The principle used in opto-coupler is, MOC s are promptly available in integrated circuit form and dont require very complex circuitry to make them work. Simply give a small pulse at the right time to the LED in the package. The light produced by the LED activates the light sensitive properties of the diac and the power is switched on. The isolation between the low power and high power circuits in these optically connected devices is typically few thousand volts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures of MOC3020:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e400 V Photo-TRIAC Driver Output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGallium-Arsenide-Diode infrared source and optically-coupled silicon triac driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh isolation 500 Vpeak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput driver designed for 220 Vac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard 6-terminal plastic DIP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectly interchangeable with Motorola MOC3020, MOC3021 and MOC3022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTypical applications of MOC3020:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolenoid\/valve controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamp ballasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterfacing microprocessors to 115\/240 Vac peripherals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncandescent lamp dimmers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eApplication of MOC3020:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe circuit shown below is a typical circuit used for AC load control from microcontroller, one LED can be connected in series with MOC3021, LED to indicate when high is given from micro controller such that we can know that current is flowing in internal LED of the opto-coupler.The idea is to use a power lamp whose activation requires mains AC as opposed to a DC voltage. That s way, the mains AC power that we are trying to switch the lamp and no external power supply is required. To switch the AC current to the lamp, we have to use an opto-coupled triac, lamp and a diac is shown in circuit below. A triac is said to be as an AC controlled switch. It has three terminals M1, M2 and gate. A TRIAC, lamp load and a supply voltage are connected in series. When supply is ON at positive cycle then the current flows through lamp, resistors, diac, and gate and reaches the supply and then only lamp glows for that half cycle directly through the M2 and M1 terminal of the triac. In negative half cycle the same thing repeats. Thus the lamp glows in both the cycles in a controlled manner depending upon the triggering pulses at the opto isolator as seen on the graph below. If this is given to a motor instead of lamp the power is controlled resulting in speed control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digilog Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43962403356737,"sku":"b643,L20,Th10","price":40.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/2805\/1777\/files\/MOC3021-Optoisolator.jpg?v=1779580513","url":"https:\/\/stem.pk\/products\/moc3021-moc3020-thyristor-driver","provider":"stem.pk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
