BTA208S-600D,118

Triacs Overview

The BTA208S-600D,118 is a planar passivated high commutation three-quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It is housed in a SOT428 (DPAK) surface-mountable plastic package, specifically TO252. The device features an RMS on-state current of 8 A and a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 65 A. Its rated repetitive off-state voltage is 600 V, with a maximum off-state leakage current of 100 uA at VDRM. The on-state voltage is 1.3 V, and the maximum holding current is 12 mA. Gate trigger voltage and current are both specified at a maximum of 5 mA for quadrants Q1, Q2, and Q3. The component supports a maximum junction temperature of +125 °C and is supplied in a 13-inch reel packaging format.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount solution is required for high commutation applications involving sensitive gate drive circuits. The DPAK package offers thermal efficiency suitable for industrial environments. Ensure the design accommodates the 600 V blocking capability and 8 A RMS current rating while considering the maximum junction temperature limit of 125 °C for reliable long-term operation under load.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA208S series of triacs from WeEn Semiconductors, which includes variants like the BTA208S-600B and BTA208S-600BT. These devices share the same core semiconductor structure but differ in packaging or specific electrical characteristics such as gate sensitivity and commutation capabilities. The 'Series D' designation indicates a balance between commutation performance and gate sensitivity tailored for modern digital control interfaces.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include BTA208S-600B,118 and BTA208S-600BT,118. Verify if the higher dV/dt rating of the Series B variant or different packing requirements of the BT variant align with the specific design constraints before substitution.
