This document is about the data information manual of Motorola's MAC229 series and MAC229A series silicon bidirectional triode thyristors
This document provides technical data for the Motorola MAC229 and MAC229A series of Silicon Bidirectional Triode Thyristors (Triacs). These devices are designed for full wave control of AC loads in industrial and consumer applications, such as appliance and motor controls. The datasheet covers maximum ratings, thermal characteristics, and electrical specifications for various voltage ratings ranging from 200 to 800 volts.
| Peak Repetitive Off-State Voltage | 200 to 800 Volts |
|---|---|
| On-State RMS Current | 8 Amps |
| Peak Non-repetitive Surge Current | 80 Amps |
| Operating Junction Temperature Range | -40 to 110 °C |
| Thermal Resistance, Junction to Case | 22 °C/W |
| Peak On-State Voltage | 18 Volts |
They are designed primarily for industrial and consumer applications for full wave control of ac loads such as appliance controls, heater controls, and motor controls.
The maximum operating junction temperature is 110°C.
The peak non-repetitive surge current is 80 Amps for one full cycle at 60 Hz.
