MOC 3041 ON

TheMOC3041is a Zero-Crossing TRIAC driven Optocoupler. Meaning it has a Infra-red Light Emitting Diode (LED) inside it coupled with a TRIAC. When the LED is triggered the TRIAC is also turned on.An opto-isolator like MOC3041 is normally used to control another external switching device like a TRIAC, MOSFET or SCR which in turn will control an AC or DC load. The TRIAC present inside the MOC3041 can provide upto 1A peak current which is high enough to trigger an external switch. The TRIAC by itself should not be used to switch loads without an external switch.
