Description
The FOD420, FOD4208, FOD4216 and FOD4218
devices consist of an infrared emitting diode coupled to a
hybrid random phase triac formed with two inverse
parallel SCRs which form the triac function capable of
driving discrete triacs. The FOD4216 and FOD4218
utilize a high efficiency infrared emitting diode which
offers an improved trigger sensitivity. These devices are
housed in a standard 6-pin dual in-line (DIP) package.
