BTA202W-1000ETF

Triacs Overview

The BTA202W-1000ETF is a planar passivated high commutation three quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It is housed in a SOT223 surface mountable plastic package and designed for motor control circuits where very high blocking voltage occurs. The device supports an RMS current of 2 A, a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 25 A, and a rated repetitive peak off-state voltage of 1000 V. It features a maximum gate trigger current of 10 mA across quadrants Q1, Q2, and Q3, with a dV/dt rating of 600 V/µs. The component operates within an industrial qualification range and supports a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Planar passivation technology provides exceptional high-voltage durability and robust safe-operating-area capability.
• High commutation performance ensures reliable operation in highly inductive loads and motor control circuits.
• Three-quadrant guaranteed commutation balances switching performance with gate sensitivity for low power drivers.

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'F' against official documentation to confirm surface mount marking standards and lead-free plating specifications. Ensure the orderable part number matches the required packaging format. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer's latest chemical content reports before finalizing procurement orders.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit designs require a surface mount solution for high voltage isolation up to 1000 V. The SOT223 package is suitable for automated assembly processes. Verify that the 2 A RMS current rating aligns with the load requirements and that the 150 °C thermal limit accommodates the system's heat dissipation constraints without additional cooling.

Triacs Part Context

This triac belongs to the BTA202 series from WeEn Semiconductors, which utilizes advanced planar passivation technology. The series is engineered for high-voltage and high-temperature durability. The BTA202W-1000ETF specifically addresses the need for compact surface mount packaging while maintaining the robust commutation characteristics typical of the broader BTA202 family.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other SOT223 packaged triacs offering 1000 V blocking voltage and 2 A RMS current. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values to ensure equivalent performance in existing layouts.
