With a minimum static dV/dt of 10 kV/µs, the output triac resists false turn-on from fast transients on the AC line — the kind of noise that comes from motor drives, solenoid valve switching, or nearby relay coils. The 60 µs turn-on time is fast enough for most industrial switching tasks but slow enough to avoid ringing on capacitive loads. ## Isolation and certification for safety audits The part carries cUL, FIMKO, UL, and VDE approvals — meaning it is accepted in both North American (UL) and European (VDE, FIMKO) safety certification schemes. This avoids a last-minute certification surprise during equipment export. The 5000 Vrms isolation rating supports reinforced isolation for mains-connected circuits, provided the PCB creepage and clearance meet the relevant standard. ## Package and mounting for reflow assembly Housed in a 6-SMD Gull Wing package, the FOD4208SDV is compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles. The surface-mount footprint saves board space compared to a through-hole DIP alternative. Available in Tape & Reel or Cut Tape, the part suits both high-volume pick-and-place and prototype builds. ROHS3 compliant, so it meets current environmental regulations for European and North American markets. ## Trigger current and hold current for driver design The LED trigger current (Ift) is 2 mA max — low enough to be driven directly by a 3.3 V or 5 V logic output through a series resistor, without needing a separate transistor driver. Once triggered, the triac latches on until the load current drops below the 500 µA hold current (Ih). This means the LED can be turned off after the triac fires, reducing total LED power dissipation. The forward voltage (Vf) is 1.28 V typical at the LED, and the maximum DC forward current is 30 mA — standard values that fit common optocoupler drive circuits.","metaTitle":"FOD4208SDV onsemi Optoisolator Triac Output 5000 Vrms 6-SMD","metaDescription":"FOD4208SDV active-production optoisolator: Triac output, 5000 Vrms isolation, 800 V off-state, 10 kV/µs dV/dt, -55°C to 100°C. cUL/FIMKO/UL/VDE.

The 800 V off-state voltage covers 480 V AC line-to-line with margin, and is more than sufficient for 240 V AC single-phase loads.

The FOD4208SDV differs only in its packaging format (Tape & Reel / Cut Tape vs. the FOD4208SD's options).
