A triac is a high voltage AC solid state relay it is switched on by applying a dc at the gate it can't be used to switch DC because it stay on while current is flowing even when the gate is low but with AC the current stop flowing when the cycle go zero and will switch of if the gate is low
Triac-Lautrait's population is 454.
The diac and the triac are used to control the AC lines. The difference is that triac are bigger than diac.
The area of Triac-Lautrait is 6,400,000.0 square meters.
Triac is Three Layered Device . Emitter ,Collector and Gate
triac act as a ac contactor
TRIAC is the word derrived from the 2 words TRIode and AC.
a circuit diagram consist of diac&triac
How_is_triac_operated
A gateless triac is a diac. It is often used in the gate circuit of a triac to balance out the firing voltage for the triac in both quadrants, so that there is no DC offset in the controlled load. This is because, while the gate trigger voltage is often asymmetric in the two quadrants, the M1/M2 breakdown voltage is often symmetric.

An SCR is a rectifier and can only conduct in one direction (half wave).A Triac can conduct in both directions (full wave).
