Product details
Overview
VO3053-X006 from Vishay Semiconductors is a non-zero crossing phototriac optocoupler with 600 V blocking voltage, 5 mA maximum LED trigger current (IFT), and 1500 V/μs minimum dV/dt immunity-designed for AC load switching in household appliance control circuits where galvanic isolation and high noise immunity are required.
For engineers reviewing the VO3053-X006 datasheet, VO3053-X006 pinout, VO3053-X006 application, or VO3053-X006 equivalent, this device serves as a safety-certified, DIP-6 packaged triac driver for off-line AC control with UL 1577 and VDE 0884 (option 1) compliance, critical for HVAC, lighting, and motor drive designs requiring reliable zero-crossing–independent switching.
Technical Context
The VO3053-X006 integrates a GaAs infrared LED optically coupled to a monolithic photosensitive triac die, enabling direct AC load control without external zero-crossing detection circuitry. Its non-zero crossing architecture allows phase-angle dimming and precise timing of triac conduction onset.
It delivers 100 mA RMS on-state current with ≤3 V peak on-state voltage (VTM) at 100 mA, and maintains ≥10¹² Ω isolation resistance at 25 °C. The 4420 VRMS rated withstand isolation voltage supports reinforced insulation per IEC/UL safety standards in 240 VAC systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Blocking Voltage (VDRM) | 600 V - Enables safe control of 240 VAC mains with >2× safety margin and compatibility with 380 V line applications. |
| LED Trigger Current (IFT) | ≤5 mA - Low input drive requirement simplifies microcontroller GPIO interfacing without external amplification. |
| Critical dV/dt (dV/dtcr) | 1500 V/μs min - Prevents false triggering under fast transient noise common in industrial AC environments. |
| Isolation Voltage (VISO) | 4420 VRMS (1 min) - Meets reinforced insulation requirements for UL 1577 and DIN EN 60747-5-5 safety certification. |
| Package | DIP-6, 400 mil, Option 6 - Through-hole footprint with ≥8 mm creepage/clearance for high-voltage PCB layout compliance. |
| On-State RMS Current (IT(RMS)) | 100 mA - Supports direct driving of small AC solenoids, valves, and fan motors without external triac buffering. |
| Holding Current (IH) | 200 μA typical - Ensures stable latching after turn-on and prevents premature dropout during low-load AC cycles. |
Pinout & Package
VO3053-X006 uses a 6-pin dual-in-line package (DIP-6, 400 mil, Option 6) with 2.54 mm pitch, 7.62 mm row spacing, and ≥8 mm creepage/clearance for reinforced insulation. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; pins 3 and 4 are internally unconnected (NC).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (A) | Anode | LED anode input - Connect to MCU GPIO or driver stage through current-limiting resistor. |
| 2 (C) | Cathode | LED cathode - Ground reference for input side; defines LED forward current path. |
| 3 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected - Must remain floating; no PCB trace or component connection. |
| 4 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected - Must remain floating; no PCB trace or component connection. |
| 5 (MT1) | Main Terminal 1 | Triac output terminal - Connects to AC load return path or neutral side in standard triac configuration. |
| 6 (MT2) | Main Terminal 2 | Triac output terminal - Connects to AC line (hot) or load high-side; carries full switched AC current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phototriac driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MOC3053M | Same 5 mA IFT and 600 V VDRM, but lower dV/dt (1000 V/μs min) and no VDE certification option. | Lacks VDE 0884 approval; suitable only for UL-only markets with less stringent transient immunity needs. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs VDE compliance and 1500 V/μs dV/dt is not required. |
| IL420 | Zero-crossing output, 10 mA IFT, 400 V VDRM, SO-6 package - not pin-compatible. | Only supports zero-crossing switching; unsuitable for phase-control dimming or fast-response solenoid actuation. | Choose only for simple on/off AC loads where timing precision and dV/dt immunity are secondary to low-cost SMD assembly. |
Compared with MOC3053M and IL420, VO3053-X006 uniquely combines VDE-certifiable reinforced insulation, 1500 V/μs dV/dt immunity, and non-zero crossing operation in a through-hole DIP-6 package-making it the only option among the three qualified for safety-critical, phase-controlled 240 VAC applications in EU and North American household equipment.

FAQ
What is the maximum AC voltage the VO3053-X006 can safely switch?
The VO3053-X006 has a 600 V blocking voltage (VDRM), permitting reliable control of 240 VAC mains with over two times safety margin. It is rated for use in systems with peak line voltages up to 380 V, making VO3053-X006 suitable for global 230/240 VAC applications including EU, UK, and APAC regions.
Does VO3053-X006 require a zero-crossing detection circuit?
No. VO3053-X006 is a non-zero crossing phototriac, meaning it triggers conduction immediately upon LED activation-regardless of AC phase angle. This eliminates the need for external zero-crossing detectors and enables phase-angle dimming, precise timing control, and fast-response solenoid actuation without delay.
What safety certifications does VO3053-X006 hold?
VO3053-X006 is certified to UL 1577 (4420 VRMS, 1 minute) and cUL. With Option 1, it also meets DIN EN 60747-5-5 (VDE 0884) for reinforced insulation. Its ≥8 mm creepage and clearance distances comply with IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60335 for household and office equipment.
Can VO3053-X006 drive a triac directly, or does it need an external buffer?
VO3053-X006 integrates a monolithic photosensitive triac capable of delivering 100 mA RMS on-state current. It can directly drive small-to-medium AC loads like fans, solenoids, and lamps. For higher-current loads (>100 mA), VO3053-X006 is typically used to trigger a larger external triac-acting as a fully isolated gate driver.
What is the pin 1 identification method for VO3053-X006?
VO3053-X006 uses standard DIP-6 packaging with pin 1 identified by a molded notch at the top edge of the package body or a printed dot adjacent to pin 1. The pinout follows the sequence: 1(A), 2(C), 3(NC), 4(NC), 5(MT1), 6(MT2), matching the mechanical drawing in Vishay Document 83749 Rev. 2.5.
