The MOC3022 is a non–zero-cross (random phase) triac driver optoisolator designed to safely interface low-voltage control circuits (like Arduino, microcontrollers, logic ICs, PLCs) with high-voltage AC loads.
It contains an infrared LED optically coupled to a phototriac output, which triggers an external power triac.
Since the MOC3022 does not include zero-cross switching, it can trigger the triac at any point in the AC waveform, making it ideal for light dimming, motor speed control, heater regulation, and phase-angle controlled AC loads.
Compared to MOC3020 and MOC3021, the MOC3022 offers higher sensitivity, requiring less LED current to activate the output—useful for low-power microcontroller pins.
