BT236X-800,127

Triacs Overview

The BT236X-800,127 is a high-power RAIL Triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It features an RMS on-state current of 16 A and a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 145 A. The device supports a rated repetitive off-state voltage (VDRM) of 800 V with a maximum leakage current of 100 uA at VDRM. Key electrical parameters include a holding current maximum of 30 mA, a gate trigger voltage of 700 mV, and a gate trigger current of 22 mA. The component operates within a temperature range up to +125 C and utilizes a TO-220F-3 package for through-hole mounting.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Sensitive gate design enabling reliable triggering across all four quadrants
• Rail-insulated lead frame construction providing enhanced thermal performance and robust mechanical stability
• Glass passivation ensuring protection against environmental stress and moisture ingress

Triacs Applications

• High-power motor speed control systems
• Industrial heating regulation circuits
• Lighting dimmer applications requiring high current handling

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the exact packaging configuration and reel specifications required for your assembly process. Confirm RoHS compliance status and REACH SVHC declarations directly from the manufacturer's latest documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when an RMS current rating of 16 A and a blocking voltage of 800 V are required. Ensure the application circuit can provide the specified gate trigger current of 22 mA for reliable turn-on. Verify that the thermal management solution accommodates the power dissipation characteristics in the TO-220F-3 package.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BT236X series of sensitive gate triacs designed for general-purpose bidirectional switching. It serves as a high-current alternative to lower-rated devices in the BT13x family, offering increased power handling capabilities while maintaining compatibility with standard phase-control driving circuits.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements may include other 16 A, 800 V RAIL Triacs from the same manufacturer or equivalent industry standards such as the BTA16 series, provided the gate sensitivity and thermal characteristics match the original design requirements.
