Description
The FODM306X and FODM308X series consist of an
infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a monolithic
silicon detector performing the function of a zero voltage
crossing bilateral triac driver, and is housed in a compact
4-pin mini-flat package. The lead pitch is 2.54mm. They
are designed for use with a triac in the interface of logic
systems to equipment powered from 115/240 VAC lines,
such as solid state relays, industrial controls, motors,
solenoids and consumer appliances.
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be
operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended.
In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability.
The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only.

1. The mercury wetted relay provides a high speed repeated
pulse to the D.U.T.
2. 100x scope probes are used, to allow high speeds and
voltages.
3. The worst-case condition for static dv/dt is established by
triggering the D.U.T. with a normal LED input current, then
removing the current. The variable RTEST allows the dv/dt
to be gradually increased until the D.U.T. continues to trigger
in response to the applied voltage pulse, even after the LED
current has been removed. The dv/dt is then decreased until
the D.U.T. stops triggering. tRC is measured at this point
and recorded.

Determining the Power Rating of the Series Resistors Used in a Zero-Cross
Opto-TRIAC Driver Application
The following will present the calculations for
determining the power dissipation of the current
limiting resistors found in an opto-TRIAC driver
interface.
Figure 10 shows a typical circuit to drive a sensitive
gate four quadrant power TRIAC. This figure provides
typical resistor values for a zero line cross detecting
opto-TRIAC when operated from a mains voltage of
20V to 240V. The wattage rating for each resistor is
not given because their dissipation is dependent upon
characteristics of the power TRIAC being driven.
Recall that the opto-TRIAC is used to trigger a four
quadrant power TRIAC. Please note that these optoTRIACs are not recommended for driving
“snubberless” three quadrant power TRIACs.
Under normal operation, the opto-TRIAC will fire when
the mains voltage is lower than the minimum inhibit
trigger voltage, and the LED is driven at a current
greater than the maximum LED trigger current. As an
example for the FODM3063, the LED trigger current
should be greater than 5mA, and the mains voltage is
less than 10V peak. The inhibit voltage has a typical
range of 10V minimum and 20V maximum. This
means that if a sufficient LED current is flowing when
the mains voltage is less than 10V, the device will fire.
If a trigger appears between 10V and 20V, the device
may fire. If the trigger occurs after the mains voltage
has reached 20Vpeak, the device will not fire.
The power dissipated from resistors placed in series
with the opto-TRIAC and the gate of the power TRIAC
is much smaller than one would expect. These current
handling components only conduct current when the
mains voltage is less than the maximum inhibit
voltage. If the opto-TRIAC is triggered when the mains
voltage is greater than the inhibit voltage, only the
TRIAC leakage current will flow. The power dissipation
in a 360Ω resistor shown in Figure 10 is the product of
the resistance (360Ω) times the square of the current
sum of main TRIAC’s gate current plus the current
flowing gate to the MT2 resistor connection (330Ω).
This power calculation is further modified by the duty
factor of the duration for this current flow. The duty
factor is the ratio of the turn-on time of the main TRIAC
to the sine of the single cycle time. Assuming a main
TRIAC turn-on time of 50µs and a 60Hz mains
voltage, the duty cycle is approximately 0.6%.
The opto-TRIAC only conducts current while triggering
the main TRIAC. Once the main TRIAC fires, its onstate voltage is typically lower than the on-state
sustaining voltage of the opto-TRIAC. Thus, once the
main TRIAC fires, the opto-TRIAC is often shunted off.
This situation results in very low power dissipation for
both the 360Ω and 330Ω resistors, when driving a
traditional four quadrant power TRIAC.
If a three quadrant “snubberless” TRIAC is driven by
the opto-TRIAC, the calculations are different. When
the main power TRIAC is driving a high power factor
(resistive) load, it shuts off during the fourth quadrant.
Typical circuit for use when hot line switching of 240VAC
is required. In this circuit the “hot” side of the line is
switched and the load connected to the cold or neutral
side. The load may be connected to either the neutral or
hot line.
R
is calculated so that IF is equal to the rated IFT of the
in
part, 5mA for the FODM3063/83 and 10mA for the
FODM3062/82. The 39Ω resistor and 0.01µF capacitor are
for snubbing of the triac and may or may not be necessary
depending upon the particular triac and load used.
If sufficient holding current is still flowing through the
opto-TRIAC, the opto-TRIAC will turn-on and attempt
to carry the power TRIACs load. This situation typically
causes the opto-TRIAC to operate beyond its
maximum current rating, and product and resistor
failures typically result. For this reason, using an optoTRIAC to drive a three quadrant “snubberless” power
TRIAC is not recommended.

*x 360Ω x 0.6% = 1.3mW
A 1/4 watt resistor is more than adequate for both the
360Ω and 330Ω resistors.
The real power in the snubber resistor is based upon
the integral of the power transient present when the
load commutes. A fast commuting transient may allow
a peak current of 4A to 8A in the snubbing filter.
For best results, the capacitor should be a nonpolarized AC unit with a low ESR. The 39Ω series
resistor sets a time constant and limits the peak
current. For a resistive load with a power factor near
unity, the commutating transients will be small. This
results in a very small peak current given the 0.01µF
capacitor’s reactance. Normally, for factional horsepower reactive loads, the resistor found in the snubber
circuit will have a power rating from 1/2W to 2W. The
resistor should be a low inductance type to adequately
filter the high frequency transients.
