BCR2AS-14A#B00

Overview

The BCR2AS-14A#B00 is a standard triac manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, designed for general-purpose AC control applications. It features a maximum on-state current of 2 A and a blocking voltage rating of 600 V. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +150°C and utilizes a TO-92 package for through-hole mounting. Key electrical parameters include a gate trigger voltage of 1.5 V and a gate trigger current of 30 mA.

Feature Summary

• Standard triac configuration suitable for low-power AC switching
• Robust thermal performance with high junction temperature capability
• Through-hole mounting for reliable PCB integration

Applications

• Small motor control circuits
• Heater control systems
• General-purpose AC load switching

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Renesas distributors or certified supply chain partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for recent Product Change Notifications (PCN) regarding manufacturing site updates. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring moderate current handling up to 2 A RMS. Consider the TO-92 package constraints for thermal dissipation in enclosed environments. Verify that the 600 V blocking voltage aligns with the peak line voltage of the target AC system.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BCR series of thyristors from Renesas Electronics. The series provides various current ratings and voltage options for different power levels. The BCR2AS variant specifically targets low-power consumer and industrial AC control needs.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same Renesas BCR family. Verify equivalent electrical specifications such as holding current and dv/dt ratings when considering cross-manufacturer substitutes.
