BTA06-800TWRG

Triacs Overview

The BTA06-800TWRG is a general-purpose AC switch triac from STMicroelectronics, rated for an RMS on-state current of 6 A and a repetitive peak off-state voltage of 800 V. It utilizes a TO-220AB through-hole package with an isolated tab. The device features a maximum gate trigger current of 50 mA and a gate trigger voltage of 3.5 V. It supports a non-repetitive surge current of 47 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The component exhibits a peak on-state voltage of 1.6 V and a holding current of 50 mA.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Snubberless design optimized for high commutation performance on inductive loads
• Fully insulated package providing 2500 Vrms isolation between the tab and terminals
• UL 1557 certified for industrial safety compliance

Triacs Applications

• Static relays
• Heating regulation systems
• Induction motor starting circuits
• Light dimmers
• Motor speed controllers

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TWRG' against official STMicroelectronics documentation to confirm RoHS compliance and tape-and-reel packaging specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required insulation class and thermal characteristics for the intended application environment.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6 A switching capacity at 800 V is required for AC load control. The Snubberless architecture allows for simplified circuit designs by reducing external snubber components, particularly suitable for driving inductive loads such as motors and transformers without complex gate drive networks.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA series of standard and Snubberless triacs designed for general-purpose AC switching applications. The series offers various voltage ratings and current capacities, utilizing robust TO-220 packages with internal ceramic pads for electrical isolation and thermal management in industrial environments.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the BTB06-800TWRG and BTA06-600TWRG, provided the voltage rating meets the circuit requirements. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
