What is a DIAC?

A DIAC is a bidirectional device that can conduct current in both directions when the voltage exceeds a certain threshold. It is a type of diode used primarily in AC applications, such as triggering TRIACs or controlling power flow in circuits. It has a low breakdown voltage and exhibits an abrupt turn-on feature, making it ideal for use in switching and regulation circuits.


Features of Our DIACs:

  1. Bidirectional Operation: DIACs can conduct in both directions, making them suitable for AC circuits where current alternates.
  2. Low Breakdown Voltage: Typically characterized by a low breakover voltage, which enables the DIAC to turn on easily.
  3. High Sensitivity: The device exhibits quick switching characteristics, allowing for precise control in AC applications.
  4. Durable and Reliable: Built to last, our DIACs are designed to perform well in demanding environments with long lifespans.
  5. Fast Switching: Capable of rapid switching between conducting and non-conducting states, ideal for triggering other components like TRIACs.
  6. Compact Size: Available in a variety of sizes that make them suitable for different applications without taking up significant space.
  7. Energy Efficient: DIACs consume minimal energy, making them highly effective for low-power applications.
  8. Temperature Stability: Designed to operate effectively across a wide range of temperatures, ensuring stable performance in various conditions.

Applications of DIACs:

  1. Light Dimmers: DIACs are commonly used in combination with TRIACs to adjust the brightness of lights by controlling the power supplied to the bulb.
  2. Motor Speed Controls: They are often used in circuits that adjust the speed of motors by regulating the current.
  3. Overvoltage Protection: DIACs are used in circuits to protect components from overvoltage conditions by switching off power when the voltage exceeds a certain threshold.
  4. Phase Control: DIACs are used in phase control circuits, especially in applications like heating systems and light dimming circuits.
  5. Timing Circuits: In combination with other devices, DIACs can be used to create accurate timing or delay circuits.
