BTA140-600G0Q

Triacs Overview

The BTA140-600G0Q is a planar passivated four-quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It is housed in a TO-220AB plastic package designed for through-hole mounting. The device supports an RMS on-state current of 25 A and withstands a repetitive peak off-state voltage of 600 V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum gate trigger current of 100 mA, a maximum holding current of 60 mA, and a peak on-state voltage of 1.55 V. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C junction temperature.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Planar passivation technology provides high bidirectional transient and blocking voltage capability.
• Four-quadrant sensitivity ensures reliable triggering across all gate polarities.
• Robust thermal cycling performance suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Triacs Applications

• Motor control systems
• Industrial static switching
• Domestic and industrial lighting control

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix G0Q against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the TO-220AB package. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly from the supplier's certificate of conformity prior to procurement.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25 A RMS current rating and 600 V blocking voltage are required in a through-hole configuration. Consider the 100 mA maximum gate trigger current for driver circuit design. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the 125°C maximum junction temperature limit and the TO-220AB package's thermal resistance characteristics.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA140 series of standard triacs from WeEn Semiconductors. It shares core electrical characteristics with variants such as BTA140-600,127 but may differ in packaging or ordering suffixes. The series is engineered for general-purpose power switching applications requiring high reliability and robust handling of transient voltages.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with BTA140-600,127 for equivalent electrical performance. Verify that alternative packages match the TO-220AB footprint. Confirm that gate trigger currents and holding currents remain within acceptable limits for the existing drive circuitry before substitution.
