Product details

The MOC3073M is a random-phase triac optoisolator from onsemi, designed to drive high-voltage triacs or directly switch AC loads in industrial and appliance controls. Its 800 V off-state voltage gives headroom for 240 VAC or 480 VAC line applications, while the minimum static dV/dt of 1 kV/µs prevents false turn-on from line transients or inductive load switching — a common failure point in motor and solenoid drives.

Isolation barrier and UL recognition — safety for mains-referenced circuits

With 4170 Vrms isolation and UL agency approval, this part meets reinforced insulation requirements for separating low-voltage control logic from hazardous mains voltage. The 1.18 V typical forward voltage and 6 mA maximum LED trigger current allow direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V logic outputs through a series resistor, keeping the BOM simple.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between MOC3073M and MOC3083M?

The MOC3083M includes a zero-crossing circuit, while the MOC3073M does not. The MOC3073M is a random-phase device, meaning it turns on immediately when triggered, regardless of the AC line voltage phase — suitable for phase-angle control or solid-state relay applications where switching at any point in the cycle is needed.

When sourcing MOC3073M, what is the closest functional second-source?

The MOC3073SVM is a surface-mount variant with the same electrical ratings — 800 V off-state, 1 kV/µs dV/dt, 4170 Vrms isolation — but in a surface-mount package. For a through-hole replacement, the MOC3020M offers a 400 V off-state rating and 30 mA LED trigger current, which is a different voltage class and trigger threshold, so verify the BOM position before substituting.
