DB3 is a three-layer, two-junction diode known as a DIAC (diode for alternating current). It is commonly used in triggering and control circuits for thyristors and triacs, among other applications. It has a breakdown voltage range of 28-32V.
If you are looking for a replacement for the DB3 diode, there are several other DIACs that you could consider, depending on your specific requirements. Some possible replacements include the following:
DB4: The DB4 is a DIAC with a breakdown voltage range of 30-36V. It has a slightly higher voltage rating than the DB3, but is otherwise similar in its characteristics.
DB6: The DB6 is a DIAC with a breakdown voltage range of 60-70V. It has a much higher voltage rating than the DB3, and is suitable for use in higher voltage applications.
ST2: The ST2 is a DIAC with a breakdown voltage range of 28-32V, identical to that of the DB3. It is a direct replacement for the DB3, with similar characteristics and performance.
Q4004L4: The Q4004L4 is a DIAC with a breakdown voltage range of 28-36V. It has a slightly higher maximum breakdown voltage than the DB3, but is otherwise similar in its characteristics.
