DIACs, SIDACs

DIACs (Diode for Alternating Current) and SIDACs (Silicon Diode for Alternating Current) are essential semiconductor devices widely used in electronic circuits for their efficient switching capabilities. These components facilitate precise control in various applications, making them invaluable for both industrial and consumer electronics. DIACs are characterised by their ability to conduct currents only after a specific breakdown voltage is reached, while SIDACs are designed to handle larger currents and voltages, providing robust performance. Together, they play a crucial role in managing power and ensuring the smooth operation of devices such as light dimmers, motor controllers, and voltage regulation systems.
