Product details

Triac output optoisolator for line-voltage switching

The FOD4208SD is an onsemi optoisolator with a Triac output, rated for 5000 Vrms isolation and 800 V off-state blocking, making it suitable for switching 240 VAC or 480 VAC loads with transient margin. With a 60 µs turn-on time and no zero-crossing circuit, it fires at any point in the AC cycle, enabling phase-angle dimming, soft-start, or random-fire control in industrial and appliance applications. The single-channel device comes in a 6-SMD gull-wing package for surface-mount reflow assembly, with approvals from cUL, FIMKO, and UL.

Parametric deep-dive: drive current, dV/dt, and temperature

The LED trigger current is 2 mA maximum, allowing direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V logic outputs without a buffer transistor — a practical advantage for microcontroller-based designs. Static dV/dt is a minimum of 10 kV/µs, providing immunity against fast voltage transients common in motor-drive, relay-coil, and solenoid circuits that could otherwise false-trigger a standard triac driver. Operating temperature spans -55°C to 100°C, covering outdoor telecom cabinets, motor control enclosures, and factory-floor equipment without derating concerns. Hold current is 500 µA typical, and forward voltage is 1.28 V typical at 30 mA maximum DC forward current, defining the LED drive budget.

Frequently asked questions

Is FOD4208SD a zero-crossing optoisolator?

No, it has no zero-crossing circuit, so the triac output fires at any point in the AC cycle, enabling phase-angle control or random-fire switching.

Can FOD4208SD be used to drive a triac directly?

The FOD4208SD itself contains a Triac output and can directly drive a load up to 800 V off-state. For higher current, it can drive an external power triac gate; the 2 mA LED trigger current and 500 µA hold current are compatible with standard triac gate drive requirements.
