Description
The MOC3081M, MOC3082M and MOC3083M devices consist of a GaAs infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a monolithic silicon detector performing the function of a zero voltage crossing bilateral triac driver.
They are designed for use with a discrete power triac in the interface of logic systems to equipment powered from 240 VAC lines, such as solid-state relays, industrial controls, motors, solenoids and consumer appliances, etc.

Features
■ Underwriters Laboratories (UL) recognized – file #E90700, Volume 2
■ VDE recognized – file #102497 – add option V (e.g., MOC3083VM)
■ Simplifies logic control of 240 VAC power
■ Zero voltage crossing
■ dv/dt of 1500V/µs typical, 600V/µs guaranteed
■ Compatible with Fairchild’s FKPF12N80 discrete power triac
