BT136-600E/02,127

Overview

The BT136-600E/02,127 is a sensitive gate four quadrant triac manufactured by NXP USA Inc. It features a planar passivated structure for voltage ruggedness and reliability. The device has a repetitive peak off-state voltage of 600 V and an RMS on-state current rating of 4 A. It supports non-repetitive peak on-state currents up to 25 A. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. It utilizes a TO-220AB plastic package with three leads.

Feature Summary

• Sensitive gate design enables direct triggering from low power drivers and logic ICs
• Capable of triggering in all four quadrants for versatile phase control applications
• Planar passivated construction ensures high blocking voltage capability and reliability
• Low holding current facilitates operation with small load currents and minimizes EMI at commutation

Applications

• General purpose motor control
• General purpose bidirectional switching
• Phase control applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix /02,127 against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm packaging details such as tape and reel specifications. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements if mandated by the target application standards. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to confirm the validity of electrical parameters before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing directly with microcontrollers or logic circuits due to its sensitive gate characteristics. The four-quadrant triggering capability makes it suitable for AC phase control where gate polarity varies relative to MT2. Ensure the thermal management design accommodates the specified junction temperature limits under continuous operating conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BT136 series of glass passivated triacs intended for general purpose bidirectional switching. The 'E' suffix typically denotes a sensitive gate variant designed for low power trigger circuits. The '/02,127' suffix indicates specific packaging and ordering information defined by NXP Semiconductors for distribution channels.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other sensitive gate four quadrant triacs with matching 600V and 4A ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values when replacing with components from different manufacturers to ensure equivalent performance in existing circuit layouts.
