Overview
The BCR5AM-12LB#B01 is a standard triac manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, designed for general-purpose AC power control applications. It features a through-hole TO-220-3 package and supports a maximum RMS on-state current of 5 A. The device is rated for a blocking voltage of 600 V in both directions. Key electrical specifications include a maximum gate trigger voltage of 1.5 V and a maximum gate trigger current of 20 mA. It can withstand a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 50 A at 60 Hz. The component is classified as a single-phase thyristor with glass passivation.
Feature Summary
- Standard triac configuration suitable for AC switching tasks
- Robust thermal management via TO-220-3 through-hole mounting
- High surge current capability for transient protection
- Glass passivated junction for environmental stability
Applications
- General purpose AC load switching

Procurement Notes
Verify the obsolete status of this component before integration into new designs. Confirm availability through authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers like Rochester Electronics. Ensure the specific suffix #B01 matches the required packaging and traceability standards. Request original manufacturer documentation to validate authenticity and performance parameters against the datasheet.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a 5 A RMS current rating and 600 V blocking voltage are required in a TO-220-3 package. Consider the 20 mA gate trigger current for driver compatibility. Evaluate thermal dissipation requirements for the intended application environment. Compare alternative triacs if higher current ratings or different package styles are needed for space constraints.
Part Context
This part belongs to the Renesas BCR series of triacs, which are widely used in industrial and consumer electronics for AC power regulation. The BCR5AM variant specifically targets applications requiring moderate current handling with reliable switching characteristics. The series is known for its robust construction and consistent performance across various temperature ranges.
Replacement Considerations
Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided source data. Engineers should consult official Renesas replacement guides or equivalent generic triac datasheets for pin-compatible alternatives with matching electrical specifications.
