BTA06-800CRG

Triacs Overview

The BTA06-800CRG is a Snubberless Triac manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for general-purpose AC power control applications. It features an RMS on-state current rating of 6 A and a repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM) of 800 V. The device supports non-repetitive surge currents up to 63 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Key electrical parameters include a maximum holding current of 50 mA, a gate trigger voltage of 1.3 V, and a gate trigger current of 50 mA. The component exhibits a typical on-state voltage of 1.55 V and a low off-state leakage current of 5 µA at VDRM. It is housed in a TO-220-3 package for through-hole mounting.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Snubberless design capability allows for simplified circuit layouts by eliminating the need for external RC snubber networks in many resistive and inductive loads.

Triacs Applications

• General-purpose AC power switching
• Lighting dimmer circuits
• Motor speed control

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RG' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS directives and REACH standards. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact voltage and current ratings required for the target application to avoid performance mismatches.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust 6 A triac with high voltage blocking capability is needed for through-hole assembly. The 800 V rating provides sufficient margin for standard mains voltages. Consider thermal management requirements due to the 1.55 V on-state voltage drop during conduction periods.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA06 series of Snubberless Triacs from STMicroelectronics. It shares the same functional characteristics as the BTA06-600C but offers a higher voltage rating of 800 V compared to the 600 V variant, providing greater flexibility for various AC line applications.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes with identical pinouts and specifications include the BTA06-800C or BTA06-800BWRG. Verify that any replacement maintains the 6 A current rating and 800 V voltage blocking capability.
