MOC3083 Zero Cross Optoisolator Optocoupler IC (Triac Driver DIP-6)
The MOC3083 is a zero-cross optoisolator optocoupler designed to safely isolate low-voltage control circuits from high-voltage AC loads. It integrates an infrared LED and a zero-crossing TRIAC driver output, enabling reliable triggering of external TRIACs with minimal electrical noise and reduced electromagnetic interference (EMI). The MOC3083 is commonly used in solid-state relays, AC lamp dimmers, home appliances, industrial automation, and microcontroller-based AC load control systems. It is compatible with Arduino, ESP32, STM32, Raspberry Pi, PLCs, and other control platforms through appropriate interface circuitry.
