L6004L3TP

Triacs Overview

The Littelfuse L6004L3TP is a four-quadrant logic level triac housed in a TO-220AB through-hole package. It features a 4 A RMS on-state current rating and supports a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V. The device exhibits a maximum gate trigger current of 10 mA and a peak gate power dissipation of 0.3 W. Electrical characteristics include a holding current of 20 mA, a surge current rating of 55 A, and a peak on-state voltage of 1.6 V. The component operates within a temperature range from -40°C to 125°C.

Triacs Feature Summary

• Logic level sensitivity enables direct drive from low-power digital circuits or microcontrollers without requiring high gate currents.
• Four-quadrant operation ensures reliable triggering across all combinations of main terminal and gate polarities.

Triacs Applications

• Lighting control systems for residential and commercial applications
• Solid-state relays requiring compact form factors
• AC motor speed control circuits

Triacs Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TP' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout orientation and packaging specifications. Ensure that the 400 V voltage rating aligns with the circuit requirements. Confirm compliance with RoHS directives if environmental regulations apply to the assembly process.

Triacs Selection Notes

Select this component when a sensitive gate triac is required for low-power control interfaces. The TO-220AB package provides adequate thermal management for moderate current loads. Verify that the 4 A RMS rating meets the continuous load demands and that the 55 A surge capability handles inrush currents without damage.

Triacs Part Context

This part belongs to the Lxx04xx series of sensitive and standard triacs manufactured by Littelfuse under the Teccor brand. The series offers various voltage ratings and gate sensitivities packaged in TO-220AB housings for general-purpose AC switching applications.

Triacs Replacement Considerations

The L6004L3V from Teccor Electronics is documented as a corresponding alternative within the same series. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution.
