses, such as lighting and speed control for AC motors. It is also suitable for more general purpose switching applications, and its unique combination of high speed, low thermal resistance, and low gate charging current makes it an ideal choice for many systems.

Other notable features of the ACTT10-800CTNQ include its ability to withstand surge voltages of 500V, excellent noise immunity, which reduces the likelihood of false triggering, and its ability to function reliably in extreme environments. Such characteristics make it an ideal choice for many domestic, commercial and industrial applications.

ACTT10-800CTNQ Working Principle

In order to understand how the ACTT10-800CTNQ works, it is important to first understand how TRIACs work in general. A TRIAC is a three-terminal semiconductor device which is capable of controlling current in both directions. It consists of two parallel-connected thyristors, which each contain three terminals (anode, gate, and cathode).

When the gate receives a positive voltage, the TRIAC switches on and allows current to flow between its anode and cathode. When the gate is given a negative voltage, the TRIAC switches off and does not allow current to flow. This is called the AC switching principle, since the current is allowed to flow both in the positive and negative half cycles of the AC wave.

The ACTT10-800CTNQ works on this same principle, but with a few notable differences. Firstly, it employs a special zero cross triggering feature, which reduces the risk of false triggering by allowing the device to only switch on in the positive half cycle of the wave, then tracing the rest of the wave back to zero. This reduces the electrical shock hazard and increases the durability of the device.

Secondly, the ACTT10-800CTNQ is designed with a built-in snubber capacitor, which helps to limit the voltage spike that can occur when the device is being switched off. This capability makes it better suited for applications in which higher voltages are involved.

Finally, the ACTT10-800CTNQ also includes a built-in current limit circuit, which helps to protect the device from over current, thermal Runaway, and out-of-range gate voltages, thereby increasing its overall reliability.

Conclusion

The ACTT10-800CTNQ is an advanced, feature-rich TRIAC device designed for the most demanding of industrial applications. With its high speed, low thermal resistance, and low gate charging current, it is an ideal choice for many power control, motor control, and general purpose switching applications. Its features such as zero cross triggering, built-in snubber capacitor, and current limit circuit make it even better suited for delicate and precise control tasks, and its ability to operate reliably in harsh environments make it a reliable and trustworthy choice for many power control solutions.
