Description
The ACS108-8SUN belongs to the AC line switch range (built with A.S.D.® technology).This high performance switch can control a load of up to 0.8 A. The ACS108-8SUN switch includes an overvoltage crowbar structure to absorb the overvoltage energy and a gate level shifter driver to separate the digital controller from the main switch. It is triggered with a negative gate current flowing out of the gate pin.

Features
■ Less footprint area than SOT-223 (saves PCB)
■ ECOPACK® 2 compliant component
■ Thinner option versus SOT-223 (1.1 mm max. thickness)
■ Enables equipment to meet IEC 61000-4-5
■ High noise immunity against static dV/dt and IEC 61000-4-4 burst
■ Overvoltage protection by crowbar technology
■ Needs no external protection snubber or varistor
■ Reduces component count by up to 80% and Interfaces directly with the micro-controller
■ VCL gives headroom before clamping then crowbar action
■ Common package tab connection supports connection of several alternating current switches on the same cooling pad

Applications
■ Alternating current on/off static switching in appliances and industrial control systems
■ Drive of low power high inductive or resistive loads like: – relay, valve, solenoid, dispenser, – pump, fan, low power motor, door lock, – lamp
