BRT12H-X007

Overview

The BRT12H-X007 is a single-channel phototriac output optocoupler manufactured by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. It features an infrared emitting diode coupled to a triac detector, providing electrical isolation with a rated insulation voltage of 5300 Vrms. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C and utilizes a 6-SMD, Gull Wing surface-mount package. Key electrical specifications include a maximum DC forward current (If) of 20 mA, an on-state current capability of 300 mA, and an off-state voltage rating of 800 V.

Feature Summary

• Non-zero crossing triac output configuration for precise phase control applications
• High isolation voltage rating of 5300 Vrms for robust circuit protection
• Surface-mount 6-SMD Gull Wing package design for automated assembly

Applications

• Solid-state relays requiring non-zero switching
• AC motor speed control circuits
• Lighting dimmer systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix X007 corresponds to the 6-SMD Gull Wing surface-mount package variant rather than through-hole DIP versions. Confirm that the non-zero crossing characteristic aligns with the target application requirements, as zero-crossing variants exist within the same family. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if applicable to the manufacturing region.

Selection Notes

Select this component when non-zero crossing operation is required for AC load control. The 800 V off-state voltage supports high-voltage AC mains applications. The 300 mA on-state current limits suitability to low-power loads or driver stages. Surface-mount packaging necessitates appropriate PCB footprint design for thermal management and mechanical stability.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BRT12 series of phototriac output optocouplers from Vishay. The series provides galvanic isolation between control circuits and AC power stages. The BRT12H variant specifically denotes the non-zero crossing output type, distinguishing it from zero-crossing counterparts like the BTA12 series.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 6-SMD Gull Wing package, 5300 Vrms isolation, and non-zero crossing triac output characteristics. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
