For applications where the SLB 0586 A has been used, it is possible to replace the SLB 0586 A by the SLB 0587 if the appropriate external wiring in accordance with the data sheet is maintained.
The SLB 0587 is a CMOS IC and the advanced version of the version SLB 0586 A. The IC permits the design of digital electronic phase controls for operation of incandes-cent lamps, low-voltage halogen lamps with in-series connected transformers, and universal as well as split-pole motors.
