Im looking at two triacs one is 6A 400VRM TO-220 2N6343A other 6A 400 V TO-220 L4004L6
My simple question is What does VRM mean are both of these basicaly the same ? Im looking at a schematic that calls for the a Triac that is 6A 220 or 400
Should I just ignor the RM of the VRM.
Thanks
Usually their voltage ratings are listed as VDRM and VRRM.
VDRM = Peak Repetitive Forward Off State Voltage
VRRM = Peak Repetitive Reverse Off Stat Voltage
Most likely you are looking at the VDRM rating.
