NTE5655 thru NTE5657 TRIAC – 800mA Sensitive Gate Description: The NTE5655 through NTE5657 are 800mA sensitive gate TRIACs in a TO92 type package designed to be driven directly with IC and MOS devices. These TRIACs feature void–free glass passivated chips. These NTE devices are bi–directional triode thyristors and may be switched from off–state to conduction for either polarity of applied voltage with positive or negative gate trigger current. They are designed for control applications in lighting, heating, cooling and static switching relays.
