NTE5620
TRIAC 800VRM, 8A, TO220 Full Pack
The NTE5620 TRIAC is designed primarily for full–wave AC control applications, such as light dimmers, heater controls, motor controls, and power supplies; or wherever full wave silicon gate controlled solid state devices are needed. TRIAC type thyristors switch from a blocking to a conducting state for either polarity of applied voltage with positive or negative gate triggering.
