BTA316B-600C,118

Triacs Overview

The BTA316B-600C,118 is a planar passivated high commutation three-quadrant triac manufactured by WeEn Semiconductors. It is housed in a TO263 (D2PAK) plastic package designed for circuits experiencing high static and dynamic dV/dt and dI/dt conditions. The device supports an RMS current of 16 A with a peak non-repetitive on-state current of 140 A. It features a rated repetitive off-state voltage of 600 V and a maximum junction temperature of 125°C. The component operates without the need for a snubber circuit to commutate full rated RMS current at maximum junction temperature.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Planar passivated construction for enhanced reliability
• High commutation capability suitable for high dV/dt and dI/dt environments
• Snubberless operation at maximum rated junction temperature

Triacs Applications

• Industrial motor control systems
• High-frequency switching power supplies
• Lighting dimmer applications

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific orderable part number BTA316B-600C,118 against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure compatibility with the intended PCB footprint and thermal management requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free plating specifications directly from the supplier's latest product change notifications or datasheets prior to finalizing procurement decisions.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a through-hole equivalent is replaced by a surface-mount solution requiring high commutation performance. Ensure the application circuit can handle the 600 V blocking voltage and that the thermal design accommodates the 125°C maximum junction temperature limit inherent to the TO263 package configuration.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA316 series of three-quadrant triacs produced by WeEn Semiconductors. The 'Series C' designation indicates specific gate trigger characteristics and commutation capabilities distinct from other series variants within the same family. It serves as a robust alternative for high-power AC switching applications requiring compact surface-mount packaging.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include BTA316B-600C,118 from NXP Semiconductors, which shares identical electrical parameters and pinout configuration. Verify package dimensions and thermal pad specifications to ensure mechanical compatibility during substitution.
