Basic Triac Driver Circuit
MOC3051 are very immune to static dv/dt which allows
snubberless operations in all applications where external
generated noise in the AC line is below its guaranteed dv/dt
withstand capability. For these applications a snubber circuit
is not necessary when a noise insensitive power triac is
used. Figure 11 shows the circuit diagram. The triac driver is
directly connected to the triac main terminal 2 and a series
Resistor R which limits the current to the triac driver. Current
limiting resistor R must have a minimum value which restricts
the current into the driver to maximum 1A.
R = Vp AC/I TM max rep. = Vp AC/1A
the triac driver is very small because the power triac carries
the load current as soon as the current through driver and
current limiting resistor reaches the trigger current of the
power triac. The switching transition times for the driver is
only one micro second and for power triacs typical four micro
seconds.
Triac Driver Circuit for Noisy Environments
to exceed the power triacs and triac drivers maximum ratings
a snubber circuit as shown in Figure 12 is recommended.
Fast transients are slowed by the R–C snubber and exces-
sive amplitudes are clipped by the Metal Oxide Varistor MOV.

noise test a modified snubber network as shown in Figure 13
is recommended.
