Overview
The BCR5AM-12LB#C0G is a standard triac manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, designed for medium power applications. It features a non-insulated planar passivation construction housed in a TO-220AB package with three pins. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak off-state voltage of 600 V and an on-state RMS current rating of 5 A. It operates with a maximum gate trigger voltage of 1.5 V and a maximum gate trigger current of 20 mA. The component is rated for a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 50 A at 60 Hz.
Feature Summary
- Planar passivation technology ensures robust performance in medium power use cases.
- Non-insulated type design facilitates effective thermal management via the mounting surface.
- Standard triac configuration provides reliable switching for AC load control.
Applications
- General purpose AC load switching
- Solid state relay inputs
- Lighting control circuits
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific suffix #C0G against official Renesas documentation to confirm exact manufacturing lot or revision details, as suffixes can indicate packaging or material variations. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors, as stock levels fluctuate. Ensure the TO-220AB footprint matches the target PCB layout requirements before finalizing procurement orders.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a 600 V blocking voltage and 5 A continuous current capacity are required for AC phase control. The TO-220AB package is suitable for applications requiring direct heatsinking. Verify that the gate trigger characteristics align with the driving circuit's output capabilities. Consider thermal resistance limits based on the expected ambient temperature and duty cycle of the application.
Part Context
This part belongs to the BCR series of triacs from Renesas Electronics, historically derived from Mitsubishi Electric semiconductor assets. The series is characterized by planar passivation structures intended for general industrial and consumer AC power control applications. The BCR5AM variant specifically targets medium power requirements within this family lineup.
Replacement Considerations
Direct substitutes include the BCR5AM-12LB#B01 and BCR5AM-12LA#B00 from Renesas, which share identical electrical ratings and pinout configurations. Cross-manufacturer equivalents such as those from Powerex or Apollo Electron may be considered if electrical parameters match exactly. Always verify mechanical dimensions and thermal characteristics before substitution.
