, 12A,
High Commutation
Description:
The NTE56065 is a glass passivated, high commutation TRIAC in an isolated fullpack type package
designed for use in circuits where high static and dynamic dV/dt and high dI/dt can occur. This device
will commutate the full rated RMS current at the maximum rated junction temperature, without the aid
of a snubber.

Note 1. Although not recommended, offstate voltages up to 800V may be applied without damage,
but the TRIAC may switch to the onstate. The rateofrise of current should not exceed
