BTB24-600BWRG

Triacs Overview

The BTB24-600BWRG is a Snubberless TRIAC manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for general-purpose mains power AC switching. It features a 600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage and supports an RMS on-state current of 25 A with a non-repetitive surge current capability of 260 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C and utilizes a TO-220-3 through-hole package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum holding current of 75 mA, a gate trigger voltage of 1.3 V, and a gate trigger current of 50 mA.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Snubberless design eliminates the need for external RC snubber networks in many applications
• High commutation capability supporting both four-quadrant and three-quadrant triggering
• Low thermal resistance construction utilizing clip bonding technology

Triacs Applications

• General purpose mains power AC switching
• Solid state relays
• Motor speed control circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and compliance status. Confirm RoHS 2002/95/EC compliance and UL 1557 recognition requirements for your target market. Ensure the ordering code matches the exact thermal and mechanical specifications required for the final assembly process.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25 A RMS current rating and 600 V blocking voltage are required for AC load control. The integrated Snubberless architecture simplifies circuit design by reducing component count. Verify that the gate drive circuit can supply at least 50 mA to ensure reliable triggering across the specified temperature range.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the BTA24/BTB24/T25 series of high-current TRIACs from STMicroelectronics. The BTB prefix indicates a surface-mount compatible leaded package variant, specifically the TO-220-3 form factor. This series is engineered for industrial and consumer applications requiring robust AC switching performance.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

The BTA24-600BWRG serves as a pin-compatible alternative within the same family, offering identical electrical characteristics but potentially differing in physical mounting orientation or packaging details. Verify mechanical dimensions before substitution.
