triac

A triac is a three-terminal electronic component that acts as a bidirectional semiconductor switch. It is primarily used in power control applications, such as light dimmers and motor speed controllers. Triacs are also commonly used in solid-state relays and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). Checking a triac is a simple process that can be performed with…

A triac is a three-terminal electronic component that can conduct current in either direction. This makes them useful in a variety of applications, including power control, motor control, and lighting. Triacs are relatively simple to test, and there are a few different methods that can be used. One common method is to use a multimeter….
