For what ?

There have been mentioned both on/off, phase control and other
kind of power control. And they come in a number of
different versions, bith with and without z-c logic, which
makes them suitable for different tasks.

And, I dont think the SSR is a very clever name anyway, *any*
triac (or FET or IGBT) could be used as a SSR, it depends on
the control logic and how they are connected. For the Sharp
modules, I think "opto-Triac" is a better name. The SSR name
i better for the FET based modules.

Now, the Sharp modules are quite nice, I'd like to use
them myself if I just could find a distributor in Europe
(that has more then just 3 or 4 of them...).
