BRT23M-X007T

Overview

The BRT23M-X007T is a single-channel phototriac output optocoupler manufactured by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. It features an 800V blocking voltage and 1A RMS on-state current capability, housed in a 6-DIP package. The device provides 5300Vrms isolation voltage for robust circuit protection. It operates without a zero-crossing detection circuit, enabling phase-angle control applications. The component supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and complies with UL and cUL safety standards.

Feature Summary

• High-voltage triac output capable of switching up to 800V
• Strong load handling with 1A RMS on-state current rating
• Robust electrical isolation rated at 5300Vrms
• Zero-crossing free design suitable for precise phase-control

Applications

• Solid-state relays (SSRs)
• AC motor speed controllers
• Lighting dimmer circuits
• Heater control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix X007T against official Vishay documentation to confirm packaging and reel specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required DIP-6 form factor and lead configuration. Cross-reference safety certifications such as UL and cUL with the target application's regulatory requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when phase-angle control is required rather than zero-crossing switching. The 800V rating suits general AC mains applications, while the 1A current limit defines the maximum load capacity. Consider the 6-DIP package dimensions for PCB layout constraints and verify thermal management needs for continuous 1A operation within the specified temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BRT23 series of Vishay’s high-voltage phototriac optocouplers. The series is designed for industrial AC power switching where galvanic isolation is critical. The BRT23M variant specifically denotes the surface mount or specific tape-and-reel configuration depending on the exact datasheet revision, distinguishing it from through-hole DIP-only versions.
