DESCRIPTION
The VOT8123A consists of a GaAs IRLED optically coupled
to a photosensitive TRIAC packaged in a DIP-6 package.
The VOT8123A isolates low-voltage logic from 120 VAC,
240 VAC, and 380 VAC lines to control resistive, inductive, or
capacitive loads including motors, solenoids, high current
thyristors or TRIAC and relays.
FEATURES
• High isolation distance on output
• High static dV/dt 1000 V/μs
• High input sensitivity IFT = 10 mA
• 100 mA on-state current
• 800 V peak off-state blocking voltage
• Isolation rated voltage 5000 VRMS
• Material categorization:
for definitions of compliance please see
www.vishay.com/doc?99912
APPLICATIONS
• Power TRIAC driver in solid-state relays
• 3-phase AC equipment
• Motor control
• Industrial control

Note
• Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. Functional operation of the device is not
implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the operational sections of this document. Exposure to absolute
maximum ratings for extended periods of the time can adversely affect reliability.
This phototriac should not be used to drive a load directly. It is intended to be a trigger device only
