TRIACs
TRIACs (Triode for Alternating Current) are bidirectional thyristors that switch AC current in both directions, widely used in light dimmers, fan speed controllers, AC motor soft starters, and heating element controllers. Key selection parameters include breakover voltage, on-state RMS current, gate trigger current, dI/dt, and dV/dt ratings.

TRIACs (Triode for Alternating Current) are bidirectional thyristors designed to switch and regulate alternating current (AC) power in both halves of the AC waveform. Operating as a solid-state AC switch controlled via a single gate terminal, TRIACs are the industry-standard component for light dimmers, fan speed controllers, AC motor soft starters, and heating element controls in household appliances and industrial systems.
Unlike standard SCRs which conduct in only one direction, TRIACs conduct bidirectionally, eliminating the need for parallel diode bridges in AC circuits. Selection parameters include peak off-state voltage (VDRM, typically 600V or 800V for offline grids), RMS on-state current (IT(RMS)), gate trigger current (IGT) across different operating quadrants, dV/dt commutating capability (which prevents false triggering under inductive loads), and package thermal ratings.
