BTA216X-600D,127

Triacs Overview

The BTA216X-600D,127 is a planar passivated high commutation three-quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It is housed in a SOT78 (TO-220AB) plastic package and designed for industrial applications. Key electrical parameters include a rated repetitive off-state voltage of 600 V, an RMS on-state current of 16 A, and a non-repetitive peak on-state current of 95 A. The device features a maximum gate trigger current of 5 mA across all quadrants and a dV/dt rating of 30 V/µs. It operates within a junction temperature range up to 125°C.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Balances commutation performance with gate sensitivity for interfacing with low power drivers including microcontrollers.

Triacs Applications

• Industrial circuits requiring high static and dynamic dV/dt and dI/dt handling.

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact ordering specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free conversion dates directly from the datasheet before procurement. Ensure the TO-220AB package matches the design requirements.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when interfacing with low power drivers such as microcontrollers that require balanced commutation and gate sensitivity. Verify that the 600 V blocking voltage and 16 A RMS current ratings meet the circuit demands. Consider the 30 V/µt dV/dt rating for noise immunity in the application environment.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA216 series of high commutation triacs. It is designated as a non-preferred triac for new designs, with the BTA316 series recommended instead. The 'D' suffix indicates the specific gate sensitivity and commutation characteristics of this variant within the family.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Official documentation recommends using the BTA316 series for new designs. Verify compatibility if substituting with other BTA216 variants, noting differences in gate trigger current and dV/dt ratings.
