BRT23F-X007

Overview

The BRT23F-X007 is a single-channel phototriac output optocoupler manufactured by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. It features zero-crossing detection for triac triggering applications. The device provides an isolation voltage of 5300 Vrms and supports a maximum repetitive peak off-state voltage of 800 V. Key electrical parameters include a nominal input trigger current of 1.2 mA, a maximum on-state current of 0.3 A, and a forward current of 60 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to 100 °C and is housed in a DIP-6 package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated zero-crossing detection circuitry for precise AC load switching
• High input sensitivity with low trigger current requirements
• Robust insulation capability suitable for high-voltage isolation

Applications

• Solid-state relays (SSRs)
• AC motor control circuits
• Lighting dimmer switches

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix X007 against the official Vishay datasheet to confirm packaging and compliance details. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid RoHS documentation. Cross-reference the part number with the manufacturer's latest release notes to avoid obsolete stock or alternative pin configurations.

Selection Notes

Select this component when zero-crossing switching is required to minimize electromagnetic interference and inrush currents. Compare the 800 V blocking voltage against system line voltages. Evaluate the 0.3 A on-state current limit against the load requirements. Consider the DIP-6 package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management in enclosed designs.

Part Context

This device belongs to the BRT21/22/23 family of Vishay phototriac output optocouplers. These components are designed for general-purpose AC power switching. The BRT23 variant specifically integrates zero-crossing logic, distinguishing it from standard triac outputs that switch immediately upon signal receipt.

Replacement Considerations

Check Vishay datasheets for BRT21F or BRT22F if zero-crossing functionality is not required. Verify pin compatibility before substituting with other manufacturers' zero-crossing triac optocouplers.
