Supply Chain & Allocation Reality:

The MOC3021 is the little six-pin bridge between logic and mains in dimmers, speed controls, heater regulators and appliance boards: an LED driving a light-triggered triac, packaged with 7500V isolation. The family divides on two axes buyers conflate at their cost. Phase-control circuits (dimmers, motor speed) need the random-phase parts (MOC302x); on/off switching of resistive loads wants the zero-cross parts (MOC304x) so switching happens near the mains zero to tame inrush and EMI. And within each family, only the LED trigger current differs across the ladder (30 / 15 / 10 / 5mA from 3020 to 3023) - a substitution that ignores the trigger grade fails only on cold boards and marginal drive circuits.

Same Function, Tighter Trigger

Shenzhen Spot Stock (24-48h Dispatch)

Electrical & Core Specs:

Random-phase optotriac identical to the MOC3021 but triggering at 5mA LED current instead of 15mA - the sensitive end of the ladder (3020 is 30mA, 3022 is 10mA).

400V peak blocking, the 240V-AC class; 7500V isolation common to the family.

Compatibility & Drop-In Notes: The ladder direction to remember: a more sensitive trigger (3023) substitutes anywhere a 3021 worked, because the circuit was designed to deliver at least 15mA. Going the other way (15mA part where a 5mA grade was specified) asks the driving logic for three times the current it was designed to give - it may pass on the bench and fail cold.
Package & Solder Footprint: DIP-6 standard optotriac pinout, 1:1 with the family.

The Zero-Cross Sibling - Different Job

Shenzhen Spot Stock (24-48h Dispatch)

Electrical & Core Specs:

The zero-cross version: output inhibits until the mains voltage is near zero (5V typical, 20V max), producing full-wave on/off rather than phase control, with a far higher guaranteed dv/dt (1000V/us minimum) for noisy loads.

400V class; grades 3041/3042/3043 across 15/10/5mA trigger currents.

Compatibility & Drop-In Notes: The substitution rule: zero-cross parts do not do phase control - the detector caps the firing angle, so a dimmer fitted with one behaves as a switch that misses low-brightness settings. In the other direction, a random-phase part in an on/off circuit switches at arbitrary points: inrush and EMI come back, and resistive loads with high cold current suffer.
Package & Solder Footprint: Same DIP-6 pinout as the 302x family - the board cannot tell them apart.

Random-Phase at 600V

Shenzhen Spot Stock (24-48h Dispatch)

Electrical & Core Specs:

The higher-voltage random-phase member: 600V peak blocking for 380-415V-class lines and noisier mains, with the same phase-control behavior as the 3021.

600V peak against the 400V class of the 302x - the reason it exists.

Compatibility & Drop-In Notes: Match the voltage class to the actual line and transient environment: on 415V three-phase-derived circuits and noisy industrial mains, the 600V part is the honest choice and the 400V one is a countdown.
Package & Solder Footprint: DIP-6 standard pinout.

Zero-Cross at 600V

Shenzhen Spot Stock (24-48h Dispatch)

Electrical & Core Specs:

Zero-cross switching at 600V peak and 5mA trigger - the sensitive end of both ladders at once.

600V class for higher-voltage on/off switching.

Compatibility & Drop-In Notes: Same zero-cross rule applies: on/off duty only. Grade and voltage both matter - read both from the orderable number.
Package & Solder Footprint: DIP-6 standard pinout.
Shenzhen Warehouse Stock & MOQ: Stocked with the rest of the 30xx row.
Buyer & Quality Checklist for Sourcing Alternatives
  • Decide the duty before the part number: phase control (dimmers, speed) takes random-phase (MOC302x / MOC3052); on/off switching takes zero-cross (MOC304x / MOC3063). Mixing the duty and the detector is the most common appliance-board repair mistake.
  • Within a family only the trigger current changes: 30mA / 15mA / 10mA / 5mA across the 3020-3023 ladder (and 3041-3043). Substitute toward more sensitivity freely; toward less only with the drive current verified cold.
  • Voltage classes: 250V (301x), 400V (302x / 304x), 600V (3052 / 3063). Mains transients decide the class, not the nominal line voltage.
  • The optotriac drives a power triac - it never carries the load. In field failures, check the power triac and the snubber network before condemning the coupler: it is usually the messenger.
  • dv/dt ratings differ by an order of magnitude between the random-phase and zero-cross families: replacing a zero-cross part with a random-phase one in an inductive-load circuit invites false triggering.
  • Gate resistor sizing is per-grade: the resistor that fed 15mA of LED current wastes efficiency with a 5mA part and starves a 30mA part - match the letter to the circuit.
Frequently Asked Technical Questions

Q: Can MOC3041 replace MOC3021?

A: Functionally it triggers and isolates, but the behavior changes: the 3041 is zero-cross, so phase-control circuits (dimmers) lose their firing-angle control and act as on/off switches. Match the family to the duty first; the pinout will agree either way.

Q: What do the numbers after MOC30 mean?

A: The LED trigger current grade: 3020 is 30mA, 3021 15mA, 3022 10mA, 3023 5mA; the 304x zero-cross series repeats the ladder. More-sensitive grades substitute upward; check drive current before substituting downward.

Q: Why does my dimmer only work at full brightness after a repair?

A: A zero-cross part (MOC304x) was likely fitted where a random-phase part (MOC302x) belonged - the zero-cross detector refuses to trigger at low conduction angles. Match the family letter: 302x for phase control.

Technical Details & Description

Triac driver for line-voltage loads without zero-cross delay

The MOC3023SR2M is a 1-channel triac-output optoisolator from onsemi with a 4170 Vrms isolation rating and a 400 V off-state voltage capability. The non-zero-crossing output means the internal triac fires immediately when the LED is pulsed — no wait for the next AC zero crossing. This makes it the right choice for phase-control dimming, random-turn-on switching, or any load where you need to start conducting mid-cycle.

LED drive margin and trigger current

A 3.3 V logic output driving through a 390 Ω series resistor delivers about 5.5 mA — enough to guarantee turn-on across temperature. The maximum continuous LED current is 60 mA, so there is headroom for higher drive if the MCU port can source it, but the 5 mA threshold is the design target.

The 6-SMD gull-wing package with surface-mount mounting keeps assembly compatible with standard reflow profiles.

Frequently asked questions

Is MOC3023SR2M compatible with 230 VAC loads?

Yes. The off-state voltage rating is 400 V, which comfortably exceeds the 325 V peak of a 230 VAC line. The 4170 Vrms isolation provides the safety barrier between the low-voltage control side and the mains side.

What is the difference between MOC3023 and MOC3022?

The primary difference is the LED trigger current (Ift) maximum: the MOC3023SR2M specifies 5 mA max, while the MOC3022SR2M specifies 10 mA max. The lower trigger current of the MOC3023 allows it to be driven by weaker logic outputs or higher-value series resistors.

What is the footprint of MOC3023SR2M?

The package is 6-SMD with gull-wing leads, supplier device package 6-SMD. The standard footprint matches a 6-pin DIP surface-mount pattern with 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) lead spacing. Confirm the land pattern against the onsemi datasheet for your specific PCB layout.
