MAC16D, MAC16M, MAC16N are three high performance full-wave ac control application thyristors from Motorola with high noise immunity and high commutating di/dt.
This document provides technical data for the Motorola MAC16 series of silicon bidirectional thyristors. These devices are designed for high-performance full-wave AC control applications requiring high noise immunity and high commutating di/dt capabilities.
The datasheet lists maximum ratings, including blocking voltages up to 800 Volts and an on-state current rating of 15 Amperes RMS at 80°C. It also details electrical characteristics such as gate trigger currents and voltages for positive and negative modes, along with dynamic parameters like the critical rate of rise of off-state voltage.
